HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 15.
Select a heart rate program.
To select a heart
rate program,
press one of the
three Heart Rate
buttons. When a
Heart Rate button
is pressed, the indicator on the button will light.
If the you select
the first heart
rate program, a
pulse symbol will
appear in the matrix.
If you select the
second or third
heart rate program, a profile of
the first several
target heart rate
settings of the program will appear in the matrix.
Enter a target heart rate setting.
If the first heart rate program is selected, the
target heart rate setting for the program will flash
in the Pulse display. If desired, press the increase
and decrease buttons below the Pulse display to
change the target heart rate setting (see EXER-
CISE INTENSITY on page 22). Note: The same
target heart rate setting will be programmed for all
segments.
If the second or third heart rate program is selected, the maximum target heart rate setting of
the program will flash in the Pulse display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons
below the Pulse display to change the maximum
target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTEN-
SITY on page 22). Note: If you change the maximum target heart rate setting, the intensity level of
the entire program will change.
Put on the chest pulse sensor or hold the
handgrip pulse sensor.
To use a heart rate program, you must wear the
chest pulse sensor (see page 11) or use the
handgrip pulse sensor. Note: If you wear the
chest pulse sensor and hold the handgrip
pulse sensor at the same time, the console
will not display your heart rate accurately.
If you use the handgrip pulse sensor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips continuously during
the program; however, you should hold the handgrips frequently for the program to operate properly. Each time you hold the handgrips, keep
your hands on the metal contacts for at least
30 seconds. Note: When you are not holding the
handgrips, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Pulse
display instead of your heart rate.
Press the Start button to start the program.
The first heart rate program—This program is
divided into 100 one-minute segments. The same
target heart rate setting is programmed for all
segments. Note: For a shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different program before the program ends.
The second and third heart rate programs—
These programs are divided into 30 one-minute
segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two
or more consecutive segments.
The target heart
rate setting for the
first segment will
be shown in the
flashing Current
Segment column of
the matrix. The target heart rate settings for the next several segments will be shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first segment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a series of tones will sound, and
all target heart rate
settings will move one column to the left.
The target heart rate setting for the second segment will
then be shown in the flashing Current Segment
column.
