OWNER'S MANUAL • F330•E340
You should start slowly at a low pedalling speed
and low resistance, because for an overweight
person strenuous exercise may subject the heart
and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fi tness
improves, resistance and pedalling speed can be
increased gradually. Exercise effi ciency can be
measured by monitoring the pulse. The pulse
meter helps you monitor your pulse easily during
exercise, and thus to ensure that the exercise is
suffi ciently effective but not over-strenuous.
F 330 comes with exercise gear that makes your
training options really versatile. The enclosed
guidebook provides tips for exercising with the
equipment.
METER
NOTE! Protect the meter from direct sunlight, as
it may damage the liquid crystal display. Protect
the meter from water and avoid severe impacts, as
these may also damage the meter. Never lean on
the meter!
The meter switches on automatically when you
start pedalling or press any key on the meter,
and switches off when you have not pedalled or
pressed a key for about 4 minutes. The readings
accumulated during your workout will be
automatically reset when the meter is switched
off. You can also reset the readings by pressing the
RESET key.
METER KEYS
SET: Select the function to be preset.
RESET: Reset all the displays to zero.
+ : Press to increase the preset values of TIME, KM
/MILES (DISTANCE), KCAL or PUL SE.
- : Press to reduce the preset values of TIME, KM /
MILES (DISTANCE), KCAL or PULSE.
DISPLAYS
SPEED
Displays the current speed in MPH, km/h, or RPM
(0-99)
KCAL
Displays an estimate of kilocalories consumed (0-
999.9). This is an approximate calculation.
PULSE
Displays the pulse value during exercise (40-
220 bpm). The heart symbol beside the reading
fl ashes in time with the user’s heartbeat. The pulse
value will start fl ashing when the pulse limits are
exceeded.
NOTE! Pulse is measured by sensors in the
handlebars. Pulse is measured when the user
of F 330 / E 340 is touching both sensors
simultaneously. Reliable pulse measurement
requires that the skin is constantly touching the
sensors and that the skin is slightly moist. Too dry
or too moist skin weakens the reliability of hand
pulse measurement.
NOTE! The E 340 meter has a heart rate receiver
compatible with Polar equipment, so you can also
use Polar uncoded heart rate belts for heart rate
measurement.
When selecting training attire, please note
that some fi bers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement.
Please note that a mobile phone, television and
other electrical appliances form an electro-magnetic
fi eld around them which will cause problems in
heart rate measurement.
KM / MILES (DISTANCE)
Displays the distance traveled in miles or in
kilometers (0-99.9).
TIME
Displays the elapsed time of the exercise session
(00:00-99:59). If TIME is not preset, it will count
up in one-second increment.
WATT (E 340 METER)
Shows the effort in watts (0-995). Exercising at
the correct level is important, as is exercising at
the correct pulse level. If you exercise at too low
an effort level for your fi tness level, you will not
necessarily achieve the desired results even if you
exercise regularly. With this function you can easily
monitor your effort level during workout.
SELECTING SPEED AND
UNIT OF DISTANCE
You can select the unit to be displayed on the
meter by the switch on the bottom of the battery
casing. Open the lid of the battery casing at the
back of the meter housing. There are two switches
on the bottom of the battery casing - one for
selecting either kilometers or miles as the unit
of distance, and the other for selecting either
pedalling revolutions per minute or km/h or mph.
Change the position of the switch and push the lid
of the battery casing back into place. Press RESET to
confi rm.
