OWNER'S MANUAL

We have defined three different heart-rate
zones to help you with targeted training.
BEGINNER: 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers,
convalescents and those who haven’t exercised
for a long time. Three sessions a week of at
least a half-hour each is recommended. Regular
exercise considerably improves beginners’
respiratory and circulatory performance and
you will quickly feel your improvement.
TRAINER: 60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness.
Even reasonable effort develops the heart and
lungs effectively, training for a minimum of 30
minutes at least three times a week. To improve
your condition still further, increase either
frequency or effort, but not both at the same
time!
ACTIVE TRAINER: 70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
USE
ADJUSTING RESISTANCE
You can increase or decrease resistance
by turning the adjuster knob on the front
frame. Turn the adjustment knob clockwise
(+ direction) to increase resistance and
counterclockwise (- direction) to decrease
resistance. The scale above the knob (1-8) helps
you find and reset a suitable resistance.
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The console has a heart rate receiver
compatible with Polar equipment, so you can
also use Polar uncoded heart rate belts for
heart rate measurement. The most reliable
heart rate measurement is achieved with a
telemetric device, in which the electrodes of
the transmitter fastened to the chest transmit
the pulses from the heart to the console by
means of an electromagnetic field.
NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a wireless
heart rate monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved
electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva
or water. Fasten the transmitter just below
the chest with the elastic belt, firmly enough
so that the electrodes remain in contact with
the skin while exercising, but not so tight that
normal breathing is prevented. Attach the
transmitter and adjust the flexible belt to an
appropriate tightness below chest level so
that the electrodes are in contact with the skin
during exercise. If you wear the transmitter and
belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly
at the points where the electrodes touch the
shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits
the heart rate reading to the console up to a
distance of about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the
heart-rate reading will not appear on the
display. If the electrodes are dry, they must be
moistened again. Allow the electrodes warm
up properly to ensure accurate heart rate
measurement. The transmitter is switched to
an active state only when it is being used for
measurement. Sweat and other moisture can,
however, keep the transmitter in an active
state and waste battery energy. Therefore it is
important to dry the electrodes carefully after
use.
When selecting training attire, please note
that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity, which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement. Please
note that a mobile phone, television and other
electrical appliances form an electromagnetic
field around them, which will cause problems
in heart rate measurement.

The selection dial functions in two ways:
A) Rotating the dial (+ / -).
B) Pressing the dial (ENTER).
