CAUTION!
The target value used in H-1 and H-2 programs is a suggestion only for normal, healthy
individuals. Do not exceed your limits! You may not be able to obtain your chosen target.
If in question, enter a higher age value that will set a lower target goal.
How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter:
1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts.
2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain
comfortable.
3. Position the transmitter with the Spirit logo centered in the middle of your body facing
away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
Attach the final end of the elastic strap by inserting the round end and, using the locking
parts, secure the transmitter and strap around your chest.
4. Position the transmitter immediately below the pectoral muscles.
5. Sweat is the best conductor to measure very minute heart beat electrical signals.
However, plain water can also be used to pre-wet the electrodes (2 black square areas
on the reverse side of the belt and either side of transmitter). It’s also recommended
that you wear the transmitter strap a few minutes before your work out. Some users,
because of body chemistry, have a more difficult time in achieving a strong, steady
signal at the beginning. After “warming up”, this problem lessens. As noted, wearing
clothing over the transmitter/strap doesn’t affect performance.
6. Your workout must be within range - distance between transmitter/receiver – to
achieve a strong steady signal. The length of range may vary somewhat but generally
stay close enough to the console to maintain good, strong, reliable readings. Wearing
the transmitter immediately against bare skin assures you of proper operation. If you
wish, you may wear the transmitter over a shirt. To do so, moisten the areas of the shirt
that the electrodes will rest upon.
Note: The transmitter is automatically activated when it detects activity from the user’s heart. Additionally,
it automatically deactivates when it does not receive any activity. Although the transmitter is water
resistant, moisture can have the effect of creating false signals, so you should take precautions to
completely dry the transmitter after use to prolong battery life (estimated transmitter battery life is 2500
hours). The replacement battery is Panasonic CR2032.
Erratic Operation:
Caution! Do not use this treadmill for Heart Rate Control unless a steady, solid
Actual Heart Rate value is being displayed. High, wild, random numbers being
displayed indicate a problem.
Areas to look for on interference:
(1) Treadmill not properly grounded - A must!
(2) Microwave ovens, TV’s, small appliances, etc.
(3) Fluorescent lights.
(4) Some household security systems.
(5) Perimeter fence for a pet.
(6) Loose treadmill console / upright.
WARNING!
DO NOT USE THE HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAM IF YOUR HEART RATE IS
NOT REGISTERING PROPERLY ON THE TREADMILL’S DISPLAY!
