TARGET HEART RATE

Getting Started

The Target Heart Rate program is designed to keep your training at your chosen heart rate level. The console computer will adjust the resistance level automatically to ensure that you reach and maintain the heart rate goal you have set.

A HEART RATE MONITORING DEVICE (HAND GRIPS, CHEST STRAP) MUST BE USED FOR THIS PROGRAM TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. FOR BEST RESULTS, USING A CHEST STRAP IS RECOMMENDED.

IMPORTANT: It is dangerous to exceed 95% of your maximum heart rate while you are exercising. Please consult your physician before performing any Heart Rate based train- ing program.

Beginning the Program

During the idle mode, the dot matrix window displays “DB”. To begin this program, press the “PROGRAMS” key until the “Target HR” program LED indicator is lit.

When the “Target HR” LED indicator is lit, it indicates you are about to select the Target Heart Rate program:

Press the “START” key to begin the Target Heart Rate program workout with the current default values.

Or you may press the “ENTER” key to start the program setup mode. The dot matrix and data displays will take you through the program setup mode step by step.
