Heart rate measurement (heart rate chest belt)
‼ NOTE
• A chest strap does not come standard with this trainer. When you
like to use a wireless chest strap you need to purchase this as an
accessory�
The most accurate heart rate measurement is achieved with a heart
rate chest belt� The heart rate is measured by a heart rate receiver
in combination with a heart rate transmitter belt. Accurate heart
measurement requires that the electrodes on the transmitter belt are
slight moist and constantly touching the skin�
If the electrodes are too dry or too moist, the heart rate measurement
will become less accurate�
⚠ WARNING
• If you have a pacemaker, consult a physician before using a
heartrate chest belt�
⚠ CAUTION
• If there are several heart rate measurement devices next to each
other, make sure that the distance between them is at least 1�5
metres�
• If there is only one heart rate receiver and several heart rate
transmitters, make sure that only one person with a transmitter is
within transmission range�
‼ NOTE
• Do not use a heart rate chest belt in combination with the
handpulse sensors�
• Always wear the heart rate chest belt under your clothes directly in
contact with your skin� Do not wear the heart rate chest belt above
your clothes� If you wear the heart rate chest belt above your
clothes, there will be no signal�
• If you set a heart rate limit for your workout, an alarm will sound
when it is exceeded�
• The transmitter transmits the heart rate to the console up to a
distance of 1 metre� If the electrodes are not moist, the heart rate
will not appear on the display�
• Some fibers in clothes (e.g. polyester, poly-amide) create static
electricity which can prevent accurate heart rate measurement�
• Mobile phones, televisions and other electrical appliances create
an electromagnetic field which can prevent accurate heart rate
measurement�
Maximum heart rate (during training)
The maximum heart rate is the highest heart rate a person can safely
achieve through exercise stress� The following formula is used to
calculate the average maximum heart rate: 220 - AGE. The maximum
heart rate varies from person to person�

during your workout� If you belong to a risk group, consult a
