operation<br />
N Pay attention to all safety instructions <strong>and</strong> warnings in the instruction manual of this<br />
<strong>machine</strong> <strong>and</strong> of all accessories <strong>and</strong> options involved.<br />
N Heart rate monitoring systems can be inaccurate.<br />
N Overtraining can lead to serious injury or death.<br />
N If you feel close to fainting, the training is to be stopped immediately.<br />
N Stop training immediately if feeling sick or dizzy, pain or in case of any other health<br />
problem <strong>and</strong> see your doctor.<br />
N In the case of detected or suspected interference of the wireless heart rate transmission<br />
do not use the cardio mode.<br />
N The operation of the cardio mode is forbidden, if the health <strong>and</strong> the condition of the test<br />
person / patient do not allow it <strong>and</strong> a doctor has not authorized these loads. Disregard may<br />
cause injuries <strong>and</strong> dangerous health problems.<br />
N At automatic <strong>and</strong> cardio operation the test person / patient <strong>and</strong> supervisory staff have to<br />
impropriate exact knowledge about the expected loads before starting <strong>and</strong> anticipate an<br />
automatic load alternation (speed, acceleration, decelaration, elevation <strong>and</strong> STOP) at any<br />
time. It is necessary to meet the appropriate higher <strong>and</strong> reasonable safety precautions.<br />
[7.B9] Cardio mode - Field of application / control<br />
The Cardio Mode controls the <strong>running</strong> <strong>machine</strong> so that the heart rate of the subject stays within a predefined zone.<br />
Therefore the subject has to wear a corresponding chest belt.<br />
Adjust the belt length so that the belt fits<br />
tightly but does not confine you. The belt<br />
should not loosen while exercising. Close the<br />
belt with transmitter placed outwards<br />
(POLAR-Logo in right position).<br />
In order to allow an optimal skin contact the<br />
skin should be moist. Contact gel, as used for<br />
ECG, is an excellent solution. Moisten the<br />
two electrodes <strong>and</strong> the skin with water or<br />
contact gel, which is available at chemistries.<br />
Place the transmitter so that it is right below the pectoral muscle (chest), as is shown in the illustration above. For<br />
ca. 95 ... 98 % of the subjects the "normal" placement of the transmitter belt is recommended.
