Handling the pulse(earlobe) sensor
This model detects and displays your pulse rate during exercise by the pulse sensor from your earlobe. Being a sensitive electronic part, the pulse sensor must be handled with sufficient care.
1Installing the pulse sensor
•Insert the pulse sensor plug into the pulse sensor jack on the back of the control unit, and hang the sensor cable on the cable hook.
•Attach the cable holder at the bot- tom of the seat pipe.
•Insert the sensor cable through the 3 cable hooks and cable holder. Hold the cable in position by attaching the sensor clip at the bend of the handlebar.
•Allow enough slack in cable under the seat pipe for seat adjustment.
2Use of sensor clip
•Always clip the pulse sensor to the sensor clip when it is not being used. This sensor clip can also be used to adjust the slack of the cable.

3Using pulse sensor during exercise
• Clip the pulse sensor at the center |
of your either ear lobe. |
• Ear rings or other ornaments must |
be removed before attaching the |
sensor and during exercise. |
• When it is cold, massage your ear- |
lobe before use to improve blood |
circulation. |
• Try not to change the position of |
the pulse sensor during the exer- |
cise. |
• If the E symbol frequently lights |
up during use, remove once and |
• Attach the cable clip to your |
clothes to prevent excessive swing- |
ing of the sensor cable. |
• Always keep the pulse sensor at- |
tached on the sensor clip when it is |
not in use. This sensor clip can also |
be used to adjust the slack of the |
Caution: Treat the pulse sen- sor with care. The cable can be damaged if pulled strongly.
4Checking the Pulse Sensor
•You can check the function of the pulse sensor on the LCD screen during the exercise.
•Remove the pulse sensor from your earlobe during exercise, then close it.
•The pulse sensor is normal if the pulse rate drops to zero and the symbol goes out.
•If the pulse rate does not drop to
zero or if the symbol remains, the cable may be disconnected. If the cable proves to be discon- nected, replace the pulse sensor with a new one (sold separately).
