3. Begin exercising and your heart
rate will be displayed in the PULSE
window, when you reach the selected
value the monitor will beep to advise
you that you have reached the set
pulse rate.
NOTE:
If, after 15 seconds, the sensor does
not detect a signal then the error code

HAND-GRIP (PULSE)
INSTRUCTIONS/USE
On this model the pulse rate is
measured by placing both hands on
the sensors (R), located on the
handlebar, as shown in figure nº 3.
When both hands are placed on the
sensors the heart symbol on the right-
hand side of the screen, marked
PULSE, will begin to flash and after a
few seconds a heart rate reading will
be displayed.
If both hands are not placed correctly
as shown in figure nº 3 then the pulse
function will not work.
If a «0» appears on the screen or the
heart symbol does not flash, make
sure you have both hands on the
sensors and that the connectors are
connected where the main post
attaches to the body, see the
assembly instruction booklet.
F. TEST MEASUREMENT 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. After finishing the
exercise leave your hands on the
pulse sensors and press the
«Recovery Test: Fitness» button and
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.
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, F6»;
where «F1» is the best (fitness
«Excellent») and F6 the worst (fitness
«Very Poor»).
Pressing the RECOVERY button will
take you back to the main screen,
where the functions will be in the
same mode as when the TEST began.
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.
The test will not work if the sensors
are not connected correctly or if the
error code «E1» appears on the
screen.
The TEST will not work if you do not
have both hands placed on the hand-
grip sensors (R) or if you stop doing
the exercise.
If the error code «E1» is shown on the
screen then this means that you do
not have your hands positioned
correctly on the hand-grip sensors (R).
