■ Grip Heart Rate
This Schwinn bike is equipped with grip heart rate sensors located on the
handlebars. You must contact these sensors with both hands so the com-
puter can detect your pulse. The computer uses information detected by
the grip heart rate sensors for many of the software features. Make sure
you are griping the pods and look for the flashing “heart” icon and pulse
rate located on the lower right portion of the LCD display (to the left of the
CYCLIST icon) indicating that a pulse signal is being received. This is
extremely important for the Heart Rate Control and Fitness Test programs.
The computer must receive a steady, consistent signal for the duration of
these programs to operate correctly. If there is no display please see the
section titled “IMPORTANT Things You Should Know Before Exercising”
for more information.
