Owner’s Manual: Heart Rate Features 11
After you put on the chest strap, face the display console
for a minimum of 15 seconds. This allows the receiver in
the console to recognize the signal from the chest strap.
If three dashes (— — —) appear on the display, the EFX
cannot detect a heart rate. Make sure the chest strap is
positioned properly around your chest and against your skin.
Always face forward on the EFX and use the stationary
handrail for balance.
Maintain a constant stride rate while exercising. Find a
comfortable stride rate between 100 and 150 strides per
minute.
Using SmartRate
The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain your
heart rate in the target zone best suited to your specific
needs. When you wear a chest strap, a blinking LED appears
on the SmartRate display. The blinking LED indicates the
zone that your heart rate is in, either weight loss or
cardiovascular.
The SmartRate indicator lights do not appear when:
You press QUICKSTART at the banner.
You bypass the AGE prompt.
You do not wear or improperly position the chest strap.
Note: Review the information on the QUICKSTART card that
accompanies your literature packet. It explains how to adjust
the chest strap.
