HOW TO INSTALL THE RECEIVER
Before the heart rate monitor can be used, the included
receiver must be installed in your exercise equipment.
To install the receiver, refer to the instructions in the
User’s Manual included with your exercise equipment.
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
1. See the drawings below. The heart rate monitor consists
of two components—the chest strap and the sensor unit.
Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap through the
hole in one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset
drawing. Next, press the end of the sensor unit under the
buckle on the chest strap.
2. Wrap the heart rate monitor around your chest. Attach the
other end of the chest strap to the sensor unit as de-
scribed above. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if nec-
essary. The heart rate monitor should be under your
clothing, touching your skin, and as high under the pec-
toral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that
the logo on the heart rate monitor is facing away from you
and is right-side-up.
3. Pull the sensor unit
away from your body a
few inches and locate
the two electrode areas
on the surface facing
your chest. Using a
saline solution such as
saliva or contact lens
solution, wet the elec-
trode areas. Then, return the sensor unit to a position
against your chest.
HEART RATE MONITOR CARE
•
Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each use. The
heart rate monitor is activated when the electrode areas
are wetted and the heart rate monitor is put on; the heart
rate monitor shuts off when it is removed and the elec-
trode areas are dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried
after each use, it may remain activated longer than neces-
sary, draining the battery prematurely.
•
Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do not
store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or other con-
tainer that may trap moisture.
•
Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sunlight for
extended periods of time. Do not expose the heart rate
monitor to temperatures above 122° F (50° C) or below
14° F (-10° C).
•
Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit when
using or storing the heart rate monitor.
•
Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never use al-
cohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest strap may be
hand washed and air dried.
