Screw the pedals into the threads of the crank

arms. Screw the left pedal (marked L for left-hand

thread) into the left crank arms. Use the wrench

and rotate it counterclockwise. Screw the right

pedal (marked R for right-hand thread) tightly

clockwise into the right crank arm. Now attach the

pedal straps to the pedals.

EXERCISING

If the product is not stable, adjust the stabilizing

screws under the rear support appropriately.

EXERCISE LEVEL

Working out using an exercise cycle is excellent

aerobic exercise, the principle being that the

exercise should be suitably light, but of long

duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving

the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn

improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the

body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on

its oxygen uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should

above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you

should not get out of breath during the workout.

You must, for example, be able to speak and not

just pant while pedaling. You should exercise at

least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to

reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level

requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once

the basic condition has been reached, it is easily

improved, simply by increasing the number of

exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for

weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing

the energy spent by the body. This is why it is

always worthwhile to combine regular exercise

with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily

- at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually

increasing the daily workout time to one hour.

You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed

and low resistance, because strenuous exercise

may subject the heart and circulatory system to

excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and

pedaling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise

efficiency can be measured by monitoring the

pulse. The pulse meter helps you monitor your

pulse easily during exercise, and thus to ensure

that the exercise is sufficiently effective but not

overstrenuous.

HEART RATE

No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best

results by training at the right level of effort, and

the best measure is your own heart rate.

First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the

rate doesn’t increase with added effort. C1’s meter

calculates your approximate maximum pulse level

using the following formula:

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.

BEGINNER

•

50-60 % of maximum heart-rate.

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.

TRAINER

•

60-70 % of maximum heart-rate.

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!

ACTIVE TRAINER

•

70-80 % of maximum heart-

rate.

Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and

presupposes long-endurance workouts.

•

The heart rate is measured in three ways:

A) Using the handgrip heart rate sensors

B) Using an ear clip with cable (available as an

optional extra)

C) Using a chest strap (wireless, telemetric),

optional

The chest strap and receiver/adapter are available as

optional extras.

Do not use more than one measuring system at the

same time.

MEASURING PULSE WITH HAND SENSORS

C1 measures pulse with sensors which are located

in the hand supports and which measure the

pulse each time the user touches both sensors

simultaneously.

For reliable pulse measurement, the skin must be

in continuous contact with the sensors and the

skin in contact with the sensors should be slightly

moist. Too dry or too moist skin will impair hand

pulse measurement. Please note also that active

use of the upper body muscles during exercise may
