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
“E 3” will appear on the screen, make
sure that both your hands are placed
on the handlebar sensors (R), Figure
5. If no signal is received after a
further 5 seconds then the screen will
revert to the previously displayed
function.
HAND-GRIP (PULSE) IN-
STRUCTIONS/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 5.
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 5 then the pulse
function will not work.
If a “0” appears on the screen or the
heart symbol does not flash then
make sure that both hands are placed
on the sensors and that the
connectors (54) and (54a) are
connected at the back of the electronic
unit.
F.TEST MEASUREMENTS:
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 (R) and press the “Test”
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, F16;
where F1 is the best (fitness
“Excellent”) and F6 the worst (fitness
“Very Poor”).
Pressing the TEST 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 sensor is
not positioned 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) after you have sto-
pped 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).
If the error code “E2” appears on the
screen, this means that you have
stopped exercising.
