3.The headband must be worn with the sensor win- dow centered on your forehead (see HOW TO PUT ON THE PULSE SENSOR on page 8). The small button next to the sensor window must be de- pressed. Make sure that there is no hair in front of the pulse sensor or between the sensor window and your forehead.
Note: If the pulse sensor does not detect your pulse when the sensor window is centered on your fore- head, try positioning the sensor window above your right or left eyebrow. Depending on the shape of your forehead, your pulse may be detected more easily from a slightly different position.
4.Avoid turning your head more than 30° away from the console, or the console may not pick up the sig- nal from the pulse sensor.
5.The sensor window should be cleaned weekly when the treadmill is used regularly. Moisten a cotton swab with water, and carefully wipe the sensor window.
6.Because your pulse constantly changes, the pulse sensor will sample and average your pulse every few seconds. When you first put on the pulse sen- sor, it may take up to ten seconds before an accu- rate pulse is shown.
7.If the pulse sensor does not function properly, check the batteries (see HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES on page 8).
HOW TO SOLVE COMMON PULSE PROBLEMS
1.If you are wearing the pulse sensor and the NO PULSE DETECTED indicator lights:
See guidelines 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on page 8 and this page.
2.If the pulse shown in the PULSE display seems excessively high or low:
See guideline 6 on this page.
3.If the error code “E5” appears in the PULSE display:
See guidelines 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on page 8 and this page.
4.If the letters “PLS” appear in the PULSE display:
See guidelines 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on page 8 and this page.
HOW TO CLEAN THE PULSE SENSOR AND HEADBAND
To clean the pulse sensor, first remove the headband. Wipe the pulse sensor clean with a damp cloth. Never immerse the pulse sensor in water.
To clean the headband, hand wash it in mild detergent, gently wring it out, and allow it to air dry.
