6.3TROUBLESHOOTING THE HEART RATE CHEST STRAP

HEART RATE READING IS ERRATIC OR ABSENT ENTIRELY

Repeat the electrode wetting procedure (see How to Use the Optional Heart Rate Monitor Chest Strap). The electrodes must be wet to pick up and transmit accurate heart rate readings.

Make sure the electrodes are flat against the skin.

Wash the belt transmitter regularly with mild soap and water.

Make sure the chest strap transmitter is within three feet (one meter) of the heart rate receiver.

The chest strap is battery operated and will eventually stop functioning. If the chest strap transmitter battery is depleted, contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services at 1-800- 351-3737 for instructions on how to have the chest strap replaced.

HEART RATE READING IS ERRATIC OR EXTREMELY HIGH

When exercising with the optional heart rate chest strap, the user may come within range of electromagnetic signals strong enough to cause abnormally elevated heart rate readings. Possible sources of such signals include

Television sets and/or antennas, cell phones, computers, cars, high voltage power lines and motor driven exercise equipment.

Another heart rate transmitter within three feet (one meter) may also cause abnormal heart rate readings.

6.4TROUBLESHOOTING THE LIFEPULSE SENSORS

If the heart rate reading is erratic or missing, check the following:

Dry the hands if necessary to prevent slipping.

Apply hands to all four sensors; two in each hand.

Grasp the sensors firmly.

Apply constant pressure around the sensors.
