Target HR
This program allows you to set a target heart rate and the machine will automatically adjust the work
load to safely reach the target and maintain that target.
Use the Enter key to select the Target HR program and press Enter. The display will show a number
and the age icon at top will be blinking. Use the Enter key to adjust the age and press Enter. The
display will now show a blinking percent number or the letters THR (Target Heart Rate).
You may use the ENTER key to choose either 55%, 75%, 90% or THR. The percentage choices will
automatically set the target to a percent of your maximum heart rate, based on your age. This is why
it is important to adjust the age properly. The console will use a formula to determine the correct
percentage: 220 age = maximum HR. For example a 30 years old persons Max HR is 190 BPM
(220 30 = 190 BPM). If the 30 year old wants to work at 75%, their target HR will be 142BPM.
After adjusting all the parameters (Time, Distance, Calories), press Start to begin your workout.
If you want to choose to work at 75% - for example - then use the ENTER key to highlight 75%
and press Enter. Now the Time window will be blinking and you can program it and other data
the same as other programs. If you want to set your own custom Target HR then use the
ENTER key to highlight THR and press Enter. The Pulse window will now be blinking. Use the
ENTER key to set your own Target HR and press Enter to continue.
