HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

The heart rate monitor consists of a chest strap

and a sensor. Attach the sensor to the chest strap
by pressing the posts on the sensor into the snap
fasteners on the chest strap.

The heart
rate monitor

must be worn
under your
clothes, tight
against your
skin. To put on

the heart rate

monitor, wrap

the chest strap

around your
chest, and
slide the loop
on one end of
the chest strap onto the clip on the other end of the
chest strap. Make sure that the logo on the sensor
is right-side-up. Then, adjust the length of the chest
strap, if necessary, and position the chest strap as
shown.

Next, pull the
chest strap

away from
your body a
few inches
and locate the
two electrode
areas. Using a

saline solution,
such as saliva

or contact lens solution, wet the electrode areas.
Then, return the chest strap to a position against
your chest.

Electrode Areas

Strap

• Thoroughly dry the electrode areas on the chest

strap with a soft towel after each use. Moisture
may keep the heart rate monitor activated, short­ening the life of the battery.

• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.

Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic

bag or other container that may trap moisture.

• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct

sunlight for extended periods of time; do not
expose it to temperatures above 122° F (50° C) or
below 14° F (-10° C).

• To clean the sensor, use a damp cloth and a small

amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the sensor with
a damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft
towel. Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemi-
cals to clean the sensor. Hand wash and air dry
the chest strap.
