Manual Operation
•Start Pedaling
•All Display values will count upward; Total Miles, Time, Distance, Speed
•Room Temperature is displayed
Manual Operation with Count Down
•Without Pedaling, depress the PROGRAM key several times until
respective program symbols are flashing in the display.
•Select Count Upor Count Down Mode and depress SET. If no settings are
selected, "OFF" will display in the graphic field. You have to set at least
exercise distance or exercise time or energy consumption (watts);
otherwise the exercise unit will commence in the Count Up mode when
you start your exercise. Then simply begin exercising once enough
criteria is entered and the screen will change over to chosen program
viewing.
•Start Pedaling, After the setting(s) have been counted down to zero, the
Display changes over to Count Up mode. Only once exercising has
begun in either manual program count up or count down, the user may
then depress the program button to scroll through all the small readouts
(kilojoules, speed, RPM etc.) on the bottom of the LCD screen to make
any particular smaller reading the larger master reading in the top portion
of the LCD screen

Exercise with Exercise Settings and Programs
•Without Pedaling, depress the PROGRAM key several times until
respective program symbols are flashing in the display.
•Select Count Up or Count Down Mode and depress SET.
•Select Time using the + /-keys and depress SET.
•Select Programs 1 through 6 or HRC and depress SET.
•Select Distance using + /-keys and depress SET, if no setting select OFF
•If no settings are available, "OFF" will display in the graphic field.
•After all selections are completed (except Heart Rate Pulse Settings) and
set, the characters "READY" are displayed in the graphic field.
•Start PedalingHeart Rate Control is the last program choice. To properly
work, enough criteria must be entered such as time, distance, desired
starting Watts of resistance and target heart rate.
•Pulse Settings, Consult your physician before determining your personal
exercise use and exercise setting limits.
•The Heart Rate Pulse Setting depends on the Age of the person that will
exercise.There is an industry accepted so called "Heart Rate Zone", Rule
of Thumb :180 minus age for every age group which is defined by upper
and lower limits (= or –10 pulses).The Heart Rate should always be within
your own aerobic zone. The Maximum heart rate (200 minus age) should
not be exceeded.
•Enter the desired pulse rate within a range of 60 to 189. Caution check
with your physician before engaging in any vigorous exercise program.
•Start Pedaling
•The electronic computer will compare the current exercising pulse with
the one selected.If the current exercising pulse is less than 11 Pulses from
the Heart Rate Pulse Settingthe characters "LO" will appear in the display,
if the current exercising pulse exceeds 11 Pulses from the Heart Rate
Pulse Setting the characters "HI" will appear in the display. "LO" pulse rate
will be monitored after the Heart Rate Pulse setting is reached for the first
time while moving the pedals. "HI" pulse rate is always active.
•Recovery Pulse is the button on the left of the console. At the end of the
workout, immediately press the recovery pulse button and take a pulse
measurement by either the provided ear lobe clip, contact sensors on the
center handlebar or the accessory wireless chest belt for 60 seconds. The
computer then will calculate and provide a fitness rating of 1 to 6, 1 being
the best. Purpose is to track improvement of cardiovascular conditioning.

Heart Rate Control
•NOTE: Smooth recommends the use of the Cardio Pulse Set or the Ear
Clip when using the Cross Trainer in Heart Rate Control mode.
•Options for settings in the Heart Rate Control mode include: Distance,
Exercising Time, Energy Consumption (Watts), Pulse Rate during
Exercise, Performance.
•The difference between the set Heart Rate Pulse (see above) and the
current Heart Rate Pulse during exercise determines the computer
controlled performance adjustment. The Pulse Rate display in percent is
always active The Value is calculated between the active current pulse
rate and the set pulse rate. At the beginning of the exercise, the
performance of the set value will be increased until the set Heart Pulse
Rate has been reached. If the Value has been exceeded, the computer
controlled performance will be reduced.
•You should reach your set Pulse Rate after 5 minutes (approximately).
•You can only finish the Heart Rate Control Program your self. There is no
automatic termination of the program. The electronic system will continue
with the Heart Rate Control Program until you reset the system or shut it
down.
Recovery Key
•Comparing the heart rates during exercise and recovery is a simple and
effective way of judging physical fitness. Exercise for at least 10 minutes
in your own aerobic exercise exertion zone. The Cross Training Computer
allows you to measure your heart rate recovery physical fitness at the end
of your exercise (Fitness Mark). To get a reading use only one of the heart
rate measurement devices at one time, 1. Cardio Pulse /Set, 2. Ear Clip
Attachment, 3. Pulse Reading Hand Grip. If your are using the Hand Grip ,
maintain hand grip until reading is completed.
•Press the Recovery key (8) upon completion of the exercise.
•The Electronic System will measure your recovery heart rate for 60
seconds in thecountdown mode. A recovery rate calculation, (Fitness
Readout), read out will show in the computer display. Fitness Mark
readouts are displayed from F1.0 (Excellent) through F6.0 (Poor). If you
exercise regularly you should notice an improvement in your Fitness Mark.
