measure is your own heart rate.
pULSE MEASUREMENT
WITH HANDGRIp pULSE
The handgrip sensors in the handrails take a pulse
measurement when the user of the T90 is touching
both sensors simultaneously. Reliable pulse
measurement requires that the skin is constantly
touching the sensors and that the skin is slightly
moist. Skin which is too dry or moist will interfere
with the pulse measurement. Please also note that
heavy pounding of feet on the running belt during
exercise can cause interference that may affect the
accuracy of the handgrip pulse measurement. To
ensure safe operation, we recommend that you use
pulse measurement only when training at a walking
pace or standing on the landing rails located on
each side of the running belt, or when the treadmill
has come to a stop. Once activated, the
NOTE!
pulse meter performs an initial check and starts
measuring your pulse in 8 seconds.
TELEMETRIc HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The most reliable heart rate measurement is
achieved with a telemetric device, in which the
electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest
transmit the pulses from the heart to the meter by
means of an electromagnetic field.
If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please
NOTE!
consult a physician before using a wireless heart rate
monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved
electrodes on the transmitter belt with saliva or
water. Fasten the transmitter just below the chest
with the elastic belt, firmly enough so that the
electrodes remain in contact with the skin while
exercising, but not so tight that normal breathing
is prevented. If you wear the transmitter and belt
over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly at the
points where the electrodes touch the shirt. The
transmitter automatically transmits the heart rate
reading to the meter up to a distance of about 1 m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-
rate reading will not appear on the display. If the
electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again.
Allow the electrodes warm up properly to ensure
accurate heart rate measurement. If there are several
telemetric heart rate measurement devices next to
each other, the distance between them should be at
least 1.5 m. Similarly, if there is only one receiver and
several transmitters in use, only one person with a
transmitter should be within transmission range.
The transmitter is switched to an active state only
when it is being used for measurement. Sweat and
other moisture can, however, keep the transmitter in
an active state and waste battery energy. Therefore
it is important to dry the electrodes carefully after
use.
O W N E R ' S M A N U A L
When selecting training attire, please note
that some fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester,
polyamide) create static electricity, which may
prevent reliable heart rate measurement.
Please note that a mobile phone, television and
other electrical appliances form an electromagnetic
field around them, which will cause problems in
heart rate measurement.
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the
rate doesn't increase with added effort. If you don't
know your maximum heart rate, please use the
following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
The maximum varies from person to person. The
maximum heart-rate diminishes on average by one
point per year. If you belong to a risk group, ask a
doctor to measure your maximum heart rate for you.
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to
help you with targeted training.
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
BEGINNER:
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents
and those who haven't exercised for a long time.
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each
is recommended. Regular exercise considerably
improves beginners' respiratory and circulatory
performance and you will quickly feel your
improvement.
60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
TRAINER:
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even
reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs
effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at
least three times a week. To improve your condition
still further, increase either frequency or effort, but
not both at the same time!
70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
AcTIVE TRAINER:
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.

FUNcTION KEYS
START
Starts the selected training and activates the
running belt.
SpEED cONTROL KEYS (RABBIT / TURTLE)
RABBIT key increases the belt speed in 0,1 km/h /
mph increments, the TURTLE key decreases it in 0,1
km/h / mph increments. Pressing these keys longer
makes the speed change faster. Track speed ranges
from 0,3-18,0 km/h / 0,2-11 mph.
ELEVATION cONTROL KEYS
Click the elevation up key to increase elevation
in 0,5 % increments, and the elevation down key
to decrease it in 0,5 % increments. Pressing these
keys longer makes the speed change faster. Track
