RECOVERY
Pressing the RECOVERY key will start the recovery pulse
measurement at the end of the training unit. Deviations
and your fitness level are calculated from your initial and
final pulse. In case of equal training units, the improve-
ment of the fitness level is a measurement for increased fit-
ness.
As soon as the target values are reached, you can finish
the training session, press the recovery key and rest your
hands on the hand pulse sensors.
In the case of a previous pulse measurement, the display
indicates 00:60 for time, and the current pulse value flash-
es on the PULSE segment display (right). Time count-down
starts from 00:60. Rest your hands on the hand pulse sen-
sors until the count-down has reached >0<.
A value between F1 and F6 is indicated on the display.
F1 is the best and F6 the worst status. Pressing the
RECOVERY key again will finish the function.
Calculation of fitness score
The computer calculates and assess the difference
between the training and recovery heart rate and
the resulting "fitness score" according to the follow-
ing formula:
P1 = Training pulse P2 = Recovery pulse
Score 1 = very good Score 6 = poor
A comparison of the training and recovery heart
rate is a quick and easy way in which to determine
physical fitness. The fitness score is an orientation
value to asses your recovering ability after physical
exercise. Before pressing the recovery heart rate but-
ton and determining your fitness score, you should
train at your own level of intensity for a significant
period of time e.g. 10 minutes. For regular cardio-
vascular training you will discover that your "fitness
score" improves.
Change of batteries
If the display is only slightly illuminated, the batteries must
be changed. The values and default settings of the previ-
ous training session will get lost. The time setting must be
entered again.
Disposal of used batteries and storage bat-
teries
This symbol tells you that batteries and storage
batteries must not be disposed of with the normal
household waste.
The symbols Hg (mercury) and Pb (lead) underneath the
crossed-out rubbish bin also tell you that the battery or
storage battery contains more than 0.0005% mercury or
more than 0.004% lead.
Improper disposal damages the environment and can
