The Heart Rate Zone Training® workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the optional Polar® telemetry heart
rate chest strap, or grip the LifepulseTM sensors, to enable the on-board computer to monitor the heart rate during
a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the incline level on treadmills and resistance on cross-trainers
and bikes to maintain the target heart rate based on the actual heart rate.

Heart Rate Monitoring
The patented Lifepulse system sensors are the built-in heart rate monitoring system on these products. For the
most accurate reading possible, during a workout:
• Grasp the sensors firmly.
• Hold each sensors at the midpoint.
• Keep hands steady and in place.
The console displays the heart rate within 10 to 40 seconds after the user grasps the sensors. The following factors
may affect a Lifepulse reading: incorrect hand placement on the sensors, upper body activity, lotion or dirt on
hands, and excessive or insufficient pressure used when gripping the sensors.
Note: (Treadmills Only) : Do not attempt to grasp the sensors at speeds above 4.5 mph or 7.2 kph. For these
speeds, the use of a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is recommended.
Optional Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap
The Polar® telemetry heart rate monitoring system transfers heart rate signals to the console when electrodes are
pressed against the skin. These electrodes are attached to a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap that the user
wears during the workout. The Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is optional. Contact Customer Support
Services to order.
See the diagram below for correct positioning of the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap. The electrodes, which
are the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, must remain wet to transmit accurately the electrical
impulses of the heart back to the receiver. Moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the Polar telemetry heart rate
chest strap as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to
allow for normal breathing.
The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart rate reading when the electrodes are in direct contact with bare
skin. However, it functions properly through a thin layer of wet clothing.
If it becomes necessary to re-moisten the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap electrodes, grasp the center of
the strap, pull it away from the chest to expose the two electrodes, and re-moisten them.
