Attach the sensor correctly to your ear-
lobe and take care not to swing the sen-
sor or sensor cable during the exercise.
If the sensor cable proves to be dam-
aged, replace the whole pulse sensor
with a new one.
Is the weight unit correct? Set the weight unit correctly. (see page
48)
Isn't the sensor cable damaged?
Turn the power on. (see page 13)
Replace the AC Adapter if its interior
circuit or the cable is damaged.
Use only CATEYE AC Adapter.
Connect the AC adaptor correctly.
(see page 13)
Is the power supply connected?
Display does not appear.
Didn't you insert the card too quickly? Insert the card slowly.
Isn't the data card reversed?ERROR or irregular display appears
when you insert the data card.
Didn't you specify two or more pro-
grams, or open unnecessary holes?
Refer to P.42~43 and specify the pro-
gram and conditions correctly.
Is the sensor plug completely inserted
into the sensor jack?
Is the earlobe sensor attached correctly
to your earlobe?
Is the power switch on?
Isn't the cable of the AC Adapter dam-

Item to check Countermeasure
Does a buzzer sound because your pulse
rate exceeds the upper pulse limit speci-
fied in the program?
Set your age properly so that the alarm
does not sound.
When the pulse (earlobe) sensor is
used, the pulse rate displayed on the
control unit remains at “0”.
The pulse rate increases abnormally.
The evaluation of fitness level seems
incorrect.
The exercise program indicates “STOP
EXERCISE” and ends prematurely.
Hold the card yellow arrow side up,
and insert to the direction of arrow.
When the chest-belt sensor is used, the
pulse rate displayed on the control unit
remains at “0”.
Is the earlobe sensor plug connected to
the control unit?
When the earlobe sensor is connected,
signals from the chest-belt sensor are
not received. Remove the earlobe sen-
sor plug from the control unit.
Is the chest belt attached correctly? Attach the chest belt correctly accord-
ing to the procedure.
Is the chest belt loose? Attach the chest belt with the electrode
area making contact with your body.
Is the air dry? (especially in winter) Slightly dampen the electrode area of
the chest belt.
Has the electrode belt deteriorated or
has it become worn or damaged due to
long-term use?
Replace it with a new electrode belt.
Is the battery low? Replace it with a new battery.
When the chest-belt sensor is used, the
pulse rate displayed on the control unit
indicates “0” or measurement starts.
Is the chest belt attached correctly? Attach the chest belt correctly accord-
ing to the procedure.
Does the pulse rate indicate “0” at a
distance from the control unit and does
measurement start when closer to the
unit?
The battery is low. Replace it with a
new battery. If the problem persists,
check the receiving board in the con-
trol unit.
Are the pedals firmly attached to the
crank? If not, noise may be produced.
Attach the pedals firmly.
Clattering noise is heard with the
pedal rotation.
