Maintenance - Tunturi E40 Owner's Manual

FiTnEss TEsT
The meter uses a multi-step fitness test. The test begins at a
low level of effort, which increases steadily in accordance
with the selected test type. A multi-step test is a safe and
reliable, sub maximal means of measuring a person's
physical fitness level. The test continues until the test
subject has achieved his or her individual target heart rate
(85% of maximum heart rate).
The test requires the use of a heart rate belt: the meter
monitors changes in the heart rate throughout the
test, using the data to calculate an estimate of the
tested person's maximum oxygen uptake capacity. The
maximum oxygen uptake capacity is the best measure
of a person's physical fitness level. After the test, the
meter gives versatile information on your fitness level: a
description and a numerical value (ml/kg/min).
PREPARing FOR ThE TEsT
1. Make sure that the data associated with your username
is updated – the meter uses the user data as a basis for
the fitness test.
2. Select FITNESS TEST.
3. Using the selection dial, select the most suitable fitness
category for you:
A) Inactive = no regular exercise, poor physical
condition
B) Active = regular exercise, average or good physical
condition
C) Athletic = active training, good or excellent physical
condition
4. The display shows the appropriate test type for each
fitness category:
A) Step time = duration of different effort levels in the
test
B) First step = initial effort level
C) Step power = effort level of steps (in Watts), the test
features several steps
5. Confirm your selection by pressing the selection dial.
6. If necessary, you can adjust your target heart rate value
using the selection dial. Confirm your settings using the
selection dial. If Target HR is under 110 BPM it will not
calculate any result.
7. The display informs you that you can stop the test once
you reach the target heart rate for the test. Start the test
by pressing the selection dial.
PERFORMing ThE TEsT
1. The display shows the selected test step type. Start
pedalling to begin the test.
2. Once the target heart rate level has been achieved,
the meter gives an audio signal and displays a
message. We recommend that you end the test here,
unless you are relatively fit. If you have set your target
heart rate correctly (that is, if you have calculated your
maximum heart rate accurately enough), continuing
the test beyond this point will not increase the accuracy
of the result. If you overestimate your maximum heart
rate, your fitness level will be overestimated. Similarly,
if you underestimate your maximum heart rate, your
fitness level will be underestimated.
3. To stop the test once you reach the target heart rate
level, press the BACK/STOP button. The meter will now
switch to the test result display:
WARning!
Fitness test can be safe and the test result accurate only
when the test is performed under doctor supervision and
psycisian control.
nOTE!
Always select your fitness test protocol (Inactive, Active,
Athletic) so that test duration is at least 15-20 minutes.

MAinTEnAnCE

The equipment requires very little maintenance. Check,
however, from time-to-time that all screws and nuts are
tight.
• After exercising, clean the equipment with a soft,
absorbent cloth. Do not use solvents.
• Never remove the equipment's protective casing.
• The electromagnetic brake is based on electromagnetic
resistance; resistance level is electronically measured
and shown as Watt reading on the display. Due to the
measurement system, your Tunturi trainer need not
be re-calibrated when assembled, serviced and used
according to this Owner's Manual.
MAlFUnCTiOns
Despite continuous quality control, defects and
malfunctions caused by individual components may
occur in the equipment. In most cases it's unnecessary to
take the whole device in for repair, as it's usually sufficient
to replace the defective part.
