Start Stepping
As you start stepping, a buzzer sound will be initi-
ated, and the indication "AUTOMATIC START"
will be displayed on the graphic section. Now, you
can start stepping in accordance with the descending
pedal.
The pedal speed will be displayed at the lower part of
the graphic section. One dot along the horizontal
axis indicates 15 seconds, and one along the vertical
axis indicates 3 feet/min.
At the same time, the present pulse rate will be dis-
played and blinks at the upper part of the graphic
screen. One dot along the vertical axis indicates 2
bpm.
At every 15 seconds, a new row of dots will appear
and blink.
The pedal speed will be automatically increased so
that the pulse rate goes up toward the target pulse
rate you set.

Exercise Maintaining the Target Pulse Rate
5
Once the target pulse rate has been reached, and if
the pulse rate during your exercise deviates more
than ± 3 bpm from the target, the pedal speed
changes to keep your pulse rate closer to the target.
A press of the MODE button will change the mode
from "elevation (feet)" to "consumed calorie
(kcal)."
Note When the pulse rate is "0" (when the ear-
lobe sensor is removed) or when the pedal ca-
dence is "0" (when not exercising), the pedal re-
sistance will not change.
Remarks The graphic screen will display the
data for maximum 15 minutes. At the end of 15
minutes period, the graphic screen will scroll to
move the present position to the center of the
screen.
