    Is it the wrist watch kind or does it have a chest strap? If its the wrist watch kind there should be a button to change the mode (clock, stopwatch, calories, etc). On mine the screen has a "CA" on it. You have to push the start/stop button when you begin your workout and periodically check your heart rate through out your workout to find out how many calories were burned. :smile:
