POLAR® HEART RATE TECHNOLOGY_
All Tunturi Electronic Treadmills are manufactured with heart
rate monitoring capability. A Polar Pulse Transmitter and Belt
(see FIG. 1) are accessories that are necessary in order to take
advantage of this technology. These items may be purchased
separately for the J550. Please contact your Tunturi Retailer if
you are interested in purchasing the transmitter & belt.
USING THE POLATRANSMITTER & BELT_
1
Attach the elastic chest belt to the pulse transmitter. (FIG.2)
2 Wrap the belt around your chest and fasten it together.
Adjust the belt so it will remain tight and not bounce up
and down. (FIG. 3)
3 The transmitter should be above your stomach and at the
center of your chest, against your skin.
(FIG. 4)
4
Under extreme sweat conditions, it may be necessary to wear
the belt and transmitter over a light shirt to prevent irregular
readings. (FIG. 5)

PULSE MONITOR INFORMATION & PRECAUTIONS:_
•
The belt should be cleaned, as needed, with a mild soap and
water solution. Never use alcohol or any abrasives as these
will cause permanent damage.
•
To maximize the life of your belt, be sure that you do not
stretch or bend the electrode strips (take special care when
storing it).
•
The Transmitter is switched to an active state only when it
is being used for measurement. However, we recommend
that you detach the Transmitter from the Belt after use
because sweat and other moisture can keep the Transmitter
in an active state and waste battery energy.
•
The Transmitter should last for a number of years.
Replacement Transmitters and/or Belts are available
from Tunturi, Inc.
•
Do not use the Transmitter together with a heart pacemaker.
• Strong electromagnetic fields, emitted from televisions,
radios, antennae, or high voltage power lines may
produce irregular readings.
