3.4.3 User-defined programs: User 1, User 2, User 3, User 4
P14-P17 are user programs. The user can determine the resistance for each of the 10 training sections.
Then the time, distance, calories and heart rate can be defined.
1. Select a user program P14-P17 with the arrow buttons and press ENTER to confirm.
2. Use the arrow buttons in order to set the resistance for the first section and press ENTER to
confirm.
3. Repeat step 2 for the remaining nine training steps.
4. After you set the resistance for all training sections, use the arrow buttons to set a training time
and press ENTER to confirm.
5. Use the arrow buttons in order to set a training distance and press ENTER to confirm.
6. Use the arrow buttons in order to set a calorie number and press ENTER to confirm.
7. Use the arrow buttons in order to set a heart rate and press ENTER to confirm.
8. Press START/STOP in order to immediately begin training.
If you enter a target value for time, distance and calories, the training will stop automatically once
you have achieved one of these target values. If you would just like to train according to one of these
values, you simply have to enter the desired target value - you do not have to enter all other values. If
you enter a target pulse, an alarm will sound once this pulse has been exceeded. The acoustic signal
first stops once your pulse is no longer higher than the target pulse.
3.4.4 Heart rate controlled programs: 55%, 65%, 75%, 85%, target
heart rate
P18-P22 are heart rate controlled programs. The console adjusts the resistance according to your
current heart rate. If your heart rate is below the target heart rate, the console will increase the
resistance every 20 seconds. If your heart rate is above the target heart rate, the console will decrease
the resistance every 20 seconds.
P18: 55% of the maximum heart rate. Target heart rate = (220-age) x 55%
P19: 65% of the maximum heart rate. Target heart rate = (220-age) x 65%
P20: 75% of the maximum heart rate. Target heart rate = (220-age) x 75%
P21: 85% of the maximum heart rate. Target heart rate = (220-age) x 85%
P22: User-defined target heart rate
