(CHR) sensors are installed to send your heart rate signals to the Console. The Console can also read telemetry HR sig-
nals from a Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter that operates in the 4.5kHz - 5.5kHz range.
Note: The heart rate chest strap must be an uncoded heart rate strap
from Polar Electro or an uncoded POLAR

• Movement of the upper body muscles (including arms) produces an electrical signal (muscle artifact) that can interfere
with pulse detection. Slight hand movement while in contact with the sensors can also produce interference.
• Calluses and hand lotion may act as an insulating layer to reduce the signal strength.
• Some Electrocardiogram (EKG) signals generated by individuals are not strong enough to be detected by the sensors.
