Heart Rate Control Workout Programs
The Heart Rate Control programs let you set a heart rate goal for your workout. The program monitors your heart rate in beats
per minute (BPM) from the Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors on the machine or from a Heart Rate Monitor (HRM) chest
strap, and adjusts the incline during a workout to keep your heart rate in the selected zone.
Note:
The console must be able to read the heart rate information from the CHR sensors or HRM for the Heart Rate
Control program to work correctly.
The Target Heart Rate programs use your age and other User information to set the Heart Rate Zone values for your workout.
The console display then gives prompts for you to set up your workout:
1. Push the PROGRAMS button until the HEART HEALTH Category is selected.
2. Push the Increase(
) or Decrease(
) buttons to select the percentage of maximum heart rate: HEALTHY 55%, FAT BURN
65%, AEROBIC 75%, ANAEROBIC 85%.
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest,
become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated
or measured by the machine’s computer for reference purposes only. The heart rate displayed on the console is an
approximation and should be used for reference only.
