PULSE GRIPS
Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart
rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping
the pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose,
cupping hold. You may experience an erratic readout if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars. Make sure
to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.
WIRELESS CHEST TRANSMITTER (EX-75 ONLY)
Prior to wearing the wireless chest transmitter on your
chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes with water.
Center the chest strap just below the breast or pectoral
muscles, directly over your sternum, with the logo facing
out.
NOTE:
The chest strap must be tight and properly
placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If
the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you
may receive an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout.
WARNING!
The heart rate function is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of your heart rate
reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an
exercise aid.
NOTE:
Chest Strap sold separately. Works with Polar®
Chest Straps.

HEART RATE
THR ZONE / TARGET HEART RATE (EX-55, EX-65, EX-75)
Automatically adjust the resistance level to keep your heart rate in your desired range (see THR ZONE CHART
on page 28).
60% OF MAX HEART RATE:
Used for beginners and longer workouts.
Lower intensity and longer duration helps burn fat more efficiently.
65% OF MAX HEART RATE:
Used for beginner to intermediate users and mid to long range workouts.
Lower intensity and longer duration helps burn fat more efficiently.
70% OF MAX HEART RATE:
For intermediate users and mid range cardio workouts.
While this range burns fat it really challenges the cardiovascular system and helps strengthen the heart.
75% OF MAX HEART RATE:
For advanced users and short to mid range cardio workouts.
Burns fat, tones muscles and challenges the heart.
0% OF MAX HEART RATE:
