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.
WATCH
You can wear the receiver watch on your wrist or strap it to a bike or
exercise machine.
TIP To ensure accurate reception, try to keep the watch LCD screen
vertical when running or walking.
