5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are
sheets of plastic
on the metal con-
tacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, remove
the plastic.
To
measure your
heart rate, hold
the handgrip pulse
sensor with your
palms resting against the metal contacts.
Avoid
moving your hands or gripping the contacts
tightly.

appear in the display. For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 sec-

If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
squeeze the metal contacts tightly. For optimal
performance, clean the metal contacts using a soft
cloth;
never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemi-
cals to clean the contacts.
