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 hear t beat. During this time, the
system is analyzing and locking in your heart rate. Within about 15
seconds, your digital heart rate in b eats 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.
