measured by placing both hands on
the sensors (R), located on the
handlebar, as shown in Figure nº 5.
When both hands are placed on the

RECOVERY TEST:
FITNESS.-
This electronic device is equipped with a
recovery test function. This offers you
the advantage of being able to measure
how long it takes your heart rate to
recover after having finished the
exercise. Upon finishing the exercise
leave your hands on the pulse gauges
and press the “Recovery Test” button,
this will start a one minute countdown.
Only the Time and Pulse rate function
read-outs will remain displayed. The
electronic device will measure your
pulse rate during this minute. The heart
rate recovery time will be displayed on
the Heart rate line.
If, at any time during this minute, you
decide to abandon this test then press
the “Recovery Test” button and this will
take you back to the main screen.
When the minute is up, the electronic
device will work out the difference and
your fitness rating will be displayed up
on the screen: F1, F2,..., F5, F16; where
F1 is the best (fitness “Excellent”) and
F6 the worst (fitness “Very Poor”).
The comparison between the worked
heart rate and the recovery heart rate
provides a fast, simple method of
gauging how fit you are. Your fitness
rating is a guideline that shows you
how fast your heart recovers after
physical exertion. If you exercise
regularly then you will see your fitness
rating improve.
