When connected, the Console will display the Bluetooth® Heart Rate Chest Strap Connected icon. If you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, consult your doctor before using a Bluetooth® chest strap or other Bluetooth® heart rate monitor. 1. Put on your Bluetooth® Heart Rate Chest Strap and activate it. 2. Push the Connect Bluetooth® button. The Console will actively search for any devices in the area. The Bluetooth® Heart Rate Chest Strap Connected icon will flash on the Console while searching. Note: Any previously connected Chest Straps will be disconnected. However, if they are within range, the Console may find them again if unable to locate your Chest Strap. 3. The Bluetooth® Heart Rate Chest Strap Connected icon will stop blinking when connected. You are ready to workout. At the end of your workout, push the Connect Bluetooth® button to disconnect your Chest Strap from the Console. Contact Heart Rate Sensors Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors send your heart rate signals to the Console. The CHR sensors are the stainless steel parts of the Handlebars. To use, put your hands comfortably around the sensors. Be sure that your hands touch both the top and the bottom of the sensors. Hold firm, but not too tight or loose. Both hands must make contact with the sensors for the Console to detect a pulse. After the Console detects four stable pulse signals, your initial pulse rate will be shown. Once the Console has your initial heart rate, do not move or shift your hands for 10 to 15 seconds. The Console will now validate the heart rate. Many factors influence the ability of the sensors to detect your heart rate signal: • 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. 23
