SOFT TRAC®SYSTEM
The Soft Trac®system is the Stepper’s foot comfort and step absorption system consisting of a yielding, durable rubber pad covering both foot pedals. This system is designed to protect ankles, knees, joints, and back while reducing numbness in toes and feet and providing a comfortable stepping surface. Whether you place your feet at the front, middle, or rear of the pedals you will enjoy the benefits of the Soft Trac®system.
HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED
The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of your STAR TRAC E-ST STEPPER.
n Step at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficient to achieve a good cardio workout.
n Try different stepping rhythms. In manual operation, vary your stepping speed from slow to fast, then back to slow. As you
become more comfortable with your Stepper, try stepping faster, varying the difficulty LEVEL, or using the preset programs.
n Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate changes in difficulty. When you use the preset programs, the display shows
changes in difficulty as tall or short columns.
VIEWING WORKOUT DATA DURING A PROGRAM

HEART RATE MONITORING
18 STAR TRAC E-ST STEPPER OWNERS MANUAL
Heart rate monitoring allows you to determine is easy with the STAR TRAC E-ST STEPPER. You may use a heart rate strap, or you can simply grasp the silver contact heart rate grips. Your goal will be to keep your exercise heart rate between 60 and 90 percent of the theoretical maximum for your age, as shown in the accompanying Target Heart Rate table.
NOTE: The Heart Rate monitor is not a medical test, nor is it designed as a medical test. It is simply a guide to target heart rate train­ing. Please consult with your physician prior to engaging in any strenuous physical activity.
NOTE: If both the heart rate grips and a heart rate strap are being used, the heart rate grips will override and be displayed in the HR window.
IMPORTANT: The manufacturer does not warrant the heart rate system performance on this product, as the heart rate system per­formance varies, based on a user's physiology, fitness level, age, method of use and other factors. Furthermore, the heart rate system is not for medical use.
if your workout is too challenging or not challenging enough. Monitoring your heart rate
CONTACT HEART RATE MONITORING
You may use the heart rate contact grips to automatically check your heart rate while stepping. Just follow these steps.
1. Grasp the stainless steel heart rate contact grips; you do not have to squeeze tightly.
n When the heart rate contact grips are grasped, the will display and an audible “beep” will sound to indicate that a heart
rate has been detected.
2. It may take from 30 to 60 seconds for the heart rate system to acquire and display your heart rate.
3. When your heart rate has been acquired, the indicator and your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) display in the HEART
RATE field of the Information Window.
4. Release the Heart Rate grips if you wish to remove your heart rate reading from the display.
CHEST STRAP HEART RATE MONITORING
You may use the heart rate strap to automatically check your heart rate. Just follow these steps:
1. Before beginning your workout, or during a pause, moisten the back of the transmitter on the heart rate strap. Place the strap
snugly around your chest with the transmitter resting directly over your sternum.
2. When your heart rate has been acquired, the indicator and your heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) display in the HEART
RATE field of the Information Window.
3. Remove the heart rate strap if you wish to remove your heart rate reading from the display.
NOTE: The performance of the transmitter may be affected by body types, body oils, metal in clothing, and outside electrical interfer­ence. Always be sure that the transmitter and skin are in good contact. Avoid operating other electrical equipment near your Stepper when you use the heart rate strap.

HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAMS
TRAINING TOOLS offers both an Interval Heart Rate Control program and a Constant Heart Rate Control program, as well as a Fitness Test.
NOTE: For best results, use a heart rate strap. If user is wearing a heart rate strap, the Stepper will automatically use the data from the heart rate strap. Contact heart rate grips may not give an accurate heart rate.
To operate the INTERVAL HEART RATE Control program:
This heart rate feature is designed to gradually elevate your heart rate to the upper end of your selected training range, then gradually decrease your heart rate to the lower end of your selected training range by dynamically controlling the difficulty level. During the work­out, this cycle will repeat several times until the time goal is complete, creating an interval training effect that is customized to the user’s desired heart rate training range.
During program setup, there must be at least an 20 BPM difference between the lower heart rate limit and upper heart rate limit to ensure an interval workout.
By including interval exercise in your regular aerobic program, greater effects are noticed. Your heart and muscles will adapt to the increases in demand by utilizing stored calories for energy more effectively. Interval Heart Rate Control may potentially result in more calories expended. It will strengthen the heart, provide stress relief and variety to a workout. This program is more effective in training the body to remove excess lactic acid from the muscles.
