Congratulations for purchasing the new AccuRate™
heart rate monitor, designed for accuracy, comfort, and
durability. To install and use the heart rate monitor, follow the instructions in this userʼs guide. For additional
information about using the heart rate monitor with
your treadmill, refer to your treadmill userʼs manual.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) this
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by
ICON Health & Fitness, Inc. could void the userʼs authority to operate this device.
WARNING
If you have an implanted medical device such
as a pacemaker, check with your physician before using the heart rate monitor.
If you have heart problems, or if you are over
60 years of age and have been inactive, do not
use pulse-driven programs.
If you are taking medication regularly, consult
your physician to find whether the medication
will affect your exercise heart rate.
How to Install the Receiver
Before the heart rate monitor can be used, the included receiver must be installed. Pages 2 through 7 of this
serʼs guide include eight sections that show how the receiver is to be installed in eight different styles of tread-
u
mills. Look at pages 2 through 7 and find the drawings that most closely resemble your treadmill. Then,
follow the instructions in that section to install the receiver. Note: Your treadmill may not look exactly like the
treadmills shown in the drawings. If you have questions, call toll-free 1-888-936-4266

How to Use the Chest Pulse Sensor
The unique heart rate monitor is specially designed for
ccuracy, comfort, and durability. To get the best per-
a
formance from the heart rate monitor, please read the
instructions below.
OW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
H
The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
the chest strap and the sensor unit. Follow the steps
below to put on the chest pulse sensor.
Chest Strap
Tab
Sensor Unit
Refer to the inset drawing above. Insert the tab
1
on one end of the chest strap through one end of
the sensor unit. Press the end of the sensor unit
under the buckle on the chest strap.
Wrap the
2
chest pulse
sensor
around
your chest.
Attach the
free end of
the chest
strap to the
sensor unit as described above. Adjust the length
of the chest strap, if necessary. The chest pulse
sensor should be under your clothing, against
your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles
or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the
logo is right-side-up and facing forward.
Pull the

such as saliva or contact lens solution, wet both
lectrode areas. Return the sensor unit to a posi-
e
tion against your chest.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, or if the displayed heart rate is excessively
high or low, try the troubleshooting steps below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sensor as described at the left. If the chest pulse sensor
does not function when positioned as described,
move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
• Each time you use the chest pulse sensor, use
saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution
to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor unit
(see the drawing below). If heart rate readings do not
appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• Make sure that you are within armʼs length of the
console. For the console to display heart rate
readings, the user must be within armʼs length of
the console.
• The chest pulse sensor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical conditions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
magnetic interference may be causing a problem,
try relocating your exercise equipment.
• If the chest pulse sensor still does not function properly, test the chest pulse sensor in the following way:
Hold the chest
pulse sensor
and place your
thumbs over
the electrode
areas as
shown.
Next, hold the chest pulse sensor near the console.
Whilst holding one thumb stationary, begin tapping
the other thumb against the electrode area at a rate
of about one tap per second. Check the heart rate
reading on the console.

• If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly
after you have followed all of the above instructions,
the battery should be replaced in the following way:
Locate the battery
over on the back of
c
the sensor unit. Insert
a coin into the slot in
the cover, turn the
cover counterclockwise, and remove the
cover.
Remove the old battery and insert a new
CR 2032 battery.
Make sure that the
battery is turned so
the writing is on
top. Replace the
battery cover and
turn it clockwise to
close it.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE
• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each
se. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
u
electrode areas are wetted and the chest pulse sen-
or is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off when
s
it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If
the chest pulse sensor is not dried after each use, it
may remain activated longer than necessary, draining the battery prematurely.
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
the chest pulse sensor to temperatures above 50°
Celsius (122° Fahrenheit) or below -10° Celsius (14°
Fahrenheit).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.
• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
strap may be hand washed and air dried.
