Using the Heart Rate 
Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips
While exercising, you must grasp both touch-sensitive 
handrail grips for a minimum of five to ten seconds to 
transmit your heart rate to the display. Refer to Diagram 11.
Diagram 11: Touch-sensitive handrail grips
Usually, the concentration of salts in a person’s perspiration 
provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the 
receiver inside the display console. However, some people, 
because of body chemistry or erratic heart beats cannot use 
the touch-sensitive heart rate feature on the EFX. A chest 
strap may provide better results.
Important: While exercising, do not grasp the touch-
sensitive handrail grips and wear the chest strap at the 
same time. The touch-sensitive handrail grips override the 
signals from the chest strap transmitter. If used together, 
inconsistent readings may occur.
Using SmartRate
The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain your 
heart rate in the target zone best suited to your specific 
needs. All 10 LEDs may light during a workout. When the 
EFX detects a heart rate, a single LED blinks and indicates 
the zone that your heart rate is in.
Important: To use the SmartRate feature, you must enter 
your age during the setup phase of your exercise session.
The 10 LEDs in the SmartRate display are color-coded. A 
pulsating orange LED indicates you are outside the 
recommended heart rate target zone. Green LEDs indicate 
when you are exercising within the recommended fat burn or 
cardio fitness zones.
