Grip Heart Rate


This Schwinn ® bike is equipped with grip heart rate sensors located on
the handlebars. You must contact these sensors with both hands so the
computer can detect your pulse. The computer uses information detected
by the grip heart rate sensors for many of the software features. Make
sure you are griping the pods and look for the flashing "heart" icon and
pulse rate located on the lower right portion of the LCD display (to the left
of the CYCLIST icon) indicating that a pulse signal is being received. This is
extremely important for the Heart Rate Control and Fitness Test programs.
The computer must receive a steady, consistent signal for the duration of
these programs to operate correctly. If there is no display please see the
section titled "IMPORTANT Things You Should Know Before Exercising" for
more information.
