IMPORTANT Things You Should Know Before Exercising
A. The values calculated or measured by the computer are for
exercise reference purposes only, NOT FOR MEDICAL PURPOSES.
Please consult your physician before starting any exercise
program. He or she can help establish the exercise frequency,
intensity, (including determining your maximum and minimum
heart rate and target heart rate zones) and the exercise time
appropriate for your particular age and condition. If you have
any pain or tightness in your chest, an irregular heart beat,
shortness of breath, feel faint or have any discomfort while you
exercise, STOP! Consult your physician before continuing.
B. Pulse rate — The pulse rate will be displayed after the system has
detected 4 stable pulse signals. Pulse rate is then updated after
receiving every two signals.
***Please Note: If your heart rate goes above 199, the “1” will
flash. So a heart rate of 224 will be displayed as 124, and the 1
will be flashing***
C. Pulse rate readout — While the grip heart rate feature is a quick
and convenient way to check your heart rate, it is generally not as
accurate as a wireless transmitter belt and is subject to occasional
mis-readings and interference. You may, from time to time find
inconsistencies with the heart rate display on your display console.
There are many external factors that can affect the heart rate display.
Some factors that influence the reliability of the heart rate signal
include the environment where the equipment is used and even
the physiology of the users themselves. Electromagnetic interference
produced by such items as televisions, computers, microwave
ovens, cellular and cordless telephones and fluorescent lights can
also have an effect on the heart rate display on your equipment.
By moving the product away from such items, you may be able to
avoid many heart rate display problems.
D. Resistance Control — You can control the resistance of the bike
by using the
UP or DOWN buttons. You increase the resistance by
pressing the
UP button or decrease the resistance by pressing
DOWN button. You will notice a slight lag in time while the electronic
brake adjusts to your input, so make sure to allow for this and
don’t over-compensate.
E. Sleep Mode - The console will enter a “Sleep” mode and the system
will turn off automatically if there is no input for approximately 2
minutes. Press any button to return the computer to its pre-
“Sleep” state or press and hold the
RESET button for 2 seconds
to clear the computer.
