HOW TO USE THE PULSE SENSOR
Note: Before you use the pulse sensor, you must
peel the protective vinyl covering off the metal
contacts on the top and bottom of the pulse sensor.
To use the pulse
sensor, place
your hands on
the metal con-
tacts. Your
palms must be
resting on the
upper contacts
and your fingers
must be touch-
ing the lower
contacts. Avoid moving your hands.
After a moment, the heart-shaped indicator in the dis-
play will begin to flash, three dashes (– – –) will
appear and then your heart rate will be shown. For
the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold
the contacts for about 15 seconds.
Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the
on/reset button to reset the pulse sensor. In addi-
tion, make sure that your hands are positioned as
described above. Be careful not to move your hands
excessively or squeeze the metal contacts too tightly.
