Maximum Heart Rate (During Training) - Tunturi T20 User Manual

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, polyamide)
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.
