NordicTrack NTHK22490 user manual Heart Rate Monitor Care and Maintenance, Tery make sure, Battery

•If the heart rate monitor still does not function prop- erly, test the heart rate monitor in the following way:

HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Hold the heart rate monitor and place your thumbs over the elec- trode areas as shown.

Electrode Areas

• Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each

use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the

electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate

monitor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off

when it is removed and the electrode areas are

dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each

use, it may remain activated longer than necessary,

draining the battery prematurely.

Next, hold the

heart rate monitor near the console.

While holding one thumb stationary, begin tapping the other thumb against the electrode area at a rate of about one tap per second.

Check the heart rate reading on the console.

•If the heart rate monitor does not function properly after you have followed all of the above instructions, the battery should be replaced in the following way:

Locate the battery cover on the back of the sensor unit. Insert a coin into the slot in the cover, turn the cover coun- terclockwise, and remove it.

Remove the old
battery and insert a
new CR 2032 bat-	CR 2032
tery; make sure
	Battery
that the battery is
turned so the
writing is on top.
Replace the bat-
tery cover and turn
it clockwise to
close it.

•	Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.
	Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag
	or other container that may trap moisture.
•	Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct
	sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
	the heart rate monitor to temperatures above 122°
	Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit
	(-10° Celsius).
•	Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
	when using or storing the heart rate monitor.
•	Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
	use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
	strap may be hand washed and air dried.
