After entering your age you should
select the target heart rate for your
exercise. Use the DOWN/UP keys to
select the desired option (55%, 75%
90% or THR)
ENTER/RESET key. The first three
represent the percentage with respect
to maximum heart rate (220-age) and
the fourth is used to specify the target
heart rate manually. In the first three
cases, the lower window on the display
(TARGET H.R) will show you the
calculated value for your maximum
heart rate level. If you choose THR
then you should use the DOWN/UP
keys to select the desired heart rate
and then press ENTER/RESET.
Press START/STOP to start the
exercise. The exertion level will adjust
automatically in accordance with the
selected hart rate value. If the pulse
rate is below the target value then the
exertion setting will increase by one
level every 60 seconds until it reaches
the maximum 16. If the pulse rate is
above the target value the monitor will
give out warning beeps and reduce
the exertion settings by one level
every 15 seconds until it reaches the
minimum 1. If the pulse rate still stays
above the target value for more than
30 seconds the monitor will beep and
stop in order to protect the user.
Your hands must be placed on the
pulse sensors (R) when using these
programs Fig.5.

the advantage of being able to measure
how long it takes your heart rate to
recover after
exercise. Upon finishing the exercise
leave your hands on the pulse gauges
and press the "Recovery Test" button,
this will start a one minute countdown.
Only the Time and Pulse rate function
read-outs will remain displayed. The
electronic device will measure your
pulse rate during this minute. The heart
rate recovery time will be displayed on
the Heart rate line.
If, at any time during this minute, you
decide to abandon this test then press
the "Recovery Test" button and this will
take you back to the main screen.
When the minute is up, the electronic
device will work out the difference and
your fitness rating will be displayed up
on the screen: F1, F2,..., F5, F16; where
F1 is the best (fitness "Excellent") and
F6 the worst (fitness "Very Poor").
The comparison between the worked
heart rate and the recovery heart rate
provides a fast, simple method of
gauging how fit you are. Your fitness
rating is a guideline that shows you
how fast your heart recovers after
physical exertion. If you exercise
regularly then you will see your fitness
rating improve.
