HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

The heart rate 
monitor consists of 
a chest strap and a 
sensor. Insert the 
tab on one end of 
the chest strap into 
the hole in one end 
of the sensor as 
shown. Then, press 
the end of the sen-
sor under the buckle 
on the chest strap. 
The tab should be 
flush with the front of 
the sensor.  

The heart rate moni-
tor must be worn 
under your clothes, 
tight against your 
skin. Wrap the heart 
rate monitor around 
your chest in the 
location shown. 
Make sure that 
the logo is right-
side-up. Then, attach the other end of the chest strap 
to the sensor. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if 
necessary.

Pull the sensor away from your body a few inches and 
locate the two electrode areas, which are covered by 
shallow ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or 
contact lens solution, wet the electrode areas. Then, 
return the sensor to a position against your chest. 

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

••  Thoroughly dry the sensor with a soft towel after 

each use. Moisture may keep the sensor activated, 
shortening the life of the battery.

••  Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do 

not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or 
other container that may trap moisture.

••  Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sun-

light for extended periods of time; do not expose it to 
temperatures above 122° F (50° C) or below 14° F 
(-10° C). 

••  Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor when 

using or storing the heart rate monitor.

••  To clean the sensor, use a damp cloth and a small 

amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the sensor with a 
damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft towel. 
Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean 
the sensor. Hand wash and air dry the chest strap.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try 
the steps below.

••  Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate moni-

tor as described at the left. If the heart rate monitor 
does not function when positioned as described, 
move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.

••  If heart rate readings are not displayed until you 

begin perspiring, rewet the electrode areas.

••  For the console to display heart rate readings, you 

must be within arm’’s length of the console.

••  If there is a battery cover on the back of the sensor, 

replace the battery with a new battery of the same 
type.

••  The heart rate monitor is designed to work with 

people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate 
reading problems may be caused by medical condi-
tions such as premature ventricular contractions 
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.

••  The operation of the heart rate monitor can be 

affected by magnetic interference from high power 
lines or other sources. If you suspect that magnetic 
interference is causing a problem, try relocating the 
fitness equipment.
