PROPER ORIENTATION OF THE PULSE SENSOR
The transmitter on the pulse sensor is angled down-
ward, as shown below. For the pulse sensor to func-
tion properly, the transmitter must be pointed within
30° of the center of the console (the shaded area in
the drawing). If you turn your head too far away from
the console, the signal from the pulse sensor will not
be received.

GUIDELINES FOR OBTAINING ACCURATE PULSE
READINGS
The instructions on page 13 explain how the pulse
sensor is used with the console (see PULSE DIS-
