TARGET HEART RATE: Automatically adjusts resistance to maintain your target heart rate. Perfect for simulating the
intensity of your favorite sport or everyday activity. Time-based goal.
1) Select Target Heart Rate program and press ENTER.
2) Select TIME using
and press ENTER.
3) The HEART RATE window will flash showing the default target heart rate of 80 beats per minute. Select your target heart
rate (from the chart above) using
and press START to begin program.
HEART RATE TRAINING
The first step in knowing the right intensity for your training is to
find out your maximum heart rate (max HR = 220 – your age).
The age-based method provides an average statistical prediction
of your max HR and is a good method for the majority of people,
especially those new to heart rate training. The most precise
and accurate way of determining your individual max HR is to
have it clinically tested by a cardiologist or exercise physiologist
through the use of a maximal stress test. If you are over the age
of 40, overweight, have been sedentary for several years or
have a history of heart disease in your family, clinical testing is
recommended. This chart gives examples of the heart rate range
for a 30-year-old exercising at 5 different heart rate zones. For
example, a 30-year-old’s max HR is 220 – 30 = 190 BPM and
90% max HR is 190 × 0.9 = 171 BPM.

NOTES:
• Target heart rate is selected in multiples of 5 beats.
• The large LED dot matrix window displays your heart rate during
exercise. The middle row represents your target heart rate (THR) and
the other rows equal +/-2 heartbeats. If you are working out beneath
your THR, the LEDs below the middle row will illuminate. If you are
over, the LEDs above the middle row will illuminate. Your current heart
rate is represented by the flashing column and the window will refresh
every 5 seconds.
• There is a warm-up built into this program.
• After the warm-up, the resistance will automatically adjust to
bring your heart rate within 5 beats of the target number you
selected at the beginning of the program.
• If there is no heart rate detected, the unit will not change
resistance levels up or down.
• If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target zone, the program
will shut down.
