The convenient hand pulse sensor allows you to
measure your heart rate before you begin exercising,
during your workout, and again when you finish.
To use the hand pulse sensor, the console must be
turned on (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 9). In addition, the walking belt must be moving
or the TIME display must be flashing (see step 5 on
page 10).
To measure
your heart rate,
stand on the
foot rails and
place your
hands on the
metal contacts
as shown. Your
palms must be
resting on the
upper contacts,
and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. After about 5 to 60 seconds,
your heart rate will be shown in the PULSE display.
(Due to physical differences between users, the time
will vary from user to user.) Note: The CHEST PULSE
indicator next to the PULSE display will light only when
the optional chest pulse sensor is used.
HAND PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING
• Stand on the foot rails and avoid moving your hands
while measuring your heart rate. Excessive movement
may interfere with heart rate readings. If the hand
pulse sensor is not used correctly, your heart rate will
not be shown.
• Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so
may interfere with heart rate readings.
• Continue to hold the contacts for about 5 to 60 sec-
onds for the most accurate heart rate reading. (Due
to physical differences between users, the time will
vary from user to user.)
• For optimal performance of the hand pulse sensor,
keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be
cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
