WEARING A HEART RATE (HR) BELT

1

  Snap the sensor firmly into the strap connectors

2

  Adjust the belt length as needed

3

   The strap is placed on the chest just under the breast line in direct 

contact with your bare skin.

4

   Moisten the belt electrode areas (rubber sections on the reverse side) 

with water or electrode gel

5

   Put the belt on so that it fits snugly and the iQniter logo is facing up in 

the center of the chest

6

   To use your iQniter Smart Sensor with iQniter Cardio Training in the 

studio ensure that it is properly registered on my.iqniter.com

7

   To use with watch or app you need to pair your iQniter Smart Sensor 

with the device.

GETTING STARTED

No matter the fitness goals you have for your training, you will achieve them 

by training with the right intensity. HR is the best indicator to gauge training 

intensity. HR is also used to gauge recovery, stress levels and optimising all 

your training sessions.

FOR PROPER FUNCTION

  Ensure that the strap contact points (electrodes) are wet and in direct contact 

with the skin. (NOT OVER A BRA OR T-SHIRT)

  Adjust the heart rate belt and make sure that it fits tight and right on the 

breast line

MEMORY FUNCTION

The iQniter Smart Sensor has a memory function. When the iQniter Smart 

Sensor is used and the Suunto watch or Movescount App are not available, 

the iQniter Smart Sensor retains the training data in memory and is then auto-

uploaded when in proximity to a Movescount enabled device or Suunto watch 

again. When used together with iQniter Cardio Training the memory function 

is not used.

GET MOST OUT OF YOUR HR BELT

Register your iQniter Smart Sensor on 

my.iqniter.com. Then follow a few 

simple steps, and you will be ready to use your iQniter Smart Sensor.

This is a user guide for iQniter Smart Sensor which is an extended version of 

the Suunto Smart Sensor especially for use in group training studios equipped 

with iQniter Cardio Training. Like the Suunto Smart Sensor, the iQniter Smart 

Sensor can also be used together with Suunto watches, Suunto Movescount 

App or Bluetooth Smart Phone Apps.

The iQniter Smart Sensor comes with a soft, comfortable HR Smart Sensor belt.

PTE indicates the impact of a training session on your maximum aerobic 

performance. The success of your training is dependent on three factors; 

Duration, Intensity and Repetition. This information is based on your MHR and 

the results are divided into 5 levels. More detailed information can be found in 

the Suunto Training Guidebook – 

www.Suunto.com.

PEAK TRAINING EFFECT (PTE)

TRAINING EFFECT

DESCRIPTION

5 OVERREACHING

Very strong improvement in the fitness level 

where the session is followed by a sufficiently 

long recovery period.

4 POWERFUL  

ENHANCEMENT

Powerfully improve your fitness, but it requires 

2-3 quiet days / training sessions before the 

next hard session.

3 IMPROVE

Improves fitness level and does not require  

such a long recovery time.

2 MAINTAIN 

Sufficient to maintain fitness and positively  

improve the cardio system.

1 RECOVERY

Promotes regeneration and basic form, but  

is not sufficient to improve the fitness level 

significantly.

Maximum Heart Rate (MHR) is the age-related number of beats per minute 

of the heart when working at its maximum. Originally, MHR was calculated at 

220 minus your age in years for men and 226 minus your age for women, but 

research has found that this method is only valid for 50% of the population. 

iQniter therefore recommends that you do a HR test. Getting the most out 

of your workouts and finding your MHR require a MHR test. This test can be 

conducted on a bike or treadmill. If there are known heart conditions or health 

issues a Sub-Maximum HR test can be conducted. Consult your training coach or 

fitness center for more information.

TRAINING WITH HEART RATE

Once an individual has their personal MHR they can then train with confidence 

in the correct zones for maximum results. Simply by following the MHR 

percentage that is outlined by the instructor, trainer or coach. See example 

training zone definitions below.
