Your `Target Heart Rate Zone' is a percentage of your maximum heart rate. Target Zones
will vary for each individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and per-
sonal fitness goals. The American Heart Association recommends working-out at a `Target
Heart Rate Zone' of between 60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate. See the chart
below for convenient reference. Example for a 42-year old user: find age along the bot-
tom of the chart (round to 40), follow age column up to the target zone bar. Results: 60%
of maximum Heart Rate = 108 Beats Per Minute, 75% of maximum Heart Rate = 135 Beat
Per Minute.

Feedback
Your Horizon Fitness elliptical trainer offers two heart rate feedback options. You may
choose to use the heart rate handlebars, or the chest transmitter for a hands free work-
out.
Heart Rate Handlebar
Place the palm of your hands directly on the heart rate handlebars. Both hands must grip
the bars for your heart rate to register. When griping the handlebars, do not grip tight-
ly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Try to maintain moderate
pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars. It is recommended that you hold
the handlebars only long enough the see your heart rate readout on the console. You
may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the handlebars.
Telemetric Chest Transmitter
Prior to wearing the chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes
with water. Center the chest strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly over
your stermum, with the Horizon Fitness logo facing out
Note:
The chest strap must be
tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest
strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive an erratic or inconsistent
heart rate readout.
If you have any problems with the heart rate function please refer to pages 16 & 17 in
the troubleshooting section.
Warning!
The heart rate function is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy
of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid.
