THE
HEART
RATE
FEATURE
To
use the heart rate features you must wear the POLAR chest strap while
working out unless you are using the C956 with the touch-sensitive handrail grips.
The chest strap transmits your heart rate signal to the receiver installed
in
the
display console. The signal appears as your pulse rate on the display. During your
workout, the heart rate indicator lights and blinks at the same rate as your pulse.
This lets you see what your heart rate is doing even when the display is present-
ing other workout statistics.
Note: The Smart
Rate
tl
display does not appear if you use the
Quick
Start
key to
access a course. Refer to QUICK START on page 30.
