The Borg Scale of Perceived
Exertion Helps You Find
Your Target Heart Rate
This simple test relies on how hard
exercise feels in terms of heart and
lung exertion. “Very Light” corresponds
closely to 40 percent of maximum heart
rate, while “Extremely Hard” is close to
100 percent.
Strive for a “Somewhat Hard” level and
you’ll get close to your target heart
rate. You should always be able to carry
on a conversation while exercising. If
you can’t, reduce your intensity level
until you can!
Always ask your physician
what your target heart rate
range should be if you are
over the age of 65, have
heart related health problems
(heart attack, heart surgery,
angioplasty), or take heart or
blood pressure medications.

Affected Area Problem Potential Cause Verify Cause Corrective Action
Arms The user feels a
slight “jerky” feeling
in arm movements
at higher workloads.
Is there a newer user
getting used to the
feel of the motion?
This is normal
operation and most
users will develop
a smoother motion
over time.
Display For all display trou-
bleshooting, replace
the batteries first.
Low battery. The low battery
indicator may or may
not be illuminated on
the display.
Replace batteries.
The display lights
up but does not
operate.
The ribbon cable con-
nector is not plugged
in correctly.
Remove the display
to investigate.
Make sure the key
of the ribbon cable
connector inserts
into the slot on the
display connector.
All of the LCDs are
equally faint.
Low battery. Replace batteries.
The Heart Rate is
not showing on the
display.
Is the user wearing
the Polar transmitter
belt correctly?
Make sure the chest
and belt contacts
are moistened and
the belt is properly
positioned.
