CAUSE: Hairy Skin
SOLUTION: Apply conductive gel to chest area or wrist.

Strap Measurement) such as overhead power lines, etc.
SOLUTION: Leave the area where RF source potentially exist.
CAUSE: Issues acquiring heart rate.
SOLUTION: Try resetting the exercise timer which will tell the

(including Mercury – Hg, Cadmium – Cd and Lead – Pb) which could
be harmful to our environment and therefore our health. We must all
be careful to dispose of them responsibly in a specifi cally designated
way – either using a collection scheme or into the correctly labeled
