Wireless Chest Strap
• ExercisersmayuseanyPolar™-compatible(codedornon-coded)wirelessheartratetransmitterwiththe
OctaneFitnessPRO3700.
• Do not allow users to use the chest strap if they have a cardiac pacemaker or are taking
prescription medication. Medication or electrical impulses from the cardiac pacemaker can cause
inaccurate heart rate readings.
• Pleasetakecareinhandlingtheequipmentasitisextremelysensitive.
• Donotbendthestripsinsidethecheststrapasitcancausethestraptoloseitsconductivity.
• Handletheheartratetransmitter(cheststrap)withcare.Droppingthetransmittermightcausedamage
and this could void the warranty.
• Ifthereceiver(console)triesto processseveralsignalssimultaneously, anincorrectheartratereading

where the chest strap signal from a user on one machine can be received and displayed on the console of
another machine.
• Donotplace thecheststrapneardevicesthatgeneratelargemagnetic fields.Televisionsets,electric
motors, radios, and high voltage power lines can affect the transmitter’s performance. These items can
interfere with the heart rate signal that is being transmitted to the receiver, possibly affecting the heart
rate readings that appear on the electronic console.
• Do not immerse the transmitter in water. However, some moisture is necessary for the transmitter to
functionproperly.Perspirationisusuallysufficient,butyoumayneedtomoistentheelectrodes witha
small amount of water. The electrodes are the ribbed portion on the side of the transmitter that sits against
your skin.
• Thewirelesscheststraphasabatterywhichmayneedtobereplacedfromtimetotime.Afaultybattery
or worn electrodes may cause inaccurate readings. The electrodes are the ribbed portion on the side of the
transmitter that sits against your skin.
• Topurchasewirelesstransmitterstraps,contactyourdealerorOctaneFitnesssalesrepresentative.
Some individuals are unable to use the heart rate feature because they do not have the proper body chemistry
to provide accurate readings. If you experience difficulties in using the contact heart rate grips or a wireless
cheststrap,contactyourdealerorOctaneFitnessCustomerServiceat1.888.OCTANE4.
WARNING!The heart rate monitoring features of this product are for information only and are not to be used
as a measure of heart functioning or heart health. In a heart rate controlled program, the exerciser can use the
Level controls to reduce the resistance level at any time. Each exerciser is responsible for monitoring how
he or she feels and adjusting the level of effort accordingly. If at any time during exercise a user experience
chest pains, nausea, dizziness, or shortness of breath, he or she should stop exercising immediately and consult
a physician before starting again.

Console Windows
Message Center The PRO3700 Message Center features a scrolling LED display which prompts you
to enter important information, guides and motivates you through your workout, and
rewards you with clear, relevant workout data such as level, average speed, average
heart rate, maximum heart rate, calorie/hour, watts, and METs. Watch the message
center as you set up and progress through your workout—it will guide you, motivate
you, and reward you with summary information at the end of your session.
Matrix Display The matrix display shows the program profile
during the workout and highlights upcoming
intervals and resistance changes. During heart
rate interval programs (Heart Rate Interval, Heart
Rate Hill, Heart Rate Speed Interval, Heart Rate
Custom Interval, New Leaf Custom), the matrix
display is used to inform you of your progress
through the intervals:
Changing Target Heart Rates: When you are
trying to reach a new target heart rate, the left
side of the matrix display shows an illustration of
the interval. The illustration blinks the interval you
areattemptingtoreach.Eachcolumnrepresents
one minute. An arrow on the right side of the
display shows whether resistance (and therefore
your target heart rate) is increasing or decreasing.

Program Level The Random, Hill, and 10K programs allow the user to select an overall
resistance level for the program. This level is the average resistance level for
the workout. The range of resistance levels during these workouts are +/-4
of the entered program level (i.e., For program Level 5, minimum resistance is
Level1andmaximumresistanceisLevel9).Duringtheworkout,theoverall
program resistance level is displayed on the console.
Resistance in
“Constant” Programs
TheConstantWattsandConstantMETsprogramsallowtheusertoenterthe
power output level, in watts or METs, for the program. The resistance level
during these constant workouts is controlled by the machine, increasing or
decreasing as necessary in tandem with the user’s speed to keep the output
on target.

Resistance in Heart
Rate Controlled
Programs
These programs (Fat Burn, Cardio, Heart Rate Interval, Heart Rate Custom
Interval, New Leaf Custom, Heart Rate Hill, and Heart Rate Speed Interval)
allow the user to manually enter the target heart rate level for program. If the
target HR is reached during the warm-up, the warm-up ends and the selected
heart rate control program begins. The resistance level during the heart rate
controlled workout is controlled by the machine, increasing or decreasing as
necessary to keep the user’s heart rate on target.

This challenging program provides a simple test of fitness
levelwith5setsof30-secondsprintandrecoveryintervals.
For each set, the program monitors heart rate and calculates
the average minimum and average maximum heart rates
and the average number of beats the heart rate recovers
between sprint intervals. Heart rate recovery is a relative
indicator of fitness level; a higher number indicates a
more rapid heart rate recovery and therefore represents a
relatively better level of fitness.
