Follow your progress with the main display.

See THE MAIN DISPLAY on page 10.

See HOW TO TURN OFF THE CONSOLE on

page 9.

HOW TO USE THE PULSE PRO-

GRAMS

HOW TO USE THE PULSE PROGRAMS

The CONSTANT PULSE program will automatically

control the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart

rate near a target level during your workout. 

The VARIABLE PULSE program will automatically

control the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart

rate within a target range during your workout. 

Begin pedaling to activate the console.

See HOW TO ACTIVATE THE CONSOLE on

page 9.

Select one of the PULSE programs.

To select a PULSE program, first press the

PULSE button. The indicator on the button will

light, and the word “PULSE” will appear in the main

display for a moment. 

Next, the words “CONSTANT MODE” will appear

in the main display. If you plan to use the CON-

STANT PULSE program, press the ENTER but-

ton. If you plan to use the VARIABLE PULSE pro-

gram, press the + or – button beside the ENTER

button so that the words “VARIABLE MODE” ap-

pear in the main display; then press the ENTER

button.

Enter your age.

See step 3 on page 13.

Enter your weight.

See step 4 on page 13.

Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

Next, the words “PCT MAX RATE” and the maxi-

mum heart rate setting of the program will appear

in the main display. The maximum heart rate set-

ting represents a 

percentage of your estimated

maximum heart rate. Note: Your maximum heart

rate is estimated by subtracting your age from

220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your

estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per

minute (220 – 30 = 190). Therefore, if you are 30

years old, a target heart rate setting of 50% is

equal to 95 beats per minute (50% of 190 is 95).

If you wish to change the maximum heart rate set-

ting, press the + and – buttons beside the ENTER

button. When the desired maximum heart rate

setting is shown, press the ENTER button. 

Enter a program time.

See step 5 on page 13.

Begin exercising and hold the handgrip pulse

sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-

sor continuously during PULSE programs.

However, you must hold the handgrip pulse sen-

sor frequently for the programs to operate prop-

erly. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sen-

sor, keep you hands on the contacts for at least

15 seconds.

During PULSE

programs, the ma-

trix will display a

heartbeat graphic.

Each time a heart-

beat is detected,

an additional peak

will appear in the

matrix.
