Monitoring Your Heart Rate
To obtain the greatest cardiovascular benefits from your
exercise workout, it is important to work within your target
heart rate zone. The American Heart Association (AHA)
defines this target as 60%-75% percent of your maximum
heart rate.
Your maximum heart rate may be roughly calculated by
subtracting your age from 220. Your maximum heart rate
and aerobic capacity naturally decreases as you age. This
may vary from one person to another, but use this number
to find your approximate effective target zone. For example,
the maximum heart rate for an average 40 year-old is 180
bpm. The target heart rate zone is 60%-75% of 180 or 108-
135 bpm. See Fitness Safety on page 14.
Before beginning your workout, check your normal resting
heart rate. Place your fingers lightly against your neck, or
against your wrist over the main artery. After finding your
pulse, count the number of beats in 10 seconds. Multiply
the number of beats by six to determine your pulse rate per
minute. We recommend taking your heart rate at these
times; at rest, after warming up, during your workout and
two minutes into your cool down, to accurately track your
progress as it relates to better fitness.
During your first several months of exercising, the AHA rec-
ommends aiming for the lower part of the target heart rate
zone-60%, then gradually progressing up to 75%.
According to the AHA, exercising above 75% of your maxi-
mum heart rate may be too strenuous unless you are in top
physical condition. Exercising below 60% of your maximum
will result in minimal cardiovascular conditioning.
13
Check your pulse recovery rate – If your pulse is over 100
bpm five minutes after you stop exercising, or if it’s higher
than normal the morning after exercising, your exertion may
have been too strenuous for your current fitness level. Rest
and reduce the intensity next time.
Fitness Safety The target heart rate chart indicates aver-
age rate zones for different ages. A variety of different factors (including
medication, emotional state, temperature and other conditions) can
affect the target heart rate zone that is best for you. Your physician or
health care professional can help you determine the exercise intensity
that is appropriate for your age and condition.
(MHR) = Maximum Heart Rate
(THR) = Target Heart Rate
220 - age = maximum heart rate (MHR).
MHR x .60 = 60% of your maximum heart rate.
MHR x .75 = 75% of your maximum heart rate.
For example, if you are 30 years old, your
calculations will be as follows:
220 - 30 = 190
190 x .60 = 114 (low end or 60% of MHR)
190 x .75 = 142 (high end or 75% of MHR)
30 year-old (THR) Target Heart Rate would be 114-142
See Table on page 16 for additional calculations.

CONSOLE INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING CONSOLE: (After the computer is powered
on with batteries installed)
Step One
You may use UP or DOWN to select training
mode in MANUAL or PROGRAM (12 different
profiles) or USER or TARGET HEART RATE
control (4 different options for training). If you
select training with Target Heart Rate control
mode, you need to input AGE data, and
switch to next procedure.
Step Two
You may use UP or DOWN to adjust the
training LOAD/DIFFICULTY level from 1 to 16
under MANUAL, PROGRAM and USER
mode. (Excludes TARGET HEART RATE
CONTROL mode)
Step Three You may use UP or DOWN to preset training
function data. Once each function data has
been set, press MODE/ENTER.
Available preset training functions:
TIME:
Preset number is from 00:00 to 99:00,
each increment is 1:00 (minute).
DISTANCE: Preset number is from 0.00 to 99.90,
each increment is 0.10 km or ml.
CALORIE: Preset number is from 0 to 990, each
increment is 10 calories.
PULSE:
Preset number is from 30 to 240, each
increment is 1 BPM. (Excluded in
TARGET H.R control mode)
Step Four
Press START/STOP button to start training.
16
TRAINING MODE INSTRUCTION: To start your training
As soon as you press START/STOP button, the computer
starts working:
Training with PRESET TIME:
If you have a preset TIME, each unit of the workout
profile switches forward to another unit per preset
TIME divided by 16.
Training without preset time:
If you do not preset TIME, each unit of the workout
profile switches forward to another unit per 0.1 km or
ml in counting up (no preset DISTANCE) or counting
down (has preset DISTANCE).
Tension difficulty adjustment:
Training in MANUAL - You may adjust the tension load from
1 to 16 during training.
Training with 12 profiles - You can adjust the tension
difficulty during training any time.
Training in TARGET H.R. control - The tension difficulty will
be auto-adjusted according to the current heart rate
figure. If your heart rate figure is under the target
pulse, the tension difficulty will be up-adjusted one
level per 30 seconds, up to the maximum level. As
soon as your heart rate figure is achieved at the
target pulse, tension difficulty will be down-adjusted
one level immediately, and keep down-adjusting one
level per 15 seconds until level 1. If your current
heart rate is still over (or equal to) the target
pulse for 30 seconds when tension is level 1, the
computer system will STOP and ALARM for 6 beeps
to alert you for training protection.
17
To stop your training:
Training with PRESET function datas:
As soon as the preset function data counts down to
zero,(pulse figures excluded) the computer has 8
beep sounds to alert you. At this moment, the
computer will stop working. You may press
START/STOP button to start the computer working
and counting up from the previous data.
Interupt training:
You may press START/STOP button to stop the
computer during training at any time.

the grips with both hands. The heart rate
figure displays a range from 0 to 240 BPM.
You may preset target pulse to assist in your
training. The options you have are as follows:
Alarm - If you preset the target pulse while
training with Manual or 4 profiles, then the
computer will alarm to remind as soon as your
current heart rate is achieved at the preset
figure.
19
Load tension adjustment - If you are training
with one of the four target pulse percentages,
then the load tension difficulty will be
controlled by your current heart rate figure
compared with the preset target.
RECOVERY After exercising for a period of time, keep
holding on grips and press "RECOVERY"
button, all function displays will stop except
"Time". Time starts counting down from 00:60
- 00:59 - 00:58 - to 00:00. As soon as 00:00
is reached, the bottom area of the LCD will
show your heart rate recovery status with the
grade F1, F2,… F6. F1 is the best, and F6 is
the worst. You may keep exercising to improve
the heart rate recovery status day by day from
F6 up to F1.
** Press the RECOVERY button again to
return to the main display.
NOTE:
1. When no signal has been transferred into the computer
for 4 minutes, the LCD display will shut off automatically
