Activation of the device
If you activate the device, a signal is emitted during the
segment test.
Presetting
A short signal is emitted, if you reach a presetting like
time, distance and KJoule/kcal.
Exceeding of maximum pulse
If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat,
two short signals are emitted for the time of exceedance.
The calculations of the average values refer to training
units in the past until a reset or the sleep mode.

Always grab the contact faces with both hands.

• Avoid jerky grasping.
• Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and rubbing

After inserting the batteries, and in disorders or false readings
press the “” button for longer (Reset).
Training Instructions
Sports medicine and training science use cycle ergometry,
among other things, for the examination of the functional capability of heart, circulation and respiratory system.
You can find out whether or not you have achieved the desired
effect from your training after several weeks using the following
method:
1. You manage a particular endurance performance with less
heart / circulation performance than previously
2. You sustain a particular endurance performance with the
same heart / circulation performance over a longer period.
3. You recover more quickly than previously after a particular
heart / circulation performance.

Guide values for the endurance training
Maximum pulse: maximum strain means the reaching of the
individual maximum pulse. The maximum achievable heart rate
is dependant on age.
Here, the following empirical formula applies: the maximum
heart rate per minute corresponds to 220 heart beats minus age
in years.
Example: age 50 years -> 220 – 50 = 170 pulse / min.
Load Intensity
Load pulse: the optimum intensity of load is reached at 65–75%
(see also diagram) of the maximum pulse. This value changes
depending on age.
It is recommended that you perform approx. 5 minutes of exercises before and after every training unit, in order to warm up
and cool down. There should be a training-free day between
each two consecutive training units, if you prefer training sessions of 20-30 minutes 3 times a week later on in your training.
Otherwise, there is no reason why you should not train daily.
