3.2 HEART RATE MONITORING

3.2.1 THE POLAR

HEART RATE CHEST STRAP

The standard Heart Rate Chest Strap allows the on-board, Polar

compatible, telemetry heart rate feature of this

product to continuously monitor the heart rate and in many workouts adjusts aspects of the workout such as

resistance level.

Wet the transmitter electrodes (A), the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, and secure the strap as

high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal

breathing.

The transmitter strap will deliver an optimum heart rate reading when the electrodes are directly in contact with bare

skin. However, it will function properly through wet, lightweight clothing.

The key to proper operation is for the electrodes to remain wet to transmit the electrical impulses of the heart back

to the receiver.

If it becomes necessary to remoisten the chest strap electrodes, grasp the center of the strap, pull it away from the

chest to expose the two electrodes, then moisten them in this position.
