Heart-rate measuring
Pulse measuring via hand sensors
The hand sensors integrated in the handles beside the seat allow you to determine your heart rate.
You can measure your heart rate by lightly grasping the sensors with both hands at the same time.
Blood pressure changes occur due to the heartbeat. The sensors measure the changes to the electric
skin resistance caused by it. These values are then used to create an average and are displayed on the
screen of the console as a heart rate.
Note:
For some people, the skin resistance change caused by the heart rate is so minimal that the
measurements do not allow for usable values. Strong callus or sweat on the hands may also impair a
correct measurement. In such cases, the heart rate will not be shown at all or only incorrectly.
If the measurement is incorrect or not taken at all, please check if it happens to only one person
or to several people. If the pulse display only does not work in a single case, the equipment is not
defective. In this case, we recommend using a chest strap to achieve a permanently correct heart
rate display..
CAUTION: Your training equipment is not a medical device. Different factors may influence the
accuracy of the heart rate display. The heart rate display only serves as a training aid.
Telemetric heart rate measuring
This recumbent ergometer is already equipped with a heart rate receiver as standard. Using a chest
strap makes it possible for you to have a wireless heart rate measuring. This optimal and ECG-precise
type of measuring reads the heart rate directly from the skin through a transmitting chest strap. The
chest strap then sends the impulse to the receiver integrated in the console.
Positioning the chest strap and moistening the electrodes:
Place the belt directly below the chest, while the transmitter should be placed on the middle of the
chest. The chest strap should sit comfortably, but not too loose. If the belt is too loose, the contact to
the electrodes may be disrupted or the belt may slip der Brustmitte liegewhile exercising. The trans-
mitter turns on automatically once it is put on. In order to allow for a precise measuring, you should
moisten the rubber electrodes. This is best done with a special chest strap contact gel, which is also
used for ultrasound scans.
Note:
If you have not been active in doing sports for a longer period of time, you should first go to your
physician in order to discuss your training with them. You should also contact your physician in
advance in the event of heart problems, high/low blood pressure and obesity.
Training with heart rate orientation
Heart rate orientation guarantees an extremely effective and healthy training. Through your age
and the following table, you can quickly and easily read and determine the optimal pulse for your
training. An acoustic alarm will sound if your heart rate exceeds the set target heart rate. Which target
heart rate is important for which training goal can be found out in the following.
