USING YOUR THR ZONE 1 & 2 PROGRAMS

The THR zone program is designed to keep the user at an optimum exercise level, while adjusting the resistance levels to keep the user at a target heart rate. To choose the THR zone program, follow these instructions.

1.Choose the THR zone program by pressing the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. Press ‘Enter’.

2.Determine your target THR zone by using the heart rate chart (reference target heart rate THR zone chart in table of contents). Choose your target pulse zone by pressing the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. Your target THR zone should be set at a number that you will be able to exercise throughout the majority of your workout.

3.The THR zone program will have a 5 minute warm-up period before it will start adjusting the resist- ance levels to get you to your target pulse zone.

4.After the 5 minute warm-up period, the resistance levels will increase gradually to get the user to the selected target THR zone. Once the user is at the target pulse zone; plus or minus 5 beats, the resistance level will remain at the current resistance level.

5.If the actual heart rate of the user is above the target THR zone, the resistance levels will gradually begin decreasing to keep the user in the target pulse zone. If the user is more than 25 beats above the target THR zone, the console will shut down for safety purposes.

6.The last 5 minutes of the program will be dedicated to a cool-down period. At this time, the program will gradually decrease the resistance level to give the user a smooth and easy cool down.

Note: The chest strap is required to use the Target THR zone Program
