The convenient pulse sensor allows you to measure
your heart rate at any time during your workouts. You
can measure your heart rate before you begin exercis-
ing, while you exercise, and again when you finish.
To use the pulse
sensor, first
make sure that
the power is
turned on. Next,
stop exercising,
rest both feet on
the floor, and
place your
hands on the
metal contacts
of the pulse sen-
sor. Your palms must be resting on the inner con-
tacts and your fingers must be touching the outer
contacts. Avoid moving your hands. After a moment,
the heart indicator in the display will flash and your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate read-
ing, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING
¥ Avoid moving your hands while using the pulse sen-
sor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart
rate readings. If the pulse sensor is not used correct-
ly, the heart indicator in the display will flash repeat-
edly but your heart rate will not be shown.
¥ If an ÒLÓ appears in the display, the pulse sensor is
receiving too little pulse information to accurately
calculate your pulse. If an ÒHÓ appears, the pulse
sensor is receiving too much pulse information. Let
go of the metal contacts, and then place your hands
on the contacts again. Your palms must be resting
on the inner contacts and your fingers must be
touching the outer contacts.
¥ Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so
may interfere with heart rate readings.
¥ For the most accurate heart rate reading, wait for
about 15 seconds.
¥ For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep
the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be
cleaned with a soft clothÑdo not use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
