THE HEART RATE FEATURE AND TARGET ZONES

To use the heart rate features, you must wear a POLAR® chest strap or grasp both grips on the handlebars while working out. A transmitter sends your heart rate signal to the receiver installed in the display console. The signal appears as your pulse rate on the display. During your workout, the heart rate indicator lights, begins blinking and then, displays your heart rate. This lets you see what your heart rate is doing even when the display is presenting other workout statistics.
