puter will provide a warm up period and then slowly increase the resistance
one level every 30 seconds until the target heart rate is achieved. The com'

the target zone. Changes in your heart rate will effect resistance level. There
are several ways to preset your target heart rate. The computer will ask you
your age and determine your theoretical maximum heart rate based on age.

Function:
The recoverv mode is a fitness test that will provide an indication of your rela-
tive fitness based on your body's ability to recover from exercise. This is only
a reference and not a medical exam. After completing your workout routine
but before Vour warm down, press the RECOVERY
button on the console to
begin Vour 60-second fitness test. During the test, stop exercising but contin-
ue to hold the grip heart rate sensors in your hand. Try to relax and allow your
bodv to recover from your workout. During the test the computer will display
a 60-second count down clock. During the 60 seconds the computer will mon-
itor your heart rate recoverv and issue a result at the end of the test. The
results range on a scale from F6 (lowest level of fitness) to F'l (Highest level of
fitness). use this test as a tool to gauge your improvements over time. There
is little value in performing this test on a daily basis as improvements in your
fitness take time. lt is generally not necessary to use this test more than 2
times a month. People in the F6-F3 fitness level can often make rapid
improvements in their general fitness level. People in the F2-F1 category will
not likely see rapid improvements in their score due to their generally high
level of initial fitness.
How to use this mode:
1. After completion of Vour exercise routine push RECOVERY
to begin the fit-
ness test.
2. Remain seated and holding both grip heart rate sensors located on the han-
dlebar.
3. During the 60-second test remain as calm and relaxed as possible allowing
your body to recover from the physical activity.
4. At the end of 60-seconds the test result will display on the screen, scores
range from F6 (lowest fitness level) to F1 thighest). Note your score for future
comparison.
