HOW TO USE HEART RATE PROGRAMS

CAUTION: If you have heart prob- lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the heart rate programs. If you are taking medication regu- larly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.

Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sen- sor (see page 21) to use a heart rate program.

1 Put on the chest pulse sensor.

See the instructions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.

2 Insert the key fully into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 11.

3 Select a heart rate program.

When the key is inserted, the

manual mode

will be selected. To select a heart rate pro- gram, press the

Program button repeatedly until one of the two heart rate program indicators lights.

The two profiles on the left side of the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. The numbers above the profiles represent percentages of your estimated maxi- mum heart rate. Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 – 30 = 190). If you are 30 years old, a target heart rate setting of 50% is equal to 95 beats per minute (50% of 190 is 95).
