TELEMETRIC HEART RATE HEART
HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The S90 is fitted with an internal heart rate
receiver to make them compatible with Polar
telemetric heart rate transmitters. The transmitter
may be purchased as an accessory. Exercise
within different heart rate ranges affects the body
in different ways. For example, exercise of long
duration within a heart rate range that is about
50-60 % of the maximum heart rate burns fat,
or helps you lose weight, whereas exercise in
a range that is about 70-80 % of the maximum
develops the heart and respiratory system,
and overall endurance, i.e. it improves your
condition.
If you don’t know your own maximum heart rate
you can use the following formula as a guide:
208 – 0,7 X AGE
However, it is advisable to make sure by
consulting your doctor.
The most reliable heart rate measurement is
achieved with a telemetric device, in which the
electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest
transmit the pulses from the heart to the meter by
means of an electromagnetic field.
NOTE! If you have a heart pacemaker, you may
use the heart rate measurement transmitter only
on a physician’s approval!
If you want to measure your heart rate this
way during your workout, moisten the grooved
electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva or
water. Fasten the transmitter just below the chest
with the elastic belt, firmly enough so that the
electrodes remain in contact with the skin, but
not so tight that normal breathing is prevented.
The transmitter automatically transmits the heart
rate 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.
MAINTENANCE
The S90 requires very little maintenance. Check,
however, from time to time that all screws and
nuts are tight, and apply light grease or vaseline
to the pivot points of the shocks if necessary.
Clean the climber from dirt and dust with a damp
cloth or towel. Do not use solvents.
If the device is not functioning properly during
use, contact your Tunturi dealer immediately.
Always give the model (S90) and the serial
number of your device.
Despite continuous quality control, faults or
malfunctions due to individual components may
arise. It is, however, unnecessary to send the
whole device to be repaired as the fault can
in most cases be repaired by replacing the
component in question.
CHANGING THE BATTERIES
If the meter display becomes very weak or
there is no display at all, change the batteries.
Remove the meter from its mount on top of the
main mast. Open the battery cover on the back
of the meter case and remove the old batteries.
Insert new batteries (two 1.5 V AA-batteries) to
the battery case following the + and - markings.
Push the battery case cover back into place. Slide
the meter onto its mounting on top of the vertical
frame.
STORAGE
To prevent malfunctioning, store the stepper in a
dry space with as little temperature variation as
possible, protected from dust.
