AccuTrack Contact Heart Rate Monitoring System™
The AccuTrack Contact Heart Rate Monitoring System™ can be used in place of the wireless chest strap to perform any of
the following functions:
• Monitor your Time in Zone
• Control HRC programs
• Help you maintain your Target Pulse
1.
Use the NEXT button to switch to any screen that shows Pulse (see above).
2.
Grab on to the pulse grips.
3.
As soon as you put your hands on the grips the pulse will flash. This indicates that the system has
been activated.
4.
Pulse will “beat” briefly and then display your heart rate. Your heart rate will be continuously monitored while your
hands remain on the grips.
NOTE: If you are wearing the wireless chest strap, the AccuTrack system will override the wireless signal while your hands
are on the bar. Once you release the AccuTrack bar, the treadmill will then default back to the wireless chest strap signal.
The HRC programs will continue to make speed and elevation adjustments to keep you at your target heart rate while your
hands remain on the grips. If you remove your hands the HRC programs will not make any speed or elevation changes until
you place your hands on the grips again.
The AccuTrack system is designed to be used at walking speeds. A natural running motion involves using your arms to
maintain balance. Since contact heart rate systems require your arms to remain stationary, we recommend using the system
only at speeds of less than approximately 4 mph (6.4 km/h) or the fastest speed at which you are comfortable walking.
