The calculation used for the heart rate target zone is: (220 minus your age) multiplied by a percent.

For example:

Low range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 55%

High range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 85% Refer to Table 1 in Using SmartRate.

Heart Rate Target Zones

After you put on the chest strap, face the display console for a few seconds. This allows the receiver in the console to recognize the signal from the chest strap.

If Hr appears in the display, the EFX is detecting a signal, but has not yet determined your heart rate. Make sure the chest strap is positioned properly around your chest and against your skin.

If you prefer to use the touch-sensitive handrail grips on the EFX5.35 or EFX5.33, grasp both grips and wait five to ten seconds. Make sure both hands are moist.

Note: When a signal is detected, the heart rate icon flashes and a number appears in the HEART RATE display and indicates your heart rate.

Always face forward on the EFX and use the stationary handrail for balance. Keep upper body movement to a minimum.
