Exercising with Interval Training Set (Int On, E1-E5)

In this mode you can also use the functions in “Exercise recording mode” section.

The Interval Trainer automatically guides you through your exercise. In order to hear the activity sounds when the phase starts and stops make sure the activity sound is on. If you have turned the countdown timer of the phase off, you have to stop the phase manually by pressing and holding OK button. When the stopwatch starts running indicates that Interval Trainer is on. As the interval training exercise ends the receiver automatically starts a BasicUse exercise, which is recorded to the same file as your interval training exercise.
