Precor Heart Rate Option—Safety Guidelines

A heart rate receiver is installed in the EFX display console. It is activated when you

wear a POLAR®chest strap during your workout. Once a heart beat is detected, it is

displayed on the console.

The Precor Heart Rate Option was created and designed exclusively for Precor

products.The equipment is extremely sensitive—you should use the heart rate option

with this in mind and take time to read the guidelines found on page 37.

RFI — Radio Frequency Interference

Federal Communications Commission, Part 15

The EFX®5.23 has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B

digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installa-

tion.The EFX generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the owner’s manual instructions, may cause

harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If the EFX does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which

can be determined by turning the unit OFF and ON, you are encouraged to try to

correct the interference using one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna for your TV, radio, VCR, etc.

• Increase separation between the unit and the receiver (TV, radio, etc.).

• Connect the unit into a different power outlet—on a dedicated circuit different

from the one used by the receiver (TV, radio, etc.). No other appliance should be

plugged into the same power outlet that the EFX is connected to.

• Consult an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

provides a path of least resistance for electric current which reduces the risk of

electrical shock.The unit is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-

grounding conductor and a grounding plug.The plug must be inserted into an

appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances. If you do not follow these

void the Precor limited warranty.

DANGER

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of

electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt

as to whether the unit is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the

EFX. If it doesn’t fit the outlet, get a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
