This equipment offers two heart rate feedback options. You may choose to use the
Heart
Rate Handlebar
, or the
Chest Belt
(sold separately) for a hands free workout.
Heart Rate Handlebar (Standard)
Place the palms of your hands directly on the
heart rate handlebars. Both hands must grip
the bars for your heart rate to register.
When gripping the handlebars, do not grip
tightly. It is recommended that you hold the
handlebars only long enough to see your
heart rate readout on the console.
NOTE:
Do NOT do this test during the workout.

NOTE: The Chest Belt must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and
consistent reading.
