The right display—The right
display will show the distance you have pedaled and
the approximate number of calories
you have burned. The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds, as shown by the indicators. The display will also show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used.
If you stop exercising for several seconds, a tone will sound and the console will pause.
Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometers. To determine which unit of measure-
ment is selected,
hold down the Start Program button for three seconds. An E (for English miles) or an M (for metric kilometers)
will appear in the matrix. To change the unit of mea- surement, press
the + button (this is also the button that selects resistance level 10). While an E or an M appears in the matrix, the left display will show the total numbers of hours that the elliptical crosstrainer has been used, and the right display will show the total number of miles pedaled. When you are fin- ished viewing this information, press the Start Program button again.
6 Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you wear the optional chest pulse sen- sor (see page 19) and hold the handgrip pulse sensor at the same time, the console may not display your heart rate accurately.
If there are thin sheets of plastic on the metal contacts on the hand-
grip pulse sen-Contacts sor, peel off
the plastic. To measure your
heart rate,
place your hands on the contacts; your palms must be resting on the contacts closest to you, and your fingers must be touching the other con- tacts. Avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is detected, the heart
rate indicator above the right display will light, dashes may appear in the dis- play, and then your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue holding the contacts for about 15 seconds. Note: If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are posi- tioned as described. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal con- tacts too tightly.
When you hold the pulse sensor, the right display will show your heart rate for about 15 seconds. If you continue to hold the pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate along with the distance you have pedaled and the number of calories you have burned.
When you are finished exercising, the console
7 will automatically turn off.
If the console buttons are not pressed and the pedals are not moved for a few minutes, the con- sole will automatically turn off.
