THE HEART RATE FEATURE
To use the heart rate features, you must hold onto the touch-sensitive grips on the
handrails while working out. While in the process of detecting your heart rate, the
blinking letters “HR” appear in the display. Within a few seconds, your heart rate
appears. This lets you see what your heart rate is doing even when the display is
presenting other workout statistics.
Note: The SmartRate display does not appear if you use the QUICKSTART key
to access a program. Refer to QUICKSTART on page 28.
Important: An optional POLAR
®
chest strap can be worn and it will transmit your
heart rate signal to the receiver installed in the display console. The POLAR
®
chest
strap can be purchased through your dealer. Refer to Optional Equipment on page 9.
