Heart Rate
Monitoring
When you wear a Polar or compatible transmitter strap, the
bike will display your heart rate as a digital beats-per-minute
(bpm) readout. This monitoring is very accurate, typically
within one beat per minute.
The transmitter strap should
be worn directly against your
skin, about one inch below the
pectoral muscles/breast line
(see picture below). Women
should be careful to place the
transmitter below their bra
line.
Some moisture is necessary between the strap and your skin.
Sweat from your exercise works best, but ordinary tap water
may be used prior to your workout if desired.
