Weight loss
The important factor here is the amount of effort you
put in. The harder and longer you work the more
calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if
you were training to improve your fitness, the
difference is the goal.
Heart rate
Pulse rate measurement
(hand pulse sensors)
The pulse rate is measured by sensors in the
handlebars when the user is touching both sensors at
the same time. Accurate pulse measurement requires
that the skin is slightly moist and constantly touching
the hand pulse sensors. If the skin is too dry or too
moist, the pulse rate measurement will become less
accurate.
NOTE
• Do not use the hand pulse sensors in
combination with a heart rate chest
belt.
• If you set a heart rate limit for your workout,
an alarm will sound when it is exceeded.
Heart rate measurement
(heart rate chest belt)
The most accurate heart rate measurement is
achieved with a heart rate chest belt. The heart rate is
measured by a heart rate receiver in combination with
a heart rate transmitter belt. Accurate heart
measurement requires that the electrodes on the
transmitter belt are slight moist and constantly
touching the skin. If the electrodes are too dry or too
moist, the heart rate measurement will become less
accurate.
WARNING
• If you have a pacemaker, consult a
physician before using a heartrate chest
belt.
CAUTION
• If there are several heart rate
measurement devices next to each
other, make sure that the distance
between them is at least 1.5 metres.
• If there is only one heart rate receiver and
several heart rate transmitters, make sure
that only one person with a transmitter is
within transmission range.

E
• Do not use a heart rate chest belt in
combination with the handpulse sensors.
• Always wear the heart rate chest belt
under your clothes directly in contact with
your skin. Do not wear the heart rate chest
belt above your clothes. If you wear the
heart rate chest belt above your clothes,
there will be no signal.
