Contact Heart Rate
C O: B O
The contact heart rate (CHR) system lets you monitor your
heart rate without wearing a
strap.
Gently grasp the contact
heart rate pads as shown in
picture. When the system
detects your hands, the Heart
Rate label will start flashing
in time with your heart beat.
During this time, the system
is analyzing and locking
in your heart rate. Within
approximately 15 seconds, your digital heart rate in beats per
minute (bpm) should be displayed.
For Best CHR Results:
1. Exercise with smooth body motions.
2. Breathe smoothly and regularly, and avoid talking. (Talking
will cause unrepresentative heart rate spikes of 5 to 10 bpm.)
3. Grip the pads lightly, not tightly.
4. Make sure your hands are clean, free of both dirt and hand
lotions.
When using a HRC workout, it is best to use chest strap
monitoring. These workouts work best with the extra accuracy
gained from a chest-contact heart rate monitoring system.
