EX80 Plus

1.3 Electrical safety

+ The equipment requires a 220 - 230V / 50 Hertz mains power supply.

+ The equipment should be connected directly to a grounded plug socket only by means of the

power cable supplied. The use of multi-socket adapters or similar is not recommended. Extension

leads must comply with local electrical safety guidelines. Always fully unwind the power cable.

+ The outlet should be secured with a fuse with a minimum value of „16 amperes, slow“.

+ In order to reduce the risk of an electric shock, always unplug the equipment from the mains

socket immediately after your workout, before assembly or dismantling, and before maintenance

or cleaning. Do not pull on the cable.

+ When plugged in, do not leave the equipment unattended at any time. To avoid use by anyone

unfamiliar with the operating instructions, the power cable should be removed when the

equipment is not in use.

+ Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not route the power cable

underneath the equipment or under a carpet or rug, and do not place any objects on top of it.

+ Make no modications to either the power cable or the mains plug.

+ If the power cable or the plug are damaged or defective, contact your authorized contract

partner. Do not use the equipment in the meantime.

+ Do not keep electrical devices (e. g., mobile phones) in close proximity to the console or the

control electronics, otherwise display values (e. g., pulse measuring) could be inaccurate.

1.4 Set-up place

+ The equipment should only be used indoors, in a suciently heated and dry area (ambient

temperature between 10°C and 35°C). The equipment should not be used outdoors or in rooms

with high humidity (over 70%) like swimming pools. The equipment should only be stored in

surroundings with an ambient temperature between 5°C and 45°C.

+ The training room should be well ventilated during training and not be exposed to any draughts.

+ Choose a location in which to place the equipment such that there is enough free space/

clearance to the front, the rear and to the sides of the equipment (at least 1.50 m). Furthermore,

the equipment should not be set up in main entrances or on escape routes.

+ Always keep the power cable away from hot surfaces and grounds and make sure that the cable

is not stuck somewhere or becomes a „trip hazard“.

+ No objects of any type should be inserted into the openings of the equipment.

+ The equipment should be placed on a level and solid surface, any unevenness in the oor should

be leveled out.

+ A oor protective mat / equipment underlay can help to protect high-quality oor coverings

(parquet, laminate, cork, carpets) from dents and sweat and can help to level out slight

unevenness.

4.5 Heart-rate measuring

Pulse measuring via hand sensors

The hand sensors integrated in the handles allow you to determine your heart rate. You can measure

your heart rate by lightly grasping the sensors with both hands at the same time. Blood pressure

changes occur due to the heartbeat. The sensors measure the changes to the electric skin resistance

caused by it. These values are then used to create an average and are displayed on the screen of the

console as a heart rate.

Note:

For some people, the skin resistance change caused by the heart rate is so minimal that the

measurements do not allow for usable values. Strong callus or sweat on the hands may also impair a

correct measurement. In such cases, the heart rate will not be shown at all or only incorrectly.

If the measurement is incorrect or not taken at all, please check if it happens to only one person

or to several people. If the pulse display only does not work in a single case, the equipment is not

defective. In this case, we recommend using a chest strap to achieve a permanently correct heart

rate display.

CAUTION: Your training equipment is not a medical device. Dierent factors may inuence the

accuracy of the heart rate display. The heart rate display only serves as a training aid.

Telemetric heart rate measuring

This elliptical cross trainer is already equipped with a heart rate receiver as standard. Using a chest

strap makes it possible for you to have a wireless heart rate measuring. This optimal and ECG-precise

type of measuring reads the heart rate directly from the skin through a transmitting chest strap. The

chest strap then sends the impulse to the receiver integrated in the console.

Positioning the chest strap and moistening the electrodes:

Place the belt directly below the chest, while the transmitter should be placed on the middle of the

chest. The chest strap should sit comfortably, but not too loose. If the belt is too loose, the contact

to the electrodes may be disrupted or the belt may slip while exercising. The transmitter turns on

automatically once it is put on. In order to allow for a precise measuring, you should moisten the

rubber electrodes. This is best done with a special chest strap contact gel, which is also used for

ultrasound scans.

Note:

If you have not been active in doing sports for a longer period of time, you should rst go to your

physician in order to discuss your training with them. You should also contact your physician in

advance in the event of heart problems, high/low blood pressure and obesity.

Training with heart rate orientation

Heart rate orientation guarantees an extremely eective and healthy training. Through your age

and the following table, you can quickly and easily read and determine the optimal pulse for your

training. An acoustic alarm will sound if your heart rate exceeds the set target heart rate. Which target

heart rate is important for which training goal can be found out in the following.

EX80 Plus

Fat burning (weight management): The main goal here is to burn deposits of fat. In order to

achieve this training goal, a low training intensity (approximately 55% of the maximum heart rate)

and a longer training period are required.

Cardiovascular training (cardio training): The primary goal is to increase stamina and tness

through an improved provision of oxygen through the cardiovascular system. In order to achieve

this training goal, medium intensity (approximately 75% of the maximum heart rate) with a medium

training period is required.

Anaerobic (maximum) load training: The main goal of maximum load training is to improve

recovery after short, intense loads in order to be able to quickly return to the aerobic zone. In order

to achieve this training goal, a high intensity (approximately 90% of the maximum heart rate) with

short, intense load is required, which is followed by a recovery phase in order to prevent muscle

fatigue.

Example:

For a 45-year-old man or woman, the maximum heart rate is 175 (220 - 45 = 175).

• The fat burning target zone (55%) is at approximately 96 beats/min. = (220 - age) x 0.55.

• The cardio target zone (75%) is at approximately 131 beats/min. = (220 - age) x 0.75.

• The maximum heart rate for an anaerobic load training (90%) is at approximately 157 beats/

min. = (220 - age) x 0.9.
