Remote Heart Rate Monitor
Monitoring your Heart Rate is one of the best procedures to control the intensity of your exercise. Contact Heart Rate (CHR)
sensors are installed to send your heart rate signals to the Console. The Console can also read telemetry HR signals from
a Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter that operates in the 4.5kHz - 5.5kHz
range.
Note: The heart rate chest strap must be an uncoded heart rate strap from
Polar Electro or an uncoded POLAR
®
compatible model. (Coded PO-
LAR
®
heart rate straps such as POLAR
®
OwnCode
®
chest straps will
not work with this equipment.)
If you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, consult
your doctor before using a wireless chest strap or other telemetric heart
rate monitor.
NOTICE: To prevent interference with the telemetry HR receiver, do not place
any personal electronic devices in the left side of the media tray.
Contact Heart Rate Sensors
Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors send your heart rate signals to the Console. The CHR sensors are the stainless steel parts
of the Handlebars. To use, put your hands comfortably around the sensors. Be sure that your hands touch both the top and
the bottom of the sensors. Hold firm, but not too tight or loose. Both hands must make contact with the sensors for the Con-
sole to detect a pulse. After the Console detects four stable pulse signals, your initial pulse rate will be shown.
Once the Console has your initial heart rate, do not move or shift your hands for 10 to 15 seconds. The Console will now
validate the heart rate. Many factors influence the ability of the sensors to detect your heart rate signal:
• Movement of the upper body muscles (including arms) produces an electrical signal (muscle artifact) that can interfere with
pulse detection. Slight hand movement while in contact with the sensors can also produce interference.
• Calluses and hand lotion may act as an insulating layer to reduce the signal strength.
• Some Electrocardiogram (EKG) signals generated by individuals are not strong enough to be detected by the sensors.
• The proximity of other electronic machines can generate interference.
If your heart rate signal ever seems erratic after validation, wipe off your hands and the sensors and try again.
