THE LIFEPULSETM DIGITAL HEART RATE MONITORING SYSTEM

The patented Lifepulse system sensors are the built-in heart rate monitoring system. For the most accurate reading pos- sible, during a workout:

•Grasp the sensors (A) firmly.

•Hold each sensor at the horizontal (treadmill, recumbent bike and upright bike) or vertical mid point (cross-trainer and upright bike).

•Keep hands steady and in place.

The console displays the heart rate within 10 to 40 seconds af ter the user grasps the sensors. The following factors may affect a Lifepulse reading: incorrect hand placement on the sensors, upper body activity , lotion or dirt on hands, and excessive or insufficient pressure used when gripping the sensors.
