P18 to P22 - Target heart rate training
These modes require the input of a target heart rate. The device will then try to control the resistance level
automatically according to the desired heart rate level. The programmes 18 to 21 will calculate the maxi-
mum pulse frequency by the input of your age and a percentage.
The formula is: x% (e.g. 55%,65%,75% or 85%) x (220 – your age).
After starting the programme, the resistance level will be controlled automatically constantly during exer-
cise. If you have chosen programme 22, you need to input a target heart rate directly (min. 80 / max. 180
beats per minute) - the standard value is 120.
You may also input target values for the function values time, distance and calories.
P23 - Exercise with preset Watt value
In this exercise mode, you can preset WATT and other values. After you have selected this mode, the device
will prompt you to input TIME, DISTANCE, WATT, CALORIES and PULSE. Press „UP" / „DOWN" and „ENTER"
to input all these values. Press „START/STOP" to start the exercise.
The Watt load depends on the rounds per minute and the level of resistance. The device is able to calculate
the Watt load and display the respective value. Your computer will control the tension automatically during
exercise. You can not adjust the resistance manually as usual in this programme!
Please pay attention, that if a watt preset value is of medical necessity in your case, you need definitely talk
to your doctor before using this device. Your doctor should accompany this exercise and should give you
advice on the use and surveillance.
P24 - Body-fat measurement
This mode will process a body-fat measurement. In the following we will present you this advanced tech-
nology and for what it is good. However, we strongly recommend to consult your physician before starting
this body fat measurement in order to clarify if such a measurement by electrical current is suitable for you.
How to reach your ideal body type and improve your health
Being fit has many advantages, from helping you to control your weight to giving you a better night sleep.
Most important of all, there is impressive and mounting evidence that people who exercise regularly, and in
the right way, are less prone to killer diseases such as heart attacks and strokes and live longer than people
who do not exercise.
Different diseases like e.g. diabetes, heart diseases and certain forms of cancer can be controlled or even
avoided by controlling body fat levels.
If you watch your body fat you can reduce or increase your weight according to measured values by taking
in more or less calories (ask a specialist for more information). Usually the individual part of body fat will be
given as a percentage of the total body weight.
Weight reduction should happen by reduction of body fat and not by reduction of muscle mass or water.
