manual abstract
Refer to step 1 on page 12. Select one of the six Smart programs. Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Smart program, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 appears in the upper right corner of the display. The profiles numbered 1 through 6 on the left side of the console show the resistance and pace settings for the Smart programs. For example, profile number 3 shows that when Smart program 3 is selected, both the resistance and the pace will gradually increase during the first half of the program, and then decrease during the last half. 3 Start the program. To start the program, simply begin exercising. Each Smart program consists of either twenty or thirty, one-minute periods. One resistance setting and one pace setting are programmed for each period. (The same resistance setting and/or pace setting may be programmed for consecutive periods.) During the program, the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer will automatically change as shown by the applicable profile on the console. If the current resistance level is too high or too low, you can change the resistance level by pressing the + and – buttons. However, when the current period of the program is completed, the resistance level will automatically change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the next period. 6 5 4 The pace settings for the program will be shown by the right bar graph in Increase Arrow the display. (The left bar graph will show your actual exercise pace.) As the right bar graph changes during the program, simply increase or decrease your pace so that the same number of bars appear on both bar graphs. If your pace is slower than the current pace setting, the increase arrow will appear in the display to prompt you to increase your pace; if your pace is faster than the pace setting, the decrease arrow will appear. Important: The pace settings for the program are intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the pace settings, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. During the program, the display will show the time remaining in the program. When no time remains, the program will be completed. If you continue exercising after the program is completed, the display will continue to show your exercise feedback. Follow your progress with the feedback modes. Refer to step 4 on page 12. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 12. When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off. Refer to step 6 on page 12. 13 HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM Each Heart Rate program helps you to keep your heart rate near a certain percentage of your maximum heart rate during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart rate is 195.) Heart Rate program 7 is designed to keep your heart rate between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart rate while you exercise; Heart Rate program 8 is designed to keep your heart rate between 65% and 80% of your maximum heart rate. Follow the steps below to use a Heart Rate program. 2 1 Turn on the console. Refer to step 1 on page 12. Select one of the two Heart Rate programs. Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Heart Rate program, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 7 or 8 appears in the upper right corner of the display. The profiles numbered 7 and 8 on the right side of the console show the resistance settings for the Heart Rate programs. For example, profile number 7 shows that when Heart Rate program 7 is selected, the resistance level will gradually increase during the program and then decrease near the end. 3 Enter your age. When a Heart Rate program is selected, the word AGE will appear in the display. You must enter your age to use a Heart Rate program. To enter your age, first press the + or – button. The current age setting will then be shown. Next, press the + or – button repeatedly to enter your age. Once you have entered your age, your age will be saved in memory until the batteries are replaced. 4 5 Hold the handgrip pulse sensor. When using a Heart Rate program, you must use the handgrip pulse sensor. It is not necessary to hold the handgrips continuously during the program. However, you should hold the handgrips frequently for the program to operate properly. Each time you hold the handgrips, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When you are not holding the handgrips, the letters PLS will appear in the display instead of your heart rate. Start the program. To start the program, simply begin exercising. Each Heart Rate program consists of twenty, one- minute periods. One resistance setting and one heart rate setting are programmed for each period. (The same resistance setting and/or heart ra...
