Operating Instructions

A. Exercising With a Specific Goal:
1. TIME Control: Set your workout duration for a specific amount of time.
2. DISTANCE Control: Set your workout duration for a specific DISTANCE.
3. WATT Control: Set the WATTS for a workout and the display computer will make
adjustments to maintain the selected WATTS level.
4. CALORIE Control: Set your workout duration to burn a specific number of calories (Except
in Program 8 & 17)
5. HEART RATE: If you would like to monitor your heart rate while using the PhysioStep LXT,
simply use any chest belt- there is not contact heart rate, so you must be using a heart
rate monitor to show your pulse on the display.

CALORIES and AGE. Then, press ▲ or ▼ key to adjust the values. Press
"START/STOP" key to begin exercising. Users may adjust the level (by pressing ▲ or ▼
during the workout) with a period of time or a certain DISTANCE. With the input of age,
the computer may suggest a target heart rate to exercise. The suggested heart rate is
85% (220 – age). So, if the heart rate detected equals to or greater than the TARGET H.R.,
