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 film of sweat to improve contact with the skin.
NOTE
To maintain the best performance of your chest belt,
please handle it with care according to the following:
•
Do not wrap the chest belt in a wet towel nor with other
wet materials.
•
Do not store the chest belt in a hot (about 50°C) and
humid (about 90%) environment.
•
Do not place or wash the chest belt under running
water, instead clean it with a wet cloth.
•
Do not place the conductive rubber face down on a
metal table or surface.
•
Properly dry the chest belt immediately after use.
