The transmitter automatically transmits the pulse reading to the meter up to a distance of about 1 m.

If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten

the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the shirt.

The pulse value is displayed in the lower right-hand display of the meter.

Follow your pulse during the training and especially the

heart indicator light next to the PULSE text. The light should flash in time with your heartbeat. If the indicator begins to function in a disturbing fashion (e.g. additional beats or abnormal fluctuations), the pulse measurement is not functioning properly.

REMARKS ON

TELEMETRIC PULSE MEASUREMENT

N.B. IF YOU HAVE A HEART PACEMAKER, YOU MAY USE THE PULSE MEASUREMENT TRANSMITTER ONLY ON A PHYSICIAN'S APPROVAL!

If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the pulse reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the electrodes to warm up properly to ensure accurate pulse measurement.

If there are several telemetric pulse measurement devices next to each other, the distance between them should be at least 1.5 m. Similarily, if there is only one receiver and several transmitters in use, only one person with a transmitter should be within transmission range.

The transmitter is switched to an active state only when it is being used for measurement. Sweat and other moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state and waste battery energy. Therefore it is important to dry the electrodes carefully after use.

4. MAINTENANCE

The TriStepper 900 requires very little maintenance. Check, however, from time to time the condition of the rubber retraction bands. Tilt the stepper on its side to inspect the rubber bands at the bottom of the stepper. If the bands are worn or frayed, contact your local TUNTURI representative to have the bands replaced.

To avoid premature wear on the chain mechanism and to lower the noise level of the stepper, it is recommended to lubricate the pedal chains with vaseline.

Check from time to time that all fastening screws and nuts are tight. Clean the stepper with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents.

Although the device operates with a 12 V protective voltage we recommend the following adjustment to be carried out only by a person qualified to service electro- mechanical appliances according to the legislation of your country.

In spite of continuous quality control, individual defects and malfunctions may occur due to individual components. It is in most cases unnecessary to take the whole device for repair, as it is usually sufficient to replace the defective part.

If you notice any defects or malfunctions in the device during use, contact your dealer immediately. Always give the serial number of your device!

5. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

The stepper is easy to move by pushing along on the built-in transportation wheels. Unplug the transformer from the power source and from the connector in the lower left hand corner of the side of the pulley cover. Take hold of the handlebar from the back, tilt the stepper forward and push along the floor on the wheels at the bottom of the main mast.

To prevent malfunctioning of the stepper, store it in a dry place with as little temperature variation as possible, protected against dust.
