WEARING THE CHEST BELT AND WATCH
CHEST BELT
The heart rate chest belt is used to count your heartbeat and
transmit the data to the watch. To wear the chest belt:
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the chest belt
with a few drops of water or a conductive gel to ensure solid
contact.
2. Strap the heart rate chest belt across your chest. To ensure
an accurate heart rate signal, adjust the strap until the belt
sits snugly below your pectoral muscles.
TIPS
•
The position of the chest belt affects its performance. Move
the chest belt along the strap so that it falls above your heart.
•
Avoid areas with dense chest hair.
•
In dry, cold climates, it may take several minutes for the chest
belt to function steadily. This is normal and should improve
with several minutes of exercise.
If the watch is kept idle without receiving a heart rate signal
NOTE
for 5 minutes, the Heart Rate Mode will quit and return to Clock Mode.
WATCH
You can wear the receiver watch on your wrist or strap it to a bike
or exercise machine, as shown below.
