Heart Rate
Control
The heart rate monitor transmitter strap should be worn
according to the guidelines in Chapter 2.
If the transmitter strap is adjusted or moved while exercising,
heart rate monitoring may be temporarily affected.
If communication is lost for 30 seconds, the bike will exit the
HRC workout into a manual workout.
The transmitter strap sends a low-level radio signal to the bike,
so interference from other radio and sound waves (including
everything from cordless telephones to loudspeakers) is
possible. The good news is that interference is usually quite
brief. If you continue to have intermittent heart rate display
problems, consult your local service technician, as the
transmitter strap batteries may be low.
Make sure you breathe smoothly and regularly.
Talking during your workout usually causes heart rate spikes
of five beats per minute or more, so avoid talking as much as
possible.
Maintain a smooth pedaling motion.
Two users wearing the same kind of transmitter at the same
time and in close proximity may cause false heart rate display
readings.
