Repeat the electrode wetting procedure (see How to Use the Heart Rate Monitor Chest Strap). The electrodes
must be wet to pick up and transmit accurate heart rate readings.
Make sure the electrodes are flat against the skin.
Wash the belt transmitter regularly with mild soap and water.
Make sure the chest strap transmitter is within three feet (one meter) of the heart rate receiver.
The chest strap is battery operated and will eventually stop functioning. If the chest strap transmitter battery is
depleted, contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services at 1-800-328-9714 for instructions on how to have
the chest strap replaced.

When exercising with the heart rate chest strap, you may come within range of electromagnetic signals strong
enough to cause abnormally elevated heart rate readings. Possible sources of such signals include:
Television sets and/or antennas, cell phones, computers, cars, high voltage power lines, and other motor driven
equipment.
Another heart rate transmitter within three feet (one meter) may also cause abnormal heart rate readings.
