Pool Swimming
NOTICE
Hand wash the heart rate monitor after
exposure to chlorine or other pool chemicals.
Prolonged exposure to these substances can
damage the heart rate monitor.
The HRM-Tri accessory is designed primarily
for open water swimming, but it can be used
occasionally for pool swimming. The heart rate
monitor should be worn under a swim suit or
triathlon top during pool swimming. Otherwise,
it may slide down your chest when pushing off
the pool wall.
Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly
on your skin, just below your sternum. It should
be snug enough to stay in place during your
activity.

If necessary, attach the strap extender to

on the back of
the heart rate monitor to create a strong
connection between your chest and the
transmitter.
