FEEDBACK

Your Horizon Fitness elliptical trainer offers two heart rate feedback options. You
may choose to use the heart rate handlebars, or the chest transmitter for a hands
free workout. 

HEART RATE HANDLEBAR

Place the palm of your hands directly on the heart rate handlebars. Both hands
must grip the bars for your heart rate to register. When griping the handlebars, do
not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Try to
maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars. It is rec-
ommended that you hold the handlebars only long enough to see your heart rate
readout on the console. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently
holding the handlebars.

TELEMETRIC CHEST TRANSMITTER 

(Esc3 and 4 only)

Prior to wearing the chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber elec-
trodes with water. Center the chest strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles,
directly over your sternum, with the Horizon Fitness logo facing out. Note: The
chest strap must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consis-
tent readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may
receive an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout.

If you have any problems with the heart rate function please refer to (pages 22 &
23) in the troubleshooting section.

WARNING!

The heart rate function is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the
accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an
exercise aid.
