user’s performance.
O
WORKOUT PROFILE window: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of intensity in a

or
EXTREME HEART RATE
workout, which
requires the use of a Polar

flashing heart shape to request the user’s heart rate signal. If the console does not detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER dis-
plays the prompt “NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON SENSORS OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP". If the console does not
receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automatically is converted to a
MANUAL
program.
