BLUETOOTH Smart heart rate monitors.
®
Note: If you use both heart rate monitors at the
same time, the chest heart rate monitor will
have priority.

sheets of
plastic on the
metal con-
tacts on the
handgrip heart
rate monitor,
remove the
plastic. To mea-
sure your heart
rate, hold the
handgrip heart
rate monitor
with your palms resting against the contacts. Avoid
moving your hands or gripping the contacts
tightly.
When your pulse is detected, your heart rate
will be shown. For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds.
