• Use select switch No.3 on the back

of the control unit to choose kilo-

grams or pounds as your unit of

body weight.

NO.3-OFF -------- kg

NO.3-ON ---------- lb

CAUTION: When oxygen uptake (VO2max) is estimated in the aerobic power measurement (physical fitness test) program, body weight in kg is used. If you mistakenly assume the unit for body, the figure given for oxy- gen uptake will be wrong by a wide margin.

Use the select switch No.4 on the back of the control unit to deter- mine the initial setting of the pitch sound for Aerobic Power Measure- ment program.

No.4 ON - Pitch sound initial setting is ON

No.4 OFF - Pitch sound initial setting is OFF

Remark: Even if the switch No.4 is set at OFF, you can activate the pitch sound by pressing the button on the control unit to light up the symbol in the

CAUTION: Insert the cable con- nector until it is firmly locked.

Insert the pulse sensor plug into the pulse sensor jack on the back of the control unit, and hang the sensor cable on the cable hook.

During training, use the sensor clip to take up slack in the cable and keep the cable from moving exces- sively.

When you are not using the pulse sensor, attach it to the sensor clip.

Attach the cable clip to your clothes to keep the cable from swinging around.

CAUTION: Handle the pulse sensor with care. The cable could break if strongly pulled.

Pulse sensor lenses need peri- odic cleaning to remove sweat and oil deposits from skin to work efficiently. Wipe lenses with soft dry cloth.
