OPERATING YOUR NB/NR 3000 COMPUTER
> Heart Rate Monitoring
The Nautilus NB/NR 3000 bikes are equipped with both touch heart rate as well
as a wireless heart rate receiver. To use the touch heart rate feature simply place
both hands on the metal handgrip sensors making sure both your palms are in
contact on the front side and your fingers are in contact on the opposite side (Fig.
6). The computer will also receive and display your heart rate using an optional
heart rate transmitter belt. Adjust the belt to fit snugly, located just below your
chest as shown (Fig. 7).
> Heart Rate Control Programs
The Heart Rate Control Programs are designed to keep you exercising at exactly your
target heart rate. This is done by constantly monitoring your heart rate through
either the touch sensors or optional transmitter belt and adjusting the resistance
level up or down to maintain your target heart rate.
1. To begin the Heart Rate Control Program, select the Heart Rate Program from
the program selection menu and press ENTER to confirm.
2. You will now need to enter age and weight.
3. Your target heart rate will then be displayed. This number is 70% of your maxi-
mum heart rate.
Example: 220 – Age (40) = 180
180 beats per minute is the approximate maximum heart rate for someone 40
years of age.
180 x 70% = 126
126 beats per minute is the target heart rate that the computer will keep you
working at.
