G.PULSE 12 FUNCTION HEART RATE MONITOR WITH NEW EXERCISE TECHNOLOGY

For accurate readings and best performance, please read the following suggestions.
The skin types of people and their heart rate signals vary. You may need to take some time to become
familiar with the Transmitter Strap to achieve stable signals. So please be patient, especially during the
cold, dry winter months.
Dry conductive rubber and skin contact will cause erroneous readings of "0" of heart rate display, so
please moisten the conductive rubber area by using water, saliva, ECG gel or other conductive liquids for
accurate and stable reading. DO NOT use Vaseline or oils which may insulate the Transmitter making it
unable to detect the heart rate signals or any electromagnetic devices such as television, computer, cell
phone, mechanical, watches...etc.
Heart rate display may drop to " 0"or jump to "250" when near high tension power lines and
transformers, or any electromagnetic devices such as television, computer, cell phone, mechanical
watches etc. Execute "MODE CLEAR" to clear all records and leave the area of interference to get
your actual heart rate displayed again.
Dehydration and alcohol consumption can affect the detection and accuracy of the heart rate display. For
accurate readings, do not use the Transmitter and wait until your body is back to normal levels.
Body hair can affect the detection and transmission of heart rate. If necessary, trim and shave the hair to
keep a smooth transmitter contact.
Transmitter rubber contacts should be flat on your body when you adjust the chest strap.
For certain individuals, the computer will work better if the transmitter is worn either more to the left side,
a little higher, a little lower or possibly upside down.
Always warm-up before exercise, use Heart Rate Monitor to keep within your target zone to exercise
efficiently and safely, and cool down for a few minutes at a low intensity before stopping.
Wear the transmitter against your bare skin to ensure best detection.
However, if your skin type is allergic and wish to wear the transmitter over a thin shirt, moisten the shirt
well under two conductive pads area for better detection.
CONDITION UNDER WATER
1. The heart rate monitors are water resistant up to 30 meters. The buttons on the watch unit must not be
pressed when swimming or underwater to prevent water intake.
2. Due to the high conductivity of water heart rate measurement is not accurate and may cause erratic
reading on the watch unit.
3. Swimming pools have a high concentration of chlorine and sea water also is very acidic and conductive.
Signals are unable to transfer correctly in these environments.
