PROBLEM:

Erratic or Inconsistent Readout. (3.0B only)

SOLUTION:

This is often caused by dry electrodes or a loose chest strap. Moisture on the rubber

electrodes is required for proper operation. Try a more generous coating of water on the electrodes
and tightening the chest strap.

Chest your exercise environment for sources of interference such as high power lines, large motors,
etc.

You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:
- Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding
onto the heart rate handlebars.
- Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate grips while exercising.
- When you are breathing heavily during a workout.
- When your hands are constricted by wearing a ring.
- When your hands are dry or cold. Try moistening your palms or rubbing them  

together to warm.

- Anyone with heavy arrhythmia.
- Anyone with arteriosclerosis or peripheral circulation disorder.
- Anyone whose skin on the measuring palms is especially thick.

Note: Outside interference sources such as computers, motors and fluorescent lights may cause the
heart rate reading to be erratic.

If the above troubleshooting section does not remedy the problem,

discontinue use and turn the power off.
