Functions and Operation of the Training Computer

5. Possibilities for Pulse Measurement
The pulse measurement starts as soon as the heart in the display
blinks in time with your pulse beat.
With ear clip
The pulse sensor works with infrared light and measures the varia-
tions in translucence in your skin, which are produced by your
pulse beat. Rub your ear ten times strongly to activate the blood
circulation before attaching the pulse sensor to your earlobe.
Avoid disturbing pulses.
• Attach the ear clip properly to your earlobe and look for the
best point for the measurement (heart symbol blinks without
interruption).
• Do not train directly under strong incidence of light, e.g. neon
light, halogen light, spotlight, sun light.
• Completely eliminate any shocks or bounces of the ear sensor
and the cable. Always attach the cable with a clip at your
clothing or, even better, at your headband.
With chest strap
If a chest strap should be used optionally, the connection
between the chest strap and the training computer must be esta-
blished by using a plug-in receiver. Chest strap and plug-in
receiver can be ordered subsequently.
With hand pulse
An extra-low voltage caused by the contractions of your heart is
registered by the hand sensors and evaluated by the electronics
assembly of the device.
• Always grab the contact faces with both hands.
• Avoid jerky grasping.
• Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and rubbing
on the contact faces.
Comment:
Only one way of pulse measurement is possible: either with ear
clip or with hand pulse or with breast belt. If no ear clip or plug
recipient is located in the pulse plug, hand pulse measurement is
activated. If you insert an ear clip or a plug recipient in the pulse
plug, hand pulse measurement is automatically deactivated. It is
not necessary to disconnect the plug of the hand pulse measu-
rement.
Notes
– If no signal is transmitted to the computer for 4 minutes, the
LCD will shut off automatically and all existing training data
will be stored. You can then press any button to reactivate
the computer.
– If the computer is not displaying correctly, disconnect and
then reconnect the power supply.
6. Disposal of used batteries and storage
batteries
This symbol tells you that batteries and storage batteries
must not be disposed of with the normal household waste.
The symbols Hg (mercury) and Pb (lead) underneath the
crossed-out rubbish bin also tell you that the battery or storage
battery contains more than 0.0005% mercury or more than
0.004% lead.
Improper disposal damages the environment and can damage
people’s health. Recycling of materials conserves precious raw
materials. When disposing of the appliance, remove all batteries
and storage batteries from the product and hand them over to
the collection point for the recycling of batteries or electrical or
electronic appliances. Information about the appropriate
collection points can be obtained from your local authorities,
your waste disposal team or in the outlet where this appliance
was sold.
