manufacturer to determine safety in your case.
If you are allergic to any substance that
comes into contact with your skin or if you
suspect an allergic reaction due to using the
product, check the listed materials in
Technical Specifications. To avoid any skin
reaction to the heart rate sensor, wear it over a
shirt, but moisten the shirt well under the
electrodes to ensure flawless operation.
The combined impact of moisture and intense
abrasion may cause a black color to come off the
heart rate sensor’s surface, possibly staining
light-colored clothes. If you use perfume or insect
repellent on your skin, you must ensure that it does
not come into contact with the training computer or
the heart rate sensor.
Training equipment with electronic
components may cause interfering stray
signals. To tackle these problems, try the
following:
1.
Remove the heart rate sensor from your
chest and use the training equipment as you
would normally.
2.
Move the wrist unit around until you find an
area in which it displays no stray reading or
does not flash the heart symbol.
Interference is often worst right in front of
the display panel of the equipment, while
the left or right side of the display is
relatively free of disturbance.
3.
Put the heart rate sensor back on your chest
and keep the wrist unit in this
interference-free area as much as possible.
If the FT80 still does not work, the piece of
equipment may be electrically too noisy for
wireless heart rate measurement.
FT80 may be worn when swimming. To
maintain water resistance, do not press
buttons under water. For more information,
