Basic Heart Rate Control

This program computes your target heart rate based on the calculation, 60% of 220 minus your age. The equipment adjusts resistance and/or incline to maintain your target heart rate while you work out.

When a heart rate signal is not received, a heart shape with a question mark appears in the upper text display. Recheck your hand grip on the handheld sensors or the placement of your chest strap.

Note: For the unit to detect your heart rate, you must grip the handheld heart rate sensors or wear a chest strap while exercising. In the presence of both handheld and wireless data, the handheld data takes precedence and displays.

Hill Climb

This preset program simulates hill climbing. The program is fixed at 30 minutes on most equipment, and the resistance is predetermined. Any increase or decrease made in one program segment will increase or decrease all remaining portions by the same amount.
