• Repeat the electrode moistening procedure on the chest strap. See Section 3.2, titled
Heart Rate Monitoring for details. The electrodes must remain wet to pick up and trans-
mit accurate heart rate readings.
• Make sure the electrodes are flat against the skin.

• Make sure the chest strap transmitter is within three feet (91 centimeters) of the heart
rate receiver.

If the chest strap is worn near sources of electromagnetic signals, these signals may be strong
enough to elevate heart rate readings. Possible sources include:
• Television sets and/or antennas, cell phones, computers, cars, high voltage power lines
and motor driven exercise equipment.
• Another heart rate transmitter within three feet, or one meter, may also cause abnormal
heart rate readings.
