the foot rails and
place your thumb
on the pulse sen-
sor as shown. The
pulse sensor is
pressure-acti-
vated; fully press
down the pulse sensor. Do not press too hard, or
the circulation in your thumb will be restricted,
and your pulse will
not be detected. Next,
slightly raise your thumb

for another 15 seconds for the most accurate read-
ing. If the displayed pulse appears to be too high or
too low, or if your pulse is not displayed, lift your
thumb off the sensor and allow the display to reset.
Press down again on the sensor as described
above.
Make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown,
and that you are applying the proper amount of
pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the sensor sev-
eral times until you become familiar with it.
Remember to stand still whilst measuring your
pulse.
