heart rate (hr) Zone trainer

To use the Heart Rate Zone Trainer program:
1. For best results, use a telemetry heart rate chest belt. However, you can also
use the contact heart rate (HR) grips located on the ergo bar in front of the
console. If you use contact HR, speed will be limited to a maximum of 4 mph
(6.4 kph).
If you are using the telemetry HR method, put the chest strap on. Remember
to wet the electrodes underneath the chest strap. The console must detect a
heart rate signal to allow selection of the HR Zone Trainer program.
If you will be using contact HR, then place your hands on the contact HR grips
below the console.
