HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR

The chest pulse sensor has two components: a cheststrap and a sensor unit (see the drawing below). Insertthe tab on one end of the chest strap into one end ofthe sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing. Pressthe end of the sensor unit under the buckle on thechest strap. The tab should be flush with the front ofthe sensor unit.

Next, wrap thechest pulse sen-sor around yourchest and attachthe other end ofthe chest strap tothe sensor unit.Adjust the lengthof the chest strap,if necessary. Thechest pulse sensor should be under your clothes, tightagainst your skin, and as high under the pectoral mus-cles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that thelogo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.

Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inchesand locate the two electrode areas on the inner side(the electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges).Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lenssolution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensorunit to a position against your chest.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE

• Dry the chest pulse sensor after each use. Thechest pulse sensor is activated when you wet theelectrode areas and put on the chest pulse sensor;

the chest pulse sensor shuts off when it is removedand the electrode areas are dried. If the chest pulsesensor is not dried after each use, the battery maybe drained prematurely.

• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bagor other container that may trap moisture.

• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct sun-light for extended periods of time or to temperaturesabove 122° F (50° C) or below 14° F (-10° C).

• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unitwhen using or storing the chest pulse sensor.

• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—neveruse alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. Hand washand air dry the chest pulse sensor.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

If the chest pulse sensor does not function prop-erly, try the steps below.

• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sen-sor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulsesensor does not function when positioned asdescribed, move it slightly lower or higher.

• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lenssolution to wet the two electrode areas on the sen-sor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear untilyou begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.

• Position yourself near the console. For the consoleto display heart rate readings, the user must bewithin armʼs length of the console.

• The chest pulse sensor is designed to work withpeople who have normal heart rhythms. Heart ratereading problems may be caused by medical condi-tions such as premature ventricular contractions(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.

• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can beaffected by magnetic interference caused by highpower lines or other sources. If it is suspected thatthis is a problem, try relocating the elliptical strider.

Watts workout 2 or 3 is divided into 40 one-minute segments. One resistance level and onetarget watts level are programmed for each seg-ment. Note: The same resistance level and/ortarget watts level may be programmed for consec-utive segments.

The workout profile will show your progress (seethe drawing at the left). The flashing segment ofthe profile represents the current segment of theworkout. The height of the flashing segment indi-cates the resistance level for the current segment.

As you exercise, you will be prompted to pedal ata target speed. When an upward arrow or theword FASTER appears in the display, increaseyour speed. When a downward arrow or the wordSLOWER appears, decrease your speed. Whenno arrow appears or the words ON TARGETappear, maintain your current speed.

IMPORTANT: The target speed is intended onlyto provide motivation. Your actual speed maybe slower than the target speed. Make sure topedal at a speed that is comfortable for you.

When the first segment of the workout ends, theresistance level and the target speed for the sec-ond segment will appear in the display for a fewseconds to alert you. The next segment of the pro-file will begin to flash, and the pedals willautomatically adjust to the resistance level for thenext segment.

If the resistance level for the current segment istoo high or too low, you can manually override thesetting by turning the resistance dial. IMPOR-TANT: When the current segment of theworkout ends, the pedals will automaticallyadjust to the resistance level for the next seg-ment.

To stop a workout at any time, stop pedaling. Atone will sound and the time will begin to flash inthe display. To restart the workout, simply resumepedaling.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exerciseprogram. For detailed exercise information, obtain areputable book or consult your physician. Remember,proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential forsuccessful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-sity is the key to achieving results. You can use yourheart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.The chart below shows recommended heart rates forfat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at thebottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-est ten years). The three numbers listed above yourage define your “training zone.” The lowest number isthe heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is theheart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highestnumber is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period oftime. During the first few minutes of exercise, yourbody uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only afterthe first few minutes of exercise does your body beginto use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is toburn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until yourheart rate is near the lowest number in your trainingzone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with yourheart rate near the middle number in your trainingzone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, you must perform aerobicexercise, which is activity that requires large amountsof oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobicexercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise untilyour heart rate is near the highest number in yourtraining zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretchingand light exercise. A warm-up increases your bodytemperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparationfor exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (Duringthe first few weeks of your exercise program, do notkeep your heart rate in your training zone for longerthan 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as youexercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes ofstretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of yourmuscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete threeworkouts each week, with at least one day of restbetween workouts. After a few months of regular exer-cise, you may complete up to five workouts eachweek, if desired. Remember, the key to success is tomake exercise a regular and enjoyable part of youreveryday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning thisor any exercise program, consult your physi-cian. This is especially important for personsover age 35 or persons with pre-existinghealth problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.Various factors may affect the accuracy ofheart rate readings. The pulse sensor isintended only as an exercise aid in determin-ing heart rate trends in general.
