PULSE GRIPS
Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your
heart rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When
gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure.
Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the grip pulse
handlebars. Make sure to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.
IMPORTANT: The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips can
provide a relative estimation of your actual heart rate, they should not be relied on when accurate readings are
necessary. Some people, including those in a cardiac rehab program, may benefit from using an alternate heart
rate monitoring system like a chest or wrist strap. Various factors, including movement of the user, may affect
the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid in determining
heart rate trends in general. Please consult your physician.
