Use; Adjusting Resistance - Tunturi R60 Mode D'emploi

These are average values and the maximum varies from
person to person. The maximum heart-rate diminishes on
average by one point per year. If you belong to a risk
group, ask a doctor to measure your maximum heart rate
for you.
We have defi ned three different heart-rate zones to help
you with targeted training.
BEGINNER: 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven't exercised for a long time.
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each is
recommended. Regular exercise considerably improves
beginners' respiratory and circulatory performance and
you will quickly feel your improvement.
TRAINER: 60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fi tness. Even
reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs
effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at least
three times a week. To improve your condition still further,
increase either frequency or effort, but not both at the
same time!
ACTIVE TRAINER: 70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fi ttest and presupposes
long-endurance workouts.

USE

ADJUSTING RESISTANCE

During exercise you may increase/decrease exercise
intensity by pressing the + / - keys. Increase resistance/
pulse with the + and decrease resistance/pulse with the -
key.
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The console has a heart rate receiver compatible with
Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar uncoded
heart rate belts for heart rate measurement. The most
reliable heart rate measurement is achieved with
a telemetric device, in which the electrodes of the
transmitter fastened to the chest transmit the pulses from
the heart to the console by means of an electromagnetic
fi eld.
NOTE! If you are fi tted with a pacemaker, please
consult a physician before using a wireless heart rate
monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way during
your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes on the
transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten the transmitter
just below the chest with the elastic belt, fi rmly enough
so that the electrodes remain in contact with the skin
while exercising, but not so tight that normal breathing is
prevented. Attach the transmitter and adjust the fl exible
belt to an appropriate tightness below chest level so that
the electrodes are in contact with the skin during exercise.
If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light shirt,
moisten the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes
touch the shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits
the heart rate reading to the console up to a distance of
about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-rate
reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes
are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the
electrodes warm up properly to ensure accurate heart
rate measurement. The transmitter is switched to an active
state only when it is being used for measurement. Sweat
and other moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in
an active state and waste battery energy. Therefore it is
important to dry the electrodes carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note that some
fi bers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create
static electricity, which may prevent reliable heart rate
measurement. Please note that a mobile phone, television
and other electrical appliances form an electromagnetic
fi eld around them, which will cause problems in heart rate
measurement.
ROWING MOTION
Tighten the footstraps. Take a grip on the bar and start the
rowing stroke by leaning slightly forward, with the knees
bent and the arms straight. Push yourself backwards
straightening your back and your legs simultaneously.
Continue the movement until you lean slightly backwards
and fl ex your armsat the same time. Return to the starting
position, lean forward and straighten your arms.
