5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets
of clear plastic on
the metal con-
tacts on the hand-
grip pulse sensor,
remove the plas-
tic.
To measure
your heart rate,
hold the handgrip
pulse sensor with
your palms resting
against the metal
contacts.
Avoid moving your hands or gripping
the contacts too tightly.
When your pulse is detected, one, two, or three
dashes will appear in the display, and then your
heart rate will appear. For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 sec-
onds. Note: If you continue to hold the handgrip
pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate
for up to 30 seconds.
If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. For opti-
mal performance, clean the metal contacts using a
soft cloth;
never use alcohol, abrasives, or
chemicals to clean the contacts.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
tone will sound and the console will pause. If the
pedals do not move for several minutes and the
buttons are not pressed, the console will turn off
and the display will be reset.
