Precautions
Interference During Exercise
Electromagnetic Interference and Exercise Equipment
Disturbance may occur near high-voltage power lines, traffic lights, overhead lines of electric railways,
electric bus lines or trams, televisions, car motors, bike computers, some motor-driven exercise
equipment, cellular phones, or at electric security gates. To avoid erratic readings, move away from
possible sources of disturbance.
Exercise equipment with electronic or electrical components such as LED displays, motors and electrical
brakes may cause interfering stray signals. To solve these problems, try the following:
1.
Remove the transmitter from your chest and use the exercise equipment as you would normally.
2.
Move the cycling computer around until you find an area in which it displays no stray reading or does not
flash the heart symbol. Interference is often strongest directly in front of the display panel of the
equipment, while the left or right side of the display is relatively free of disturbance.
3.
Put the transmitter back on your chest and keep the cycling computer in this interference-free area as
much as possible.
If the cycling computer still does not work with the exercise equipment, it may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement.
Minimizing Risks When Exercising
Exercise may include some risk. Before beginning a regular exercise program, it is recommended that you
answer the following questions concerning your health status. If you answer yes to any of these questions,
we recommend that you consult a doctor before starting any training program.
• Have you been physically inactive for the past 5 years?
• Do you have high blood pressure or high blood cholesterol?
• Do you have symptoms of any disease?
• Are you taking any blood pressure or heart medication?
• Do you have a history of breathing problems?
• Are you recovering from a serious illness or medical treatment?
• Do you use a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device?
• Do you smoke?
• Are you pregnant?
