THE HEART RATE CHEST BELT
The heart rate chest belt is used to count your heartbeat and transmit
the data to the receiver watch. To put it on,
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the heart rate chest
belt with few drops of water or a conductive gel to ensure a solid
contact.
2. Strap the heart rate chest belt across the chest. Adjust the strap
until the heart rate chest belt sits snugly below the pectoral muscles
for an accurate heart rate signal.
HINTS:
- The position of the heart rate chest belt affects its performance. Move
the heart rate chest belt along the strap for the best transmission.
Avoid areas with dense chest hair.
- In dry, cold climates, it takes the heart rate chest belt a while to
function steadily. This is normal as sweat could improve the contact
with the skin.
