The convenient pulse sensor allows you to measure
your heart rate periodically. You can measure your
heart rate before you begin exercising, during your
workout, and again when you finish.
Note: Before
the pulse sen-
sor can be
used, the pro-
tective vinyl
covering must
be peeled off
the metal con-
tacts on the
front and rear
of each pulse
grip.
To use the pulse sensor, first make sure that the
power is turned on. Stop exercising, rest both feet on
the floor, and place your hands on the metal contacts.
Your palms must be resting on the inner contacts and
your fingers must be touching the outer contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. After a moment, the heart
indicator in the PULSE display will flash and your heart
rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15
seconds.
HAND PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING
¥ Avoid moving your hands while using the pulse sen-
sor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart
rate readings. If the pulse sensor is not used correct-
ly, the heart indicator will flash repeatedly in the
PULSE display but your heart rate will not be shown.
¥ Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so
may interfere with heart rate readings.
¥ Do not move your hands while you hold the metal
contacts; your muscle movement may interfere with
heart rate readings.
¥ For the most accurate heart rate reading, wait for
about 15 seconds.
¥ For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep
the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be
cleaned with a soft clothÑnever use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
