Monitoring The Heart Rate - Technogym Run Personal User Manual

19 Monitoring the heart rate

The equipment is able to measure heart rate trends, in two different ways:
- with a device applied to the central handgrip (hand sensor), that switches on when you grip
the handgrip in the sensor region;
- with a chest band with a heart rate transmitter (Polar T31).
There must be no more than one transmitter in the reception range: otherwise the receiver may
receive different signals at the same time and give incorrect heart readings. If there are several
equipment units with heart rate receivers in the same area, the recommended minimum distance
between them is 80 cm.
Heart rate readings will not be accurate near electromagnetic radiation sources (TVs, cellphones, etc.).
Should you have any doubts about the accuracy of the readings, contact the Technical Support Service.
Warnings
!
During a workout it is very important that your heart rate never goes above 90% of your maximum rate (unless you are an athlete
engaged in competitive sport).
The sole function of the heart rate monitor is to display the heart rate during exercise and cannot be used for medical cardiac
diagnoses of any kind. The heart rate shown on the display is purely indicative and cannot be considered absolutely certain.
