The Calorie window will switch etween Calories and Watts every 5 seconds. The Calorie
reading shows total Calories urned and is an approximate num er. The Watt reading
indicates how much work you are doing. If the Watt reading is 100, this means you are
doing enough work to light a 100 watt light ul .
The ottom left data window will switch etween RPM and Speed every 5 seconds. RPM is
your actual pedal rotation speed, and the Speed readout is in KPH, indicating approximate
road speed as if pedaling a icycle in 7

equals 100 Watts (or working at a rate that will keep a 100 Watt light ul urning). Watts
are determined y the amount of work you are doing. On the elliptical this means the speed
you are pedaling at com ined 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.

choices will automatically set the target to a percent of your maximum heart rate, ased 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 e 142BPM.

HR then use the Up/Down arrow to highlight THR and press mode. The Pulse window will
now e linking. 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 etter aero ic shape you are in. Pressing the
recovery utton 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 e displayed
ranging from F1 to F6 with F1 eing the highest score and F6 eing the lowest.

at a different rate.
WATTS: Indicates the amount of work eing done in Watts.
