Heart Rate Monitor
How the Heart Rate Monitor Works
The Heart Rate Monitor is a combination of a Heart Rate Sensor and a
sport watch. The Heart Rate Sensor attaches to your chest and measures
the electrical signals generated by the heart as it is beating . Using this
information, it then calculates your heart rate and transmits it to your
watch. You simply glance at the watch during exercise/tr aining to make
sure you are in the appropriate heart r ate range to maintain or improve
your fitness level.
How to Use the Heart Rate Monitor
1. Move away from sources of electrical or r adio interference.
2. Wet the Heart Rate Sensor pads. THIS IS ESSENTIAL for proper operation
of the Heart Rate Monitor.
3. Put on the chest strap. Fasten the strap snugly around your chest, just
below the breasts. Be sure the transmitter is centered on the chest and
is right side up so the logo can be read by someone facing you.
4. Start the Heart Rate Monitor: Refer to the user manual for your watch
for detailed instructions on viewing heart r ate
data.
Warning

This is not
a
mended for use by persons with serious
heart conditions. You should always consult
your physician before beginning or modifying
an exercise program.
Sensor Pads
Interference with the radio signal, poor contact
between your skin and the chest str ap, and other
factors may prevent accurate transmission of
heart rate data.
Maintenance
Rinse Heart Rate Sensor and strap in fresh water to avoid build up of materials
that can interfere with the measurement of your heart r ate.
Transmitter Battery Life and Replacement
Battery life of the transmitter should exceed two years, based upon using
it an hour a day. Greater usage will shorten the battery life. Replace trans-
mitter battery when any of the following occur :
• The watch no longer receives heart r ate information from the chest
transmitter when properly worn on the chest.
•
Error messages (COMM ERR, SIGNAL LOST) appear with increased fre-
quency on the display.
Battery Replacement
NOTE: You’ll need to have a device (such as a watch) capable of dis-
playing heart rate information to verify that the new battery has
been inserted correctly. Use
cover (back of sensor).
a
coin to open the battery compartment
• Insert new battery (CR2032 or equivalent) with “+” facing you.
•
•
Push the reset button next to the battery. Use a toothpick or straight-
ened paper clip. (Digital Heart Rate Sensor only)
Reinstall battery cover and perform quick test of the unit: (See “How to
Use the Heart Rate Monitor” above).
• Within a few seconds, the heart symbol on the watch display should
begin flashing, indicating that the sensor is active. This confirms that the
battery was installed correctly.
NOTE: A heart rate value does not need to appear on the display during
this test.
IF FLASHING HEART DOES NOT APPEAR ON WATCH:
•
Press the reset switch in the battery compartment again (Digital Heart
Rate Sensor only) and replace the battery cover, or
• Reinstall the battery, and repeat test procedure above.
