length of workout time without leaving the Workout Progress Screen.)
NOTE: Changing the length of a workout by using the TIME ELAPSED button has no effect on
the time elapsed, which is an ongoing measurement of the time already spent in a workout.
S. TARGET HEART RATE: (for heart rate workouts only) Displays the target heart rate* the user
has specified in the workout setup screens. Can be changed anytime during a workout, by using
the arrow keys directly below it, or by touching the TARGET HEART RATE button on the
Touchscreen and accessing the Target Heart Rate Workout Setup Screen.
T. ACTUAL HEART RATE: Displays the heart rate if the user grasps the Lifepulse sensors or wears
a Polar-compatible heart rate chest strap. NOTE: Heart rate can be checked on any of the
screens, whether before a workout begins, or during a workout.
U. LEVEL: Displays the programmed intensity level. Select LEVEL and then use the arrow buttons
or the numerical pad to make a new selection. Press ENTER. (Use the arrow keys on the Control
Panel directly underneath Level to change the level of exertion without leaving the Workout
Progress Screen.)
V. WORKOUT STATISTICS: Continually updates the workout progress by showing Distance,
Calories Burned (switches between calories burned and calories per hour), Watts/METs, Heart
Rate (on any workout if the user is grasping the Lifepulse sensors of wearing a telemetry strap),
Target Heart Rate* and MPH (the pedaling speed in miles per hour, or kilometers per hour).
Cal/Hr and METs/Watts have buttons beneath the displays which give added functionality. These but-
tons can be used to lock the display or to force the display to toggle. To lock the display, (for instance,
turn off the toggle so only calories burned is displayed) simple press the button once while the desired
setting is displayed. To toggle (for instance, if METs is displayed to change the display immediately to
Watts) press the button twice in succession.

* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum. For example, a 40-year-old user's THR for the
FAT BURN workout is 117. This workout targets 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-40)*.65=117
