minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. (The same target
heart rate setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.) The second heart
rate program is divided into 100 one-minute seg-
ments. The same target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for all segments. Note: For a shorter
workout, simply stop the program before it ends.
If the first heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the
target heart rate setting
for the first segment will
be shown in the flashing
Current Segment col-
umn of the matrix. The
target heart rate settings
for the next four seg-
ments will be shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg
-
ment of the program,
both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash and a
series of tones will sound.
When the first segment ends,
all target heart rate
settings will move one column to the left.
The tar-
get heart rate setting for the second segment will
