Contact Heart Rate
CHAPTER ONE: BASIC OPERATION 
Contact
Heart Rate
(CHR)
The contact heart rate (CHR) system lets you monitor your heart rate without wearing a strap.
Gently grasp the contact heart rate pads as shown.
When the system detects your hands, the Heart Rate label will start flashing in time with your heart beat. During this time, the system is analyzing and locking in your heart rate. Within about 15 seconds, your digital heart rate in beats per minute (bpm) should be displayed.
Important: The CHR System should only be used at speeds of
4 mph or lower. Above this speed the CHR accuracy is unavoidably unreliable due to large muscle movements.
