Heart Rate Monitors
The Cardio Treadmill offers two separate heart rate monitoring systems: The wireless heart rate chest strap
transmitter (residential product only) and the Contact Heart Rate Monitoring System.
KEEPS YOU SAFE
Exercising too hard can put you at risk for injury. A heart rate transmitter reminds you of the safe and effective heart rate
intensity at which you should exercise and warns you when your workouts are too strenuous.
KEEPS YOU IN YOUR ZONE
If you want to reach your exercise goals, it’s important to stay in your target heart rate zone during workouts. A heart rate
transmitter is your constant reminder of the intensity and quality of each workout session.
SAVES YOU TIME
Our wireless heart rate transmitter is easy to use, so you can view valuable heart rate information at any time during
exercise without interrupting or stopping your workout.
WIRELESS HEART RATE CHEST STRAP TRANSMITTER
(shown below)
To use the Wireless Chest Strap follow these steps:
SECURE THE CHEST STRAP
Center the transmitter on the chest as high under the pectoral muscles (breasts) as possible. Tighten the strap so that the
belt is as tight as possible without being uncomfortable.
APPLY CARDIO GEL TO THE ELECTRODES
A tube of Landice Cardio Gel was shipped with your treadmill. Pull the
belt away from your chest and apply a small dab of gel to each
electrode. This will ensure a strong electrical contact between the
transmitter and your chest.
The Heart Rate Transmitter works best against bare skin. Since sweat
(saltwater) is an electrical conductor, the transmitter will work over a
T-shirt if the shirt is wet with sweat. If you are having trouble getting an
accurate pulse reading, try wearing the belt against bare skin.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The transmitter activates when the electrodes have a proper contact. In order to conserve battery life, wipe the electrodes
dry when not in use. Clean monthly with mild soap and water and wipe dry. Do not use abrasives as they can cause
permanent damage to the electrodes. Do not bend or stretch the electrode strips, especially when storing the transmitter.
