HEART RATE WINDOW
The Pulse (Heart Rate) window will display your current heart rate in beats per minute during the
workout. You must use both left and right stainless steel sensors to pick up your pulse. Pulse values are
displayed anytime the computer is receiving a Grip Pulse signal. You may use the Grip Pulse feature
while in Heart Rate Control. The Recumbent Stepper will also pick up wireless heart rate transmitters
that are Polar compatible, including coded transmissions.
TO TURN RECUMBENT STEPPER OFF
This function is called sleep mode. The display will automatically turn off (go to sleep) after 30 minutes
of inactivity. In sleep mode, the Recumbent Stepper will power down most everything except for a
minimum of circuitry for detecting button presses and the safety button, so it will start up again if these
are activated. The default setting for sleep mode is OFF; follow the instructions on page 35 to turn it on.
PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your
needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will be
asked for your Age and Weight. Your Age is also necessary during the Heart Rate control program to
ensure the correct settings are in the program for your Age. Otherwise, the work settings could be too
high or low for you; entering your Weight aids in calculating a correct Calorie reading. Although we
cannot provide an exact calorie count, we do want to be as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym or at
home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor your progress
from workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn accurately is in a clinical setting
connected to a host of machines. This is because every person is different and burns calories at a
different rate. Some good news is that you will continue to burn calories at an accelerated rate for at least
an hour after you have finished exercising!
ENTERING A PROGRAM & CHANGING SETTINGS
When you enter a program, you have the option of entering your own personal settings. If you want to
work out without entering new settings, then just press the Start key. This will bypass the programming
of data and take you directly to the start of your workout. If you want to change the personal settings,
then just follow the instructions in the Dot Matrix Message Center. If you start a program without
changing the settings, the default or pre-saved settings will be used.
