HOW TO USE THE LIFEPULSE DIGITAL HEART RATE SENSORS

The patented Lifepulse digital heart rate sensors are the default heart rate monitoring system on the Lifecycle 9500HR exercise bike. To use the Lifepulse sensors, sim- ply grasp the stainless steel sensors in the handlebars when the display console prompts you to do so or anytime you wish to check your heart rate. There are four sensors, two on each side of the handlebar, and you must make contact with all four to obtain your heart rate. The console will display your ECG-accurate heart rate in 10 to 30 seconds.

HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE ZONE TRAINER CHEST STRAP

Wet the electrodes of the transmitter (the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap) and secure the strap as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal breathing.

The transmitter strap will deliver an opti- mum heart rate reading when the elec- trodes are directly in contact with bare skin. It will also, however, function properly through wet, lightweight

clothing. The key is for the electrodes to remain wet so that they can con- duct the electrical impuls- es of the heart back to the receiver.

If it becomes necessary to remoist-

en the chest strap transmitter, grasp the Zone Trainer chest strap transmitter center of the strap, pull it away from the

chest to expose the two electrodes, then moisten them in this position.
