Heart Rate Readings: Handle Bars and Wireless Chest Strap

This treadmill incorporates double heart rate reading system: the Lifepulse system and the Polar telemetry.

To use the Lifepulse system, grasp the stainless steel sensors on the handlebars. Hold them for 20-30 seconds. We recommend you to use this system for speeds below 4.5mph or 7.2 kph.

If you plan to run faster or go through the Heart Rate workouts use the Polar chest strap which leaves your hands free. Use it on bare skin.

The readings are much better than on the cheaper models we’ve tested. And they complete the workouts inserted in the console perfectly.
