Heart Rate Features Important Use and Safety Information CALORIES HEART RATE 9.35 SmartRate WARMUP FATBURN CARDIO 109 • PEAK HIGH Heart rate and SmartRate® features are available when you wear the chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips. When a heartbeat is detected, the HEART RATE display shows your heart rate and, if your age has been entered, the SmartRate LED pulses and indicates your target zone.
• The calculation used for the heart rate target zone is: (220 minus your age) multiplied by a percent. For example: Low range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 55% High range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 85% Refer to Table 1 in Using SmartRate. • • • Heart Rate Target Zones 200 Note: When a signal is detected, a number flashes in the HEART RATE display and indicates your heart rate.
Wearing a Chest Strap During a workout, the heart rate features appear on the display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an accurate reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct contact with your skin. 1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water Refer to Diagram 7. Important: Do not use deionized water. It does not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical impulses. 2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The strap should feel snug, not restrictive.
Using the Heart Rate Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips While exercising, you must grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips for a minimum of five to ten seconds to transmit your heart rate to the display. Refer to Diagram 10. Usually, the concentration of salts in a person’s perspiration provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the receiver inside the display console.
Table 1 shows the percents used in calculating the heart rate target zones. While your heart rate remains within these zones, the corresponding lights blink and provide a visual cue. The calculation used to determine your maximum aerobic heart rate is (220 minus your age). When you multiply it by the percent indicated in Table 1, you can understand the relationship between the pulsating LED and your target heart rate.
Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate Heart Rate Analysis A heart rate receiver is an integral part of the display so you can monitor your heart rate while exercising. If you wear a chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips, your heart rate (beats per minute) appears on the display.
