Measuring Your Heart Rate 

33

 

2.

 

Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. 
The strap should feel snug, not restrictive. Refer to 
the following figure. 

 

Figure 15: Adjust chest strap 

3.

 

Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies 
horizontally across your chest, and is centered in 
the middle of your chest. Refer to the following 
figure. 

 

Figure 16: Fasten chest strap 

4.

 

After you put on the chest strap, face the display 
console for a few seconds. This allows the receiver 
in the console to recognize the signal from the 
chest strap. 

If you use the touch-sensitive grips, be sure to grasp 
them securely (but not tightly—use a loose, cupping 
hold) on both sides. You may need to wait for 15 to 20 
seconds before your heart rate is displayed. 

Important: 

The touch-sensitive grips work well for most 

people. However, because of their body chemistry or 
erratic heartbeats, a few people cannot use the grips. If this 
applies to you, a chest strap may provide better results. 
However, do not grasp the touch-sensitive grips while 
wearing a chest strap—using both at the same time can 
cause erratic heart rate readings.
