1.4 WEARING YOUR TRANSMITTER
Coded heart rate transmission reduces interference from other heart rate monitors that are close by. To make sure that the
code search is successful and to ensure trouble-free heart rate monitoring, keep the cycling computer within 1 meter/
3 feet of your transmitter. Check that you are not near other people with heart rate monitors or any source of electromagnetic
disturbance. For further information on interference, see Precautions on page 53.
To measure your heart rate, you need to wear the transmitter.
See detailed washing instructions in Care and Maintenance chapter.
