pulse sensor, |

your heart rate, |
|
hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands or gripping the contacts tightly.
When your pulse is detected, two or three dashes will appear in the display and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Be care- ful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal contacts tightly. For optimal performance, clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemi- cals to clean the contacts.

The fan has high and low speed settings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan.

When you are finished exercising, unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the electrical components of the elliptical exer- ciser may wear prematurely.
