How To Wear Your Wireless Chest Strap Transmitter - Tunturi 14PTTR2000 User Manual

How to wear your wireless chest
strap transmitter:
• Attach the transmitter to the elastic
strap using the locking parts.
• Adjust the strap as tightly as possible
as long as the strap is not too tight to
remain comfortable.
• Position the transmitter with the logo
centered in the middle of your body
facing away from your chest (some
people must position the transmitter
slightly left of center). Attach the final
end of the elastic strap by inserting
the round end and, using the locking
parts, secure the transmitter and
strap around your chest.
• Position the transmitter immediately
below the pectoral muscles.
• Sweat is the best conductor to
measure very minute heart beat
electrical signals. However, plain
water can also be used to pre-wet
the electrodes (2 black square areas
on the reverse side of the belt and
either side of transmitter). It's also
recommended that you wear the
transmitter strap a few minutes
before your work out. Some users,
because of body chemistry, have
a more difficult time in achieving
a strong, steady signal at the
beginning. After "warming up", this
problem lessens. As noted, wearing
clothing over the transmitter/strap
doesn't affect performance.
• Your workout must be within range -
distance between transmitter/receiver
O w n e r ' s m a n u a l
– to achieve a strong steady signal.
The length of range may vary some
• what but generally stay close enough
to the console to maintain good,
strong, reliable readings. Wearing
the transmitter immediately against
bare skin assures you of proper
operation. If you wish, you may wear
the transmitter over a shirt. To do so,
moisten the areas of the shirt that the
electrodes will rest upon.
• To disconnect from the machine
Remark
The transmitter is automatically activated
when it detects activity from the user's
heart. Additionally, it automatically
deactivates when it does not receive any
activity. Although the transmitter is water
resistant, moisture can have the effect
of creating false signals, so you should
take precautions to completely dry the
transmitter after use to prolong battery
life (estimated transmitter battery life
is 2500 hours). If your chest strap has
a replaceable battery the replacement
battery is Panasonic CR2032.
Caution!
Do not use this product for Target Heart
Rate unless a steady, solid Actual Heart
Rate value is being displayed. High,
wild, random numbers being displayed
indicate a problem.
Areas to look at for interference, which
may cause erratic heart rate: Microwave
ovens, TVs, small appliances, etc.
Fluorescent lights. Some household
security systems. Perimeter fence for
a pet. Some people have problems
with the transmitter picking up a signal
from their skin. If you have problems try
wearing the transmitter upside down.
Normally the transmitter will be oriented
so the logo is right side up. The antenna
that picks up your heart rate is very
sensitive. If there is an outside noise
source, turning the whole machine 90
degrees may de-tune the interference.
If you continue to experience problems
contact your dealer.
