HEART RATE MONITORING
Heart rate monitoring allows you to determine if your workout is too challenging or not challenging
enough. You may use a heart rate strap (not provided with the equipment), or you can simply grasp the
silver contact heart rate grips.
NOTE:
The Heart Rate monitor is not a medical test, nor is it designed as a medical test. It is simply a guide to target heart rate training. Please
consult with your physician prior to engaging in any strenuous physical activity.
IMPORTANT:
The manufacturer does not warranty the heart rate system performance on this product, as the heart rate system performance
varies, based on a user's physiology, fitness level, age, method of use and other factors. Furthermore, the heart rate system is not for medical
use.
Contact Heart Rate Monitoring
You may use the heart rate contact grips to automatically check your heart rate. Just follow these steps.
•
Grasp the stainless steel heart rate contact grips; you do not have to squeeze tightly.
•
It may take from 20 to 40 seconds for the heart rate system to acquire and display your heart rate.

your current heart rate in beats-per-minute (BPM).

Note:
Holding to the Heat Rate Plates, while using the treadmills in speed higher than 4.0 miles (6.4 kilometers) is not recommended.

rate strap (not included). Place the strap snugly around your chest with the transmitter resting directly
over your sternum.

When your heart rate has been acquired, the Main Screen displays a permanent Heart Rate icon and
your heart rate in beats-per-minute (BPM).
