CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS POUR TOUT USAGE ULTÉRIEUR.

The console is equipped with a wireless heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes, pressed against the skin, transfer heart rate signals from the user to the console. The electrodes are inside the chest strap (A) that the user wears during the workout. The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart rate reading when the electrodes are in direct contact with bare skin. However it functions properly through a thin layer of wet clothing. The electrodes are two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, and must remain wet to accurately transmit the electrical impulses of the heart back to the receiver. To use, first moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the strap as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal breathing. Electrodes must be wet to work properly. If it becomes necessary to re-moisten, grasp the center of the strap, pull it away from your chest to expose the electrodes, and moisten. See diagram below for correct positioning of the strap.
Note: Using the wireless heart rate telemetry chest strap will provide more accurate heart rate readings than the hand pulse sensors.
Note: To ensure the highest performance, use the wireless chest strap that was provided with the product.
A A
When using Contact Heart Rate make certain to grasp sensors firmly and keep hands still. If heart rate seems substantially higher or lower than expected, remove hands from sensors until heart rate disappears. Dry hands and grasp sensors again until heart rate seems accurate. If this does not work you may need to slow the machine to get an accurate reading. We recommend, for safety and accurate heart rate readings, that the user stand on the side rails when attempting to monitor heart rate with contact electrodes.
Note: The contact heart rate system may be less or more accurate with different individuals.

Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor the intensity of a workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the LIFE FITNESS Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to exercise.
Zone Training identifies an exerciser’s ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness. The zone is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), and its value depends on the workout. The maximal heart rate formula is defined by the American College of Sports Medicine’s “Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription”, 8th Edition, 2009. HRmax equals to 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age.
HR MAX = 206.9 - (0.67 *age)
The LIFE FITNESS products feature these exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the benefits of Heart Rate Zone Training+ exercise:
• FAT BURN • CARDIO • HEART RATE HILL • HEART RATE INTERVAL • EXTREME HEART RATE
Note: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals and designing a workout program.
The Heart Rate Training workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the telemetry heart rate chest strap, or grip the contact heart rate sensors, to enable the on-board computer to monitor the heart rate during a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the incline or level to maintain the target heart rate based on the actual heart rate.
