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 oper-

ates 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

POLAR

heart rate straps such as POLAR

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.

The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference only.

Using the heart rate transmitter chest strap lets you monitor your heart rate at any time during your workout.

Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath,

or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the machine's computer for

reference purposes only.

The heart rate transmitter is attached to a chest strap to keep your hands free during your workout. To put on your chest strap:

1. A djust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably against your skin. Secure the strap around your chest, just below the chest muscles, and

buckle it.

Lift the transmitter off your chest and moisten the two Grooved Electrode Areas on the back.

3. C heck that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin.

The transmitter will send your heart rate to the machine's receiver and display your estimated Beats Per Minute (BPM).

Always remove the transmitter before you clean the chest strap. Clean the chest strap regularly with mild soap and water, and thoroughly dry it.

Residual sweat and moisture may keep the transmitter active and drain the battery in the transmitter. Dry and wipe clean the transmitter after each

use.

Note: Do not use abrasives or chemicals such as steel wool or alcohol when you clean the chest strap, as they can damage the electrodes

permanently.

If the Console does not display a heart rate value, the transmitter may be at fault. Check that the textured contact areas on the chest strap are

making contact with your skin. You may need to lightly wet the contact areas. If no signal appears or you need further assistance, call your Nautilus

Representative.
