Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either | |
the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional | |
chest pulse sensor. Note: If you hold the | |

pulse sensor at the same time, the console | |
may not display your heart rate accurately. | |
If there are |
|
thin sheets of |
|
plastic on the |
|
metal con- |
|
tacts on the |
|
handgrip |
|

plastic. To |
|
measure your |
|
heart rate, hold the contacts; your palms must be | |
resting on the contacts closest to you, and your | |
fingers must be touching the opposite contacts. | |
Avoid moving your hands. |
When your pulse is detected, the Heart Rate indicator above the lower display will light, one or two dashes (–
the lower display, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds.
Note: If you continue to hold the pulse sensor, the lower display will show your heart rate for up to
30 seconds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other modes.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Avoid moving your hands excessively or squeezing the metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, periodically clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.

If the pedals are not moved for up to one minute, the matrix and the displays will darken; however, the displays will not be reset. If the pedals are not moved for about five minutes, the console will turn off and the displays will be reset.
