PACEMASTER R20 SPORT TREADMILL USER MANUAL
The heart rate monitor is specially designed for accuracy,
comfort, and durability. To get the best performance from
the heart rate monitor, please read the instructions below.
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
The heart rate monitor consists of two components: the
chest strap and the transmitter. Follow the steps below
to put on the heart rate monitor.
1. Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap through
one end of the transmitter and attach it.
2. Wrap the heart rate monitor around your chest and
attach the other end of the chest strap to the
transmitter. If necessary adjust the length of the chest
strap. The heart rate monitor should be under your
clothing, against your skin, and as high under the
pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable.
3. Pull the transmitter away from your body a few inches
and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side.
Wet both electrode areas. Return the transmitter to a
position against your chest.
USING THE HEART RATE MONITOR
1. Make sure that the heart rate monitor is under your
clothing, against your skin, and as high under the
pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable.
Note: If the heart rate monitor does not function
when positioned as described, try moving it slightly
lower or higher on your chest.
2. Moisten the two electrode areas on the transmitter with
saline solution. If heart rate readings do not appear until
you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
3. For the console to display heart rate readings, the
user must be within arm’s length of the console.
4. The heart rate monitor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical con-
ditions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
5. The operation of the heart rate monitor can be affected
by magnetic interference caused by high power lines
or other sources. If it is suspected that magnetic
interference may be causing a problem, try relocating
the treadmill.
6. If the heart rate monitor still does not function
properly, test it by having another person try it.
7. The battery may need to be replaced.
HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Thoroughly clean and 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 electrode areas are
dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each
use, it may remain activated longer than necessary.
• 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
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
the heart rate monitor to temperatures above 122º
Fahrenheit (50º Celsius) or below 14º Fahrenheit
(-10º Celsius).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the transmitter
when using or storing the heart rate monitor.
• Clean the transmitter using water and mild soap.
Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The
chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.
