Heart Rate Features

Heart rate and SmartRate

®

features are available when the

heart rate receiver is installed in the display console and you
wear a chest strap. When a heart beat is detected, the heart
rate display shows your heart rate and the SmartRate LED
pulses and indicates your target zone.

Guidelines

Read the following before using the heart rate feature.

• Consult your physician before engaging in any vigorous

exercise. Do not use the heart rate features until
authorized by your physician.

• Know your heart rate (pulse) and your physician-

recommended heart rate target zone. Individual heart
rates vary according to several physiological factors and
may not correspond directly with Diagram 6.

Diagram 6: Heart rate target zones
