Heart Rate program 1 is designed to keep your heart
rate between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart
rate
during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is
estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart
rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart Rate program 2
will keep your heart rate between 60% and 90% of
your maximum heart rate. Heart Rate program 3 will
keep your heart rate between 60% and 85% of your
maximum heart rate. Heart Rate program 4 will keep
your heart rate near a target heart rate that you select.
Follow the steps below to use a Heart Rate program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
Select one of the Heart Rate programs.
Each time the console is
turned on, the manual
mode will be selected. To
select a Heart Rate pro-
gram, press the Program
button repeatedly until the
number 1, 2, 3, or 4
appears in the right
display.
Enter your age and a target heart rate.
When a Heart Rate program is selected, the word
AGE and the current age setting will appear in the
left display. If you have already entered your age,
press the Enter button. If you have not entered
your age, press the small + and – buttons to enter
your age, and then press the Enter button. Once
you have entered your age, it will be saved in
memory until the batteries are replaced.
If Heart Rate program 1, 2, or 3 is selected, go
to step 4. If Heart Rate program 4 is selected,
follow the instructions below.
After you have entered your age, the letters PLS
and the current target heart rate will appear in the
left display
. If you do not wish to change the tar
-
get heart rate, press the Enter button. If you wish
to change the target heart rate, press the small +
and – buttons, and then press the Enter button.
The target heart rate can be from 70 to 170 beats
per minute.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor
.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrips continu-
ously during a Heart Rate program; however, you
must hold the handgrips frequently for the program
to operate properly. Each time you hold the
handgrips, keep your hands on the metal con-
tacts for at least 30 seconds.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate programs 1, 2, and 3 consist of either
20 or 30 one-minute periods. One resistance level
and one target heart rate are programmed for
each period. (Note: The same resistance level
and/or target heart rate may be programmed for
two or more consecutive periods.) Heart Rate
program 4 is sixty minutes long (you may choose
to use only part of the program).
The same resis-
tance level and target heart rate are programmed
for the entire program.
When you begin pedaling, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically change to the resistance
level programmed for the first period.
As you pedal, the
arrows in the right
display will help
you to keep your
heart rate near
the current target
heart rate. When
you hold the
handgrip pulse sensor, the console will compare
your heart rate to the current target heart rate. If
your heart rate is too far above or below the tar-
get heart rate, the number of arrows in the right
display will change to prompt you to increase or
decrease your pace. When the number of arrows
changes, change your pace until one segment of
the indicator bar appears at the tip of each arrow.
Important: The target pace is intended only to
provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slow-
er than the target pace, especially during the
first few months of your exercise program.
Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfort-
able for you.
During the last three seconds of each period, a
series of tones will sound and the time will flash in
the left display. The resistance of the pedals will
then change if a different resistance level is pro-
grammed for the next period. Note: If the resis-
tance level is too high or too low, you can adjust it
by pressing the Resistance buttons. However
,
when the next period begins, the resistance will
automatically change if a dif
ferent resistance level
is programmed for the next period.
