1. Attach the Sensor: Take the H9Z sensor and firmly snap it onto the two studs on the elastic chest strap.
2. Moisten Electrodes: Fully wet both sides of the electrode area on the back of the chest strap with water or electrode gel. This improves conductivity and ensures accurate readings.
3. Position the Strap: Place the chest strap directly against your skin, just below your pectoral muscles. The sensor should be centered on your chest.
4. Adjust for Comfort: Adjust the length of the strap to ensure a snug yet comfortable fit. It should be tight enough not to slip during activity but not so tight as to restrict breathing.
5. Automatic Power On: The H9Z automatically powers on when worn correctly and detects a heart rate signal.

For best results, ensure the electrodes remain moist throughout your workout. If readings become erratic, re-moisten the electrodes.
