Using the Heart Rate Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips

While exercising, you must grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips for a minimum of five to ten seconds to transmit your heart rate to the display. Refer to Diagram 6.

Diagram 6: Touch-sensitive handrail grips

Usually, the concentration of salts in a person’s perspiration provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the receiver inside the display console. However, some people, because of body chemistry or erratic heart beats cannot use the touch-sensitive heart rate feature on the treadmill. A chest strap may provide better results.

Important: While exercising, do not grasp the touch- sensitive handrail grips and wear the chest strap at the same time. The touch-sensitive handrail grips override the signals from the chest strap transmitter. If used together, inconsistent readings may occur.
