Each time you use the chest pulse sensor, use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.

Make sure that you are within arm’s length of the console. For the console to display heart rate readings, the user must be within arm’s length of the console.
