WEARING THE TRANSMITTER BELT

To ensure a proper heart rate detection, the chest transmitter must be moistened and properly adjusted.

	1. Snap the plastic tabs at the end of the
	adjustable strap into the holes at the end of
	the transmitter.
	2. Moisten the electrode areas —located to
Electrode areas
	the right and left on the back side of the

GETTING STARTED

4.Wear the wrist receiver as you would any wrist watch. Keep the wrist receiver and the transmitter within 3 feet/1 meter of each other.

1.In dry and cold climates it may take a few minutes of use for the electrodes to soften and a layer of perspiration to form between the contact and the skin for good performance. Moistening the electrodes with saliva or conductive gel can speed up this process.

2.To ensure the most accurate operation we recommend wearing the chest transmitter against your bare skin. Users with a lot of chest hair may have a problem getting contact between the trans- mitter electrode areas and their skin, resulting in poor performance. Because of this it may be necessary for these individuals to shave the area of their chest beneath the transmitter.

3.Do not use water, moisturizing creams or suntan oil, as these are insulators and will interfere with the heart rate signal.
