User’s Reference Manual: Heart Rate Features 6
• After you put on the chest strap, face the display console for a
minimum of 15 seconds. This allows the receiver in the console
to recognize the signal from the chest strap.
• If three dashes (— — —) appear on the display, the EFX cannot
detect a heart rate. Make sure the chest strap is positioned
properly around your chest and against your skin.
• If you prefer to use the touch-sensitive handrail grips, grasp both
touch-sensitive handrail grips and wait five to ten seconds. Make
sure both hands are moist (not dry).
• When a signal is detected, a number flashes in the Heart rate
display and indicates your heart rate.
• Always face forward on the EFX and use the handrail for
balance.
• Maintain a consistent stride rate while exercising. Find a
comfortable stride rate between 100 and 160 strides per minute.
Using the Heart Rate
Touch-Sensitive Grips
While exercising, you must grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips
for a minimum of five to ten seconds to transmit your heart rate to the
display. Refer to Diagram 3.
Diagram 3: Touch-sensitive handrail grips
Usually, the concentration of salts in a person’s perspiration
provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the receiver
inside the display console. However, some people, because of body
chemistry or erratic heart beats, cannot use the hand-held heart rate
feature on the EFX. A chest strap may provide better results.
Important: While exercising, do not grasp the touch-sensitive
handrail grips and wear a chest strap at the same time. Using both
features may cause erratic heart rate readings.
