General notes

System sounds

Switching on
On switching on, a short sound is emitted during the segment
test.
End of program
An end of program (profile programs, countdown) is signaled
by a short sound.
Maximum pulse exceeding
If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat, 2 short
sounds are emitted every 5 seconds.
Error output
For errors, e.g. recovery not executable without pulse signal, 3
short sounds are emitted.
Automatic scan function switching on and off
On activation and deactivation of the automatic scan function,
a short sound is emitted.

Recovery

In the function the centrifugal mass is slowed down automatical-
ly. Further training is unsuitable.
Calculation of the fitness grade (F):
Grade (F) = 6.0 –
P1 = load pulse,
F1.0 = very good,

Switchover time/distance

For the programs 1-6, the profile per column can be switched
over from the time mode (1 minute) to the distance mode (400
meters or 0.2 miles) in the defaults section. Cross trainer ergo-
meter: (200 meters or 0.1 miles)

Profile display during training

At the beginning, the first column is blinking. After completion,
it moves on to the right.
For profiles over 30 minutes up to the middle (column 15), then
the profile is shifted from the right to the left. If the profile end
appears in the last column (column 30), the blinking column
moves further to the right until program end.

Speed-independent operation

(constant power)
The electromagnetic eddy-current brake regulates the braking
torque for changing pedal speed to the set power.

Arrows up/down

(Speed-independent operation)
If a power rate cannot be achieved with speed (e.g. 400 Watts
with 50 pedal revolutions), the up or down arrow prompts
faster or slower pedaling.
Speed-dependent operation (running ergometer)
(constant braking torque)
The electromagnetic eddy-current brake sets a constant braking
torque.

P2 = recovery pulse
F6.0 = insufficient

Average value calculation

The average value calculation takes place per training unit.

Notes on pulse measurement

Pulse calculation starts, when the heart in the display is blinking
simultaneously to your pulse beat.

With ear clip

The pulse sensor works with infrared light and measures the
alterations of the translucency of your skin, which are caused by
your pulse beat. Before you clamp the pulse sensor to your ear-
lobe, rub it well 10 times to increase circulation.
Avoid disturbing pulses.
• Attach the ear clip carefully to your earlobe and search for
the most suitable point for measuring (heart symbol blinking
without interruption).
• Do not execute your training directly under strong incidence
of light e.g. neon light, halogen light, spot, sun light.
• Completely exclude vibrations and wobbling of the ear sen-
sor including the cable. Always fix the cable to your clothing
by means of the clip or even better to a headband.
With chest strap (accessory)
Not always included in delivery, available from authorised dealers.
The Cardio-Pulse-Set with Polar chest strap is available as an
accessory (item no. 67002000).

With hand pulse

An extra-low voltage generated by contraction of the heart is
recorded by the hand sensors and analyzed by the electronic
equipment
• Always grip the contact surfaces with both hands
• Avoid jerky gripping
• Keep your hands still and avoid contractions and rubbing on
the contact surfaces.
Interferences at the training computer
Press the reset key
Information on the interface
The training programs "TourConcept", item no. 7926-700,
which is available at your specialist dealer, makes possible to
control this KETTLER device by means of a PC /notebook via the
interface. For further information and for information on softwa-
re updates (firmware) of this device, go to

Training instructions

Sports medicine and training science use bicycle ergometry,
among others, for examination of the functionality of the cardio-
vascular and respiratory system.
Whether your training achieved the desired effects after some
weeks you can determine as follows:
1. You achieve a certain stamina with lower cardiovascular per-
formance than before
2. You keep a certain stamina with the same cardiovascular
