HEART BEAT TARGET FREQUENCY
The heart beat frequency recommended by leading sport
medicine specialists is 60 to 80 % of your maximum achiev-
able heart frequency during exercise. This range is calcu-
lated by reference to your age and the exercise duration.
As a rule of thumb, the older you are, the lower the target
range will be.
HAND PULSE SENSORS & HEART RATE MONITOR
Measuring your pulse
There are two ways to measure your pulse:
• using a standard pulse rate transmitter, or
• with the two hand sensors on the handlebar
If you have a pacemaker, note that you must not use the
pulse rate transmitter, or consult your doctor for advice.
Measuring your pulse with the pulse rate transmitter I
f
you want to monitor your pulse permanently, use a pulse
rate transmitter such as a chest belt. The integrated heart
rate receiver is compatible with most standard pulse rate
transmitters that transmit at a frequency of 5.3 kHz. Our
service team will be pleased to help you if you have any
questions.
Your pulse is displayed on the computer display.
If the measured pulse is not shown, this may be due to
one of the following reasons:
• Skin/contact areas too dry (moisten or use ECG gel)
• Transmitter too cold
• Chest strap has slipped
• Radio interference (e.g. mobile phone, cycle compu-
ter, high voltage lines)
• Transmitter battery discharged
Measuring your pulse with the hand sensors
• While exercising, place both hands on the hand sen-
sors on the handlebar and wait for a short while until
your pulse is displayed. You can release the sensors if
you want to continue exercising with the handlebars.
• Place your hands back on the hand sensors if you
want to read your pulse again.
Measuring your recovery pulse
You can measure your recovery pulse after exercising. If
you do this for an extended period of time, you will be able
to track your performance improvements due to exercising
with your home trainer.
• After exercising, press the RECOVERY key and take
hold of the hand sensors, if you are not using a pulse
measuring sensor. Stand still. The computer will meas-
ure your pulse for one minute and calculate a fitness
grade between F1 ("Very good") and F6 ("Very poor")
based on this. The lower the fitness grade, the better
your condition and recovery.
Warning:
The heart beat measurement can be impaired by
movement, friction and sweat. This value should thus not
be used for medical applications or evaluations, but simply
as an orientation value.
Special impediments such as use of a pacemaker or other
medical implants must be discussed with your doctor prior
to using the sensors.
