To review accumulated data after a program: The display automatically cycles through your
accumulated workout data during the Workout Review for 20 seconds (default setting).
In order to display your heart rate, you must either use a Polar compatible heart rate transmitter belt
(not included) or hold the handgrips to use Contact Heart Rate.
Contact Heart Rate - Hold the handgrips on the handlebar until a heart rate is displayed, typically less
than thirty seconds. For best results, hold the handgrips lightly and ensure that your hands contact
both the front and back sensors of each grip. NOTE: Hold your hands as steady as possible as
movement can cause interference on the contacts.
Factors that can interfere with the heart rate signal include:
• excessive movement
• body composition
• hydration
• too loose grip
• too tight grip
• excessive dirt, powder or oil
• resting or leaning on the grips
Contaminant’s, such as hand lotions, oils or body powder, may come off on the contact heart rate
grips. These can reduce sensitivity and interfere with the heart rate signal. Therefore, ensure you have
clean hands when using the contact heart rate.
Polar Compatible Reception - To use this feature, a Polar compatible heart rate transmitter belt must
be worn. To view heart rate continuously, press the Scan key when the Heart LED is lit or press the
Heart key.
When the handgrips are held for several seconds the display will show “---”. Once the actual heart
rate is determined the center window displays the BPM and the Heart LED lights up. See Figure 2. The
color of the light represents a scale of low to high target heart rate.
