Displaying Heart Rate
In order for the Cybex 445T to display your heart rate, hold the handgrips to use Contact
Heart Rate or wear a Polar® compatible heart rate chest strap.
Contact Heart Rate — Hold the handgrips on the console handrail until a heart rate is
displayed, typically less than thirty seconds. For best results, hold the handgrips lightly and
ensure that your hands contact both the front and back sensors of each grip. NOTE: Hold
your hands as steady as possible as movement can cause interference on the contacts.
Factors that can interfere with the heart rate signal include:
• excessive movement
• body composition
• hydration
• too loose grip
• too tight grip
• running
• excessive dirt, powder or oil
• leaning or resting on grips
NOTE: Cybex does not recommend continuous holding onto the contact heart rate grips
during exercise.
Contaminants, such as hand lotions, oils or body powder, may come off on the contact
heart rate grips. These can reduce sensitivity and interfere with the heart rate signal. It is
recommended that the user have clean hands when using the contact heart rate.
