BASIC INFORMATION
The

Laps

The Elliptical has a built in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the Contact Heart Rate
Sensors on the stationary handle bars or wearing the chest strap transmitter will start the heart icon
blinking (this may take a few seconds). The Pulse Window will display your heart rate in beats per
minute and the HR bar graph will show your current % in relation to projected heart rate maximum.
The chest strap is a more accurate and reliable method of heart rate reading. The hand pulse sensors
are subject to false readings depending on user physiology and workout habits including how one
grips the sensors or how sweaty their hands are.
The
Stop
button actually has several functions.
Pressing the
Stop
key once during a program will
Pause
the program for 5
minutes. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone or any of the many
things that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume
your workout during
Pause
just press the
Start
key. If the
Stop
button is
pressed twice during a workout the program will end and a
Workout
Summary
is displayed.
If the
Stop
key is held down for 3 seconds the console will perform a complete Reset. During data
entry for a program the
Stop
key performs a Previous Screen function. This allows you to go back one
step in the programming each time you press the Stop key.
There is an
Audio In Jack
(
) on the front of the console and built-in speakers. You may plug any
low-level audio source signal into this port. Audio sources include MP3, iPod, portable radio, CD player
or even a TV or computer audio signal. There is also a
Headphone Jack
(
)for private listening.
