USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION
The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips 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.
WIRELESS HEART RATE RECEIVER
When used in conjunction with a
wireless chest transmitter, your heart rate can
be transmitted wirelessly to the unit and displayed on the console.
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.
WARNING!
Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result in serious
injury or death. If you feel faint, stop exercising immediately.
