In dry, cold climates, it may take several minutes for
the chest belt to function steadily. This is normal and
should improve with several minutes of exercise.
NOTE To maintain the best performance of your chest belt,
please handle it with care according to the following:
Do not wrap the chest belt in a wet towel nor with other
wet materials.
Do not store the chest belt in a hot (about 50°C) and
humid (about 90%) environment.
Do not place or wash the chest belt under running
water, instead clean it with a wet cloth.
Do not place the conductive rubber face down on a
metal table or surface.
Properly dry the chest belt immediately after use.
Watch
You can wear the receiver watch on your wrist or strap it to
a bike or exercise machine, as shown below.
For first installation of bike mount, refer to “Install bike
mount” section in this manual.
TRANSMISSION SIGNAL
The heart rate chest belt and watch have a maximum
transmission range of about 62.5 centimeters (25 inches).
They are equipped with the latest digital coding system to
reduce signal interference from the environment, as well
as analog technology. For more accurate readings use the
digital transmission signal. You should only switch to the
analog transmission signal if the situation in point 2 occurs
(see below).
NOTE Whenever the watch is searching for the chest belt
signal (manual or automatic search), make sure that the chest
belt is no further than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.
Your watch will advise you which system it is using and the
signal status by displaying the following icons:
Icon Description
Outside and
inside heart flashing
Searching for a signal
Inside heart is

The signal search will take approximately 10 seconds. If
after 10 seconds the heart icon is not flashing, then your
signal search has been unsuccessful and you need to force
another signal search.
