Calories will now be blinking, repeat the same process as above to set, then press Mode. The Watt icon will be blinking. If you choose to set the Watts then the machine will automatically adjust the workload to maintain continuous work. What this means is that if you set the Watt to 100 the machine will try to keep you working at a rate of work that equals 100 Watts (or working at a rate that will keep a 100 Watt light bulb burning). Watts are determined by the amount of work you are doing. On the elliptical this means the speed you are pedaling at combined with the workload of the machine. In Watt mode, if you change your speed the machine will automatically change the workload to maintain the same Watt level. If you pedal faster the workload will decrease and if you pedal slower the workload increases. After adjusting all the parameters, press Start to begin your workout. 11 ZE20 Preset Programs There are 12 preset programs to choose from. After power up, or reset, press the Up/Down keys to highlight the Program icon. Press the Mode key to enter the program mode. The display will show P1, for two seconds, then change to the P1 program profile. You may keep pressing the Up/Down keys to scroll through the 12 programs. When you see a program you want, press the Mode key to enter. At this point you may press start to begin the program with the default settings or you may customize the program. To customize the work level, press the Up key. You will see the profile increase in size. When the work level is where you like it press the Mode key (If you do not want to customize the profile, just press the Mode key to bypass). The Time window will now be blinking. Use the Up and Down keys to adjust the workout time and then press Mode. The Distance window will now be blinking. Repeat the same process to set the distance to count down, if desired, and press Mode. The Calorie window will now be blinking. Repeat the same process then press Mode. The Pulse window will now be blinking. Entering a Pulse number will set an alarm that will beep when your heart rate reaches the programmed number to let you know you have reached your target. Once you have set the data you may press Start to begin the program. You may also press Start at any time during the programming to begin. Any data that is not programmed at that point will count up from zero. When the program ends there is a series of audible beeps. You may press Start to restart the program or press Reset to return to the start-up screen. User Program This mode allows you to build and save your own custom program. Press the Up or Down key until the User icon at the top of the display is blinking then press Mode. The first column of the profile will be blinking. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust the work level then press Mode. The second column will now be blinking. Repeat the same process as above and press Mode. Repeat this process until all the columns are adjusted to your liking. All the settings will be saved as a custom program. Target HR This program allows you to set a target heart rate and the machine will automatically adjust the work load to safely reach the target and maintain that target. Use the Up/Down keys to select the Target HR program and press Mode. The display will show a number and the age icon at top will be blinking. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust the age and press Mode. The display will now show a blinking percent number or the letters THR. You may use the Up/Down keys to choose either 55%, 75%, 90% or THR. The percentage choices will automatically set the target to a percent of your maximum heart rate, based on your age. This is why it is important to adjust the age properly. The console will use a formula to determine the correct percentage: 220 – age = maximum HR. For example a 30 year old persons’ Max HR is 190 BPM (220 – 30 = 190 BPM). If the 30 year old wants to work at 75%, their target HR will be 142BPM. 12 ZE20 If you want to choose to work at 75% -for example -then use the Up/Down arrows to highlight 75% and press mode. Now the Time window will be blinking and you can program it and other data the same as other programs. If you want to set your own custom Target HR then use the Up/Down arrow to highlight THR and press mode. The Pulse window will now be blinking. Use the Up/Down arrows to set your own Target HR and press Mode to continue. Recovery Used to measure how fast your heart rate (HR) recovers from exercise. The faster your HR returns to normal from exercise level, the better aerobic shape you are in. Pressing the recovery button will start a 60 second count down. Hold the hand pulse sensors and do not exercise during the count down. At the end of the 60 seconds a score will be displayed ranging from F1 to F6 with F1 being the highest score and F6 being the lowest. WINDOW DISPLAY TIME: Count up: accumulates training time from zero to 99:59. Count down: counts down from preset time to zero. SPEED/ RPM: Automatically toggles between ...
