5.8 Workout Mode - Potential Causes for NO Heart Rate Reading
or Long Response Time
1) Cause: Dry Skin.

conductive gel is not available.
2) Cause: Chest strap is not placed firmly over the chest.
Solution: Make sure the chest strap is placed firmly over the chest by tightening elastic
band.

Strap or Watch from picking up one's ECG.
Solution: Wipe chest and the back of Chest Strap with a tissue or soft towel.
6) Cause: Hairy skin.
Solution: Apply conductive gel to chest area or wrist.
7) Cause: Irregular heartbeats.
Solution: N/A It is difficult to consistently pick up a reading for those with irregular heart
beats. Inconsistent response times are expected for those with arrhythmia.
8) Cause: Battery Low.
Solution: It might be due to the battery level of the Chest Strap / watch is low. Replace
the battery and try again.
9) Cause: Interference of other RF devices (Chest-Strap Measurement)
Solution: Depart from the place where RF source potentially exist.
