program and return to Program Mode.
The console will ch
eck the user’s heart rate every 40 seconds and adjust the resistance level to
maintain the heart rate goal. The message display will show messages to indicate your program
progress:
If your heart rate is within 5bpm to the target heart rate, the resistance will stay the same and
message display will show “IN HR TARGET” for 3 seconds, then it will toggle back to workout
information. If your heart rate is 5bpm less than target heart rate, the resistance will increase.
If your heart rate is 5bpm more than target heart rate, the resistance will decrease. If the current
resistance is already at level 1, then message display will show “STRIDE SLOWER” for 3 seconds.
Note: A wireless heart rate monitoring device must be used for the program to work. It is also
important to consult your physician before performing any Heart Rate based training program.
There are 5 Heart Rate Control programs: % Target Heart Rate, HR 80% Cardio, HR 65% Fat Burn,
HR Hill 65%

maximum heart rate that you would like to maintain during your exercise session.
The range of percentages is 50% to 85%. (See section titled MONITORING
YOUR HEART RATE for more information)
HR 80% Cardio:
Maintains your target heart rate at 80% of max heart rate by
automatically adjusting the tension levels to maintain that percentage. This is a
good program for people who want to have a high intensity, cardiovascular
workout.
HR 65% Fat Burn:
Maintains
one’s target heart rate at 65% of max heart rate by
automatically adjusting the tension levels to maintain that percentage. This is a
good program for people who want a fat burning workout.
HR Hill 65%-75%-85%:
Simulates hill training by changing the target heart rate
thru three different percentages during the workout. The changes will occur as
follows: 65% - 75% - 85% - 75% - 65% -75% - 85% etc. Each percentage will be
held for three minutes before changing to the next percentage.
HR Interval:
This program alternates between 65% and 85% of your max heart
rate. This program provides an excellent fat burning and cardiovascular workout.
Each percentage will be held for four minutes before alternating to the next
