THE TRANSMITTER
The transmitter is used to count your heartbeat and
transmit the data to the receiver. To put it on:
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the
transmitter with water or a conductive gel to help
establish a solid contact.
2. Strap the transmitter across the chest. Adjust the
strap until the transmitter sits snugly below the
pectoral muscles for an accurate heart rate signal.
HINTS
• The position of the transmitter affects its performance.
Move the transmitter along the strap for the best
transmission. Avoid areas with dense chest hair.
• In dry, cold climates, it takes the transmitter a while
to function steadily. This is normal, as the conductive
pads need a fi lm of sweat to improve contact with
the skin.
THE RECEIVER
The receiver comes in the format of a wristwatch.
