WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF

Your choice shows that you really want to invest in your well-being
and condition; it also shows you really value high quality and style.
With Tunturi Fitness Equipment, you’ve chosen a high-quality, safe and
motivating product as your training partner.
This guide is an essential part of your exercise equipment. Start
familiarising yourself with the Tunturi T.I.E. interface by carefully
reading this manual. It offers the information you need for both the
use and maintenance of your equipment. This manual is well worth
keeping, as you may need these instructions later on.

1. INSTALLATION ::
Push the T.I.E. interface module carefully into place at the top of
the handlebar support tube. The loose screws hanging from the metal
fastening plate on the bottom of the T.I.E. module must enter the holes
at the top end of the handlebar. Make sure that the module is correctly in
place and tighten the fastening screws.
1.1 TURNING THE USER INTERFACE ON AND OFF
The user interface turns itself on when the device is connected to the
mains current. When the user interface has not been used for fi ve minutes
(no heart-rate registered, no keys pressed, no pedalling), it automatically
switches itself to energy-saver state. Alpha 150 is returned to its active
state by pressing any key, starting to pedal or sending heart-rate signals
to the unit. When you restart, Alpha 150 automatically starts from Mode
function.
:: Protect Alpha 150 from excess sunlight, because that may fade
the interface box and surface membrane colours. Please also be
careful not to allow Alpha 150 to come into contact with
water. A sharp blow may damage the interface.

2. PULSE MEASUREMENT ::
You can buy the ear sensor needed for pulse measurement from your
Tunturi dealer or importer as an accessory.
3. USER INTERFACE ::
Measure your pulse as follows:
1. Open the cover at the back of Alpha 150 and pushing the ear
sensor connector into the interface connector. Lead the ear sensor
wire out through the hole between the cover and the box, and
close the cover.
2. Attach the ear sensor to the earlobe.
3. Attach the sensor wire to your shirt with the clip provided. This
prevents the sensor and wire from moving.
If there are problems in pulse measurement:
:: Check how the sensor works while not pedalling.
:: A disturbance may be caused by the physiological properties of the
earlobe. Try measuring on the inside surface of the ear or on
the tip of your fi nger.
:: Rub the earlobe with your fi ngers to quicken circulation.
:: If pulse values rise above 150 beats/min., earlobe measurement
may be affected by the faster circulation.
:: Sometimes a strong light source in the immediate vicinity of
the user may cause disturbances.
Please clean the ear sensor after use with a damp cloth. Do not use
solvents.
NOTE! Always detach the ear sensor connector from the user interface
when you use the heart-rate belt. The ear sensor disturbs heart-rate
measurement.
