Excessive movement may interfere with heart rate readings. • Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate readings. • For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the metal contacts for about 15 seconds. • For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth-never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. 12
