Care; Activating The Heart Rate Monitor - Suunto ADVIZOR Mode D'emploi

2.4 CARE

Wash the transmitter regularly with mild soap and water after each use. Rinse with pure water; dry thoroughly and
carefully.
Store in a cool dry place. Never store the transmitter wet. Moisture keeps the electrodes wet and transmitter activated
thereby shortening the life of the battery.
Do not bend or stretch the transmitter; this may damage the electrodes.

2.5 ACTIVATING THE HEART RATE MONITOR

1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap.
2. Adjust the strap length to fit snugly and comfortably. Secure the strap around your chest, below the chest muscles.
Lock the buckle.
3. Raise the transmitter a little off your chest and wet the grooved electrode areas on the back of it. It is important
that the electrodes are wet during exercise.
4. Check that the wet electrode areas are firmly against your skin and the logo is in a central upright position.
5. Wear the wristop computer as you would wear an ordinary watch.
Note: It is recommended that you wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure flawless operation. However, if
you wish to wear the transmitter over a shirt, moisten the shirt well under the electrodes.
When the Wristop Computer is in the Altimeter main mode, HRM main mode or any of the HRM sub modes and the
transmitter is worn, the Wristop Computer will automatically "search for" a heart rate signal. This procedure also initiates
the heart rate measurement.
During the first minute, measurements are taken every second, then for the next 4 minutes every 5 seconds. If no heart
rate signal has been received during the first five minutes, the "search for" a heart rate signal will end. After this process,
the user can manually activate the heart rate measurement by pressing the [+] button in the HRM main mode.
NOTE: Pressing the [+] button during the first 5 minutes in the heart rate mode, will stop the search for a heart rate signal.
To reactivate the measurement, press the [+] button again.
