Precor 776i Treadmill User Manual


 
User’s Reference Manual: Heart Rate Features 8
The SmartRate indicator lights do not appear when:
You do not wear or improperly position the chest strap. Or, you fail
to grasp both touch-sensitive handlebar grips for five to ten
seconds.
You do not enter your age before or during an exercise session.
For example, pressing QUICKSTART at the Precor banner causes
the Manual Program to begin. Your age has not been entered and
is considered a null value. The LEDs do not light in the SmartRate
display because the appropriate calculations have not been made.
Note: You can remedy this situation by pressing the OPTIONS
key and entering your weight and age.
Refer to Fitness Tools on the Precor web site www.precor.com for
exercise suggestions and routines.
Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate
A heart rate receiver is an integral part of the display so you can
monitor your heart rate while exercising. If you wear a chest strap or
grasp both touch-sensitive handlebar grips, your heart rate (beats per
minute) appears on the display.
The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several suggestions for
workouts with varying levels of intensity. It provides many workout
details that include the appropriate target heart rate.
The cycle includes a heart rate program that lets you exercise based
on a specified target heart rate. As you exercise, the program monitors
your heart rate and automatically maintains it within a few beats per
minute of your selected target. To use this program, press the
PROGRAMS - HEART RATE key. For more information, refer to
Programs.
