sor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips con-
tinuously during the program. owever, you should
hold the handgrips frequently for the program to
operate properly. Each time you hold the hand-
grips, 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 pedalling.
Program 7 consists of twenty, one-minute peri-
ods. One resistance setting and one heart rate
setting are programmed for each period. (The
same resistance setting and/or heart rate setting
may be programmed for consecutive periods.)
Program 8 is sixty minutes long (you may choose
to use only part of the program). The same resis-
tance setting and target heart rate setting are pro-
grammed for the entire program.
f program 7 is selected, the resistance of the
elliptical crosstrainer will automatically change as

change unless the target heart rate setting is
changed. Pressing the + and – buttons will
change the target heart rate setting.
As you pedal, the
pace indicators
will help you to
keep your heart
rate near the tar-
get current heart
rate. The left
indicator will
show your actual pedalling pace. The right indica-
tor will show a target pace. When you hold the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest
pulse sensor, the console will compare your heart
rate to the current target heart rate. If necessary,
the right indicator will then change in height to

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM

prompt you to increase or decrease your pace to
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate. When the right indicator changes in height,
increase or decrease your pace so that both indi-
cators are at the same height. If your pace is
slower than the current target pace, the increase
arrow will appear in the display; if your pace is
faster than the target pace, the decrease arrow
will appear. mportant: The target pace is
intended only to provide a goal. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target pace,
especially during the first few months of your
exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
If you continue pedalling after the program is
completed, the display will continue to show your
exercise feedback.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.

cal crosstrainer
rocks slightly during use, turn one or both of the level-
ing feet under the front stabilizer until the rocking
motion is eliminated.
HANDGR P PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOT NG
• Avoid moving your hands whilst using the handgrip
pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere
with heart rate readings. Do not hold the metal con-
tacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart
rate readings.
• For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the
metal contacts for about 15 seconds.
• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sen-
sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts
can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
