up, and insert to the direction of
arrow.

Isn't the data card reversed?

ERROR or irregular display ap-
pears when you insert the data
card.

Refer to P.42~43 and specify the
program and conditions correctly.

Didn't you insert the card too
quickly?

Insert the card slowly.

Is the pulse sensor attached cor-
rectly to your earlobe?

The pulse rate is not displayed, re-
maining "0".

Insert the sensor plug securely into
the sensor jack, and check the
pulse sensor function according to
page 11. If the sensor cable proves
to be broken, replace the pulse
sensor  (part #1655210).

Attach the sensor correctly to your
earlobe and take care not to swing
the sensor or sensor cable during
the exercise. If the sensor cable
proves to be damaged, replace the
whole pulse sensor with a new one.

Is the pulse sensor correctly at-
tached to your earlobe?

Is the sensor plug completely in-
serted into the sensor jack?

Problems noted in the following chart are not disorders. Prior to seeking
repair, read the contents of the entire chart first.

The pulse rate increases abnor-
mally.

Isn't the sensor cable damaged?

Handling

For longer use of the Ergociser™ EC-1600, observe the following
precautions.

• Do not disassemble the main and control units. In case of prob-

lems contact your dealer where the unit was purchased.

• Avoid using the Ergociser™ EC-1600 in a high temperatures or in

high humidity. Also, do not splash the unit with water.

• Handle the pulse sensor carefully. If strongly pulled out the cable

may become disconnected.

• When the EC-1600 is not in use, shut the power switch OFF and

disconnect the power cord from the outlet.

• Do not wipe the main unit with organic solvents such as thinner,

kerosine, gasoline and alcohol. When dirty, wipe the unit with a
cloth soaked in a neutral detergent, then wipe well with a dry
cloth.

• Do not place the EC-1600 in direct sun light.

seems incorrect.

Did you select the correct fitness
level evaluation table?

Check the selector switch on the
back panel of the control unit. (see
page 8~9)

Buzzer keeps sounding.

Isn't the upper pulse limit alarm
ringing due to the excess of your
pulse rate during the exercise?

The program is suspended half-
way.

Isn't the pulse limit setting too low
due to an incorrect age input?
