Remark: Conditions vary ac-
cording to the training pro-
gram.
Upper limit pulse rate is auto-
matically determined from
your age, so there is no need
to revise this number yourself,
unless you have a particular
purpose.
• Let's try changing the displayed
target pulse rate from 120 to 115.
• Press the
MODE
button until
"120" is flashing. You want to re-

• At this stage review your workout
data such as time and calorie con-
sumption.
• Press the

more and the printer will give a
printout of calories expended,
then the display turns to the initial

• The card is a tool for program
choice and setting training condi-
tions. It saves you the trouble of
setting the same training condi-
tions each time you use the exer-
ciser. For instructions on how to
make a card, please refer to page
42, "How to make a data card" in
the Operation section.
