About HRC

The heart rate monitor transmitter strap provided with your

treadmill should be worn directly against your skin at about one

inch below the pectoral muscles/breast line. Women should be

careful to place the transmitter below their bra line.

Some moisture is necessary between the strap and your skin.

Sweat from your exercise works best, but ordinary tap water

may be used prior to your workout if desired.

If the transmitter strap is adjusted or moved while exercising,

communication may be temporarily affected.

If communication is lost for 30 seconds, the treadmill will

automatically shut off.

The transmitter strap sends a low-level radio signal to the

treadmill, so interference from other radio and sound waves

(including everything from cordless telephones to loudspeakers)

is possible. The good news is that interference is usually

quite brief. If you continue to have intermittent heart rate

display problems, consult your local service technician, as the

transmitter strap batteries may be low.

Make sure you breathe smoothly and regularly.

Talking during your workout usually causes heart rate spikes

of five beats per minute or more, so avoid talking as much as

possible.

Maintain a smooth walking or running motion.

A grounded outlet is critical for the HRC system to function

properly. Use a dedicated 120 VAC, grounded outlet to help

prevent interference.
