WARNING
Your training equipment is not a medical device. The heart rate measurement of this equipment
may be inaccurate. Various factors can affect the accuracy of the heart rate measurement. The
heart rate measurement serves only as a training aid.
The HEART RATE Programmes are designed to keep your heart rate/pulse at the constant level you
have selected. Every 30 seconds the console will check your heart rate/pulse against what you have
selected and will automatically adjust the Resistance Levels accordingly. All Heart Rate Programmes
require a heart rate signal either via a compatible international standard 5 kHz bandwidth Chest Band
or by holding the Hand Pulse Sensors. These three % HEART RATE Programmes work in conjunction
with your selected User and the User Data you have input, therefore it is important that you select
the correct User and have input the correct User Data before you begin any of the the HEART RATE
Programme.
L
NOTICE
During your workout you cannot adjust the Resistance Levels.

CAUTION
While increasing your heart rate is an important part of exercise, it is also important that your
heart rate is not too high. To be safe we suggest that you start your workouts at the 55% and
increase your heart rate % as your fitness improves. The recommended absolute Maximum
