HOW TO USE THE HAND PULSE SENSOR
To measure your
heart rate, stand on
the foot rails and
place your hands on
the metal contacts on
the handrail. Your
palms must be rest-
ing on the upper
contacts, and your
fingers must be
touching the lower contactsÑavoid moving your
hands. When the hand pulse sensor is used, the
CALORIES/PULSE display
will show both the number of
calories you have burned and
your heart rate. Every seven
seconds, the display will
change from one number to
the other. The PULSE indica-
tor will light when your heart rate is shown. For the
most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for
about 15 seconds.
If your heart rate is not displayed, make sure that you
are standing on the foot rails and that you are not mov-
ing your hands. In addition, be careful not to hold the
metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance of
the hand pulse sensor, clean the metal contacts peri-
odically using a soft clothÑnever use alcohol, abra-
sives, or chemicals.
