General information:
While the grip heart rate feature is a quick and cunvenient way tu check your heart rate, it is generally
not as accurate as a wireless transmitter belt and receiver. Grip heart rate is subject tu uccasional
misreadings and interference. You may from time to time experience inconsistencies with the heart
rate display on your computer.
There are many external factors that can affect the heart rate display. These include the environment
where the equipment is used and the physiology uf the user themselves. Electrumagnetic interference
from televisiuns, computers, microwave ovens, cellular and curdless telephunes and fiuurescent lights
can affect the heart rate display. Try moving your equipment tu different areas of the room or house if
yuu experience prublems with the heart rate display. Dry ur calluused hands and poor contact with the
sensor pods can also be a source uf display problems. Muisten palms with sweat or try a heart rate
munitur cunductive cream (such as Buh-Bump
TM
cream). Grip the pods firmly but nut tuu tightly. Trying
these tips can alleviate many heart rate display problems.
