Heart Rate Monitors - Landice Executive Owner's Manual

Heart rate monitors and motivation
KEEP YOU SAFE
Exercising too hard can put you at a risk for injury. A heart rate monitor reminds you of the safe and effective heart rate intensity
at which you should exercise and warns you when your workouts go too far.
KEEP YOU IN YOUR ZONE
If you want to reach your exercise goals, it's important to stay in your THRZ during workouts. A heart rate monitor is your
constant reminder of the intensity and quality of each workout session.
SAVE YOU TIME
Our heart rate monitor is wireless and easy to use, so you can view valuable heart rate information at any time during exercise
without interrupting or stopping your workout.
GIVE YOU ACCURATE FEEDBACK
Our heart rate monitor is more accurate so you know exactly what your level of exercise intensity is during workouts. Pulsemeters
have a high margin for error. Manual pulse measurements during exercise can result in errors as high as plus minus 15 beats
per minute, with the risk of potential error increasing as heart rate increases.
The Executive Treadmill includes two separate heart rate monitoring systems: The wireless heart chest strap transmitter and
the AccuTrack Contact Heart Rate.
Wireless Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter (shown below)
To use the Wireless Chest Strap follow these steps:
1. Secure the Chest Strap
Center the transmitter on the chest as high under the pectoral muscles (breasts) as possible. Tighten the strap so that the
belt is as tight as possible without being uncomfortable.
2. Apply Cardio Gel to the Electrodes
A tube of Landice Cardio Gel was shipped with your Executive Treadmill. Pull the belt away from your chest and apply a
small dab onto each electrode. This will ensure a strong electrical contact between the transmitter and your chest.
The Heart Rate Transmitter works best against bare skin. Since sweat (saltwater) is an electrical conductor, the transmitter will
work over a T-shirt if the shirt is wet with sweat. If you are having trouble getting an accurate pulse reading, try wearing the
belt against bare skin.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The transmitter activates when the belt is properly moistened. In order to conserve battery life, wipe the electrodes dry when
not in use. Clean monthly with mild soap and water and wipe dry. Do not use abrasives in cleaning, as they can cause permanent
damage to the electrodes. Do not bend or stretch the electrode strips, especially when storing the belt transmitter.
