Heart rate measurement (heart rate chest belt)
NOTE
• A chest strap does not come standard with this trainer. When you
like to use a wireless chest strap you need to purchase this as an
accessory.
The most accurate heart rate measurement is achieved with a heart
rate chest belt. The heart rate is measured by a heart rate receiver
in combination with a heart rate transmitter belt. Accurate heart
measurement requires that the electrodes on the transmitter belt are
slight moist and constantly touching the skin.
If the electrodes are too dry or too moist, the heart rate measurement
will become less accurate.
WARNING
• If you have a pacemaker, consult a physician before using a
heartrate chest belt.
CAUTION
• If there are several heart rate measurement devices next to each
other, make sure that the distance between them is at least 1.5
metres.
• If there is only one heart rate receiver and several heart rate
transmitters, make sure that only one person with a transmitter is
within transmission range.
NOTE
• Do not use a heart rate chest belt in combination with the
handpulse sensors.
• Always wear the heart rate chest belt under your clothes directly
in contact with your skin. Do not wear the heart rate chest belt
above your clothes. If you wear the heart rate chest belt above
your clothes, there will be no signal.
• If you set a heart rate limit for your workout, an alarm will sound
when it is exceeded.
• The transmitter transmits the heart rate to the console up to a
distance of 1 metre. If the electrodes are not moist, the heart
rate will not appear on the display.
• Some fibers in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create static
electricity which can prevent accurate heart rate measurement.
• Mobile phones, televisions and other electrical appliances create
an electromagnetic field which can prevent accurate heart rate
measurement.
Maximum heart rate (during training)
The maximum heart rate is the highest heart rate a person can safely
achieve through exercise stress. The following formula is used to
calculate the average maximum heart rate: 220 - AGE. The maximum
heart rate varies from person to person.
WARNING
• Make sure that you do not exceed your maximum heart rate
during your workout. If you belong to a risk group, consult a
physician.
Beginner
50-60% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for beginners, weight-watchers, convalescents and persons
who have not exercised for a long time. Exercise at least three times a
week, 30 minutes at a time.
Advanced
60-70% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for persons who want to improve and maintain fitness.
Exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time.
Expert
70-80% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for the fittest of persons who are used to long-endurance
workouts.
Use
Master power switch (fig. E-2 A)
The equipment is equipped with a master power switch to shut down
the equipment completely.
To start the equipment:
- Insert the mains plug into the equipment.
- Insert the mains plug into the wall socket.
- Set the master power switch to the on position.
To stop the equipment:
- Set the mains power switch to the off position.
- Remove the mains plug from the wall socket.
- Remove the mains plug from the equipment.
Safety key (Fig F)
The equipment is equipped with a safety key that must be properly
inserted into the console to start the equipment. If your safety key is
pulled out partly it will activate the emergency mode and will have
the equipment stop immediately.
- Insert the safety key into the slot in the console by pressing in it
inwards.
- Make sure that the clip of the safety key is properly attached to
your clothing.
Make sure the clip attached to your clothing is attached firm
enough so it can pull out the safety key when needed.
NOTE
• The safety key cannot be removed from the unit, as it is a fixed
structure.
NOTE
• Console will show E7 code when safety key is not in (correct)
position during start up.
Circuit breaker (Fig. E-2 B)
The equipment is equipped with a circuit breaker that interrupts the
circuit when the electricity load is above the maximum capacity. When
this occurs, the circuit breaker must be pressed.
WARNING
• Before pressing the circuit breaker, remove the mains plug from
the equipment.
If the equipment shuts down, proceed as follows to restart the
equipment:
- Remove the mains plug from the equipment.
- Press the circuit breaker to restart the equipment.
- Insert the mains plug into the equipment.
NOTE
• Some circuit breakers used in homes are not rated for high inrush
currents that can occur when a treadmill is first turned on or even
during normal use. If your treadmill is tripping the circuit breaker
(even though it is the proper current rating and the treadmill is
the only appliance on the circuit) but the circuit breaker on the
treadmill itself does not trip, you will need to replace the breaker
with a high inrush type. This is not a warranty defect. This is a
condition we as a manufacture have no ability to control.
