Wearing a Chest Strap

During a workout, the heart rate features appear on the display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an accurate reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct contact with your skin.

1.Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water Refer to Diagram 8.

Note: Do not use deionized water. It does not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical impulses.

2.Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The strap should feel snug, not restrictive. Refer to Diagram 9.

3.Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies horizontally across your chest, and is centered in the middle of your chest. Refer to Diagram 10.

Diagram 10: Fasten chest strap

After you put on the chest strap, face the display console for a few seconds. This allows the receiver in the console to recognize the signal from the chest strap.
