HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

If the heart rate monitor looks like the one shown

in drawing 1, press the transmitter (A) onto the snap

fasteners on the chest strap (B). If the heart rate

monitor looks like the one shown in drawing 2,

insert the tab (C) on one end of the chest strap (D) into

one end of the transmitter (E). Then, press the end of

the transmitter under the buckle (F) on the chest strap;

the tab should be flush with the transmitter.

Next, wrap the heart

rate monitor around

your chest in the loca-

tion shown; the heart

rate monitor must be

under your clothes,

tight against your skin.

Make sure that the logo

is right-side-up. Then, attach the other end of the chest

strap. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary.

Next, pull the trans-

mitter and the chest

strap away from your

body a few inches

and locate the two

electrode areas (G).

Using saliva or con-

tact lens solution, wet the electrode areas. Then, return

the transmitter and the chest strap to a position against

your chest.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Thoroughly dry the electrode areas with a soft towel

after each use. Moisture may keep the heart rate

monitor activated, shortening the life of the battery.

• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do

not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or

other container that may trap moisture.

• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sun-

light for extended periods of time, and do not expose

it to temperatures above 122°F (50°C) or below 14°F

(-10°C).

• Do not excessively bend or stretch the heart rate

monitor when using or storing it.

• To clean the transmitter, use a damp cloth and a

small amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the transmit-

ter with a damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft

towel. Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals

to clean the transmitter. Hand wash and air dry the

chest strap.

TROUBLESHOOTING

• If the heart rate monitor does not function when posi-

tioned as described at the left, move it slightly lower

or higher on your chest.

• If heart rate readings are not displayed until you

begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.

• For the console to display heart rate readings, you

must be within arm’s length of the console.

• If there is a battery cover on the back of the trans-

mitter, replace the battery with a new battery of the

same type.

• The heart rate monitor is designed to work with

people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate

reading problems may be caused by medical condi-

tions such as premature ventricular contractions

(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.

• The operation of the heart rate monitor can be

affected by magnetic interference from high power

lines or other sources. If you suspect that magnetic

interference is causing a problem, try relocating the

fitness equipment.
