the foot rails and
place your
thumb on the
pulse sensor as
shown at upper
right. The pulse
sensor is pres-
sure-activated. 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 until the heart-shaped indicator in the
CAL/FAT CAL/PULSE display flashes steadily.
Hold your thumb at this level. After 5 to 10 sec-
onds, your pulse will be displayed. Hold your
thumb on the sensor for another 15 seconds for
the most accurate reading. 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

with it. Always stand still while measuring your
