tempe
The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor. You can
attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed
to ambient air, and therefore, provides a consistent source of
accurate temperature data. You must pair the tempe with your
device to display temperature data from the tempe.
Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
NOTE: If you do not have a heart rate monitor, you can skip this
task.
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin,
just below your breastplate. It should be snug enough to stay in
place during your activity.
