WIRELESS HEART RATE RECEIVER

Some treadmills also include a built-in wireless heart rate receiver. When used in conjunction with a wireless chest transmitter, your

heart rate can be transmitted wirelessly to the treadmill and displayed on the console. Your treadmill may or may not include a wireless

chest transmitter (see the beginning of the ASSEMBLY section of your ASSEMBLY GUIDE).

Prior to wearing the wireless chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes with water. Center the chest strap just

below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly over your sternum, with the logo facing out. NOTE: The chest strap must be tight and

properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive

an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout.

USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION

Your treadmill could be equipped with either heart rate pulse grips or a thumb pulse sensor. To find out what your model has, refer

to the beginning of the ASSEMBLY section of your ASSEMBLY GUIDE.

The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips or a thumb pulse sensor can provide a

relative estimation of your actual heart rate, they should not be relied on when accurate readings are necessary. Some people,

including those in a cardiac rehab program, may benefit from using an alternate heart rate monitoring system like a chest or wrist

strap. Various factors, including movement of the user, may affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading

is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. Please consult your physician.

PULSE GRIPS

Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to register.

It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip

tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may experience an erratic readout if

consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars. Make sure to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.

THUMB PULSE

Place and hold your thumb LIGHTLY over the thumb sensor. The sensor may not work properly if you press too hard. The sensor

window should be completely covered by your finger. Wait for a few seconds, and your heart rate will show in the heart rate window.

The thumb sensor can also read a pulse from your index finger.

Always stand still on side rails when measuring your heart rate. Checking your heart rate while in motion will cause inaccurate

readings. Do not press excessively hard on the sensor as this may cause damage.
