 70-80 % of maximum heart 

rate 
Exercise at this level suits only the fi ttest and 
presupposes long-endurance workouts. 

Rest is as important as exercise in a fi tness program. 
If you for instance exercise conscientiously for 
three weeks, it’s good to make the following week a 
little lighter. 

The hand grip pulse measurement 

functions with the transmitter box switch in 

 

position. If you wish to use the Polar belt for heart 
rate measurement, switch the hand grip pulse 
to

 position. Pulse is measured by the hand 

grip sensors in the handlebars. Pulse is measured 
when the user of E6R is touching both sensors 
simultaneously. Pulse measurement requires that 
the skin is constantly touching the sensors and 
that the skin is slightly moist. 

If you use 

a heart rate controlled exercise or if the accuracy 
of heart rate information is important to you, we 
recommend heart rate measurement with the Polar 
belt; unlike with the heart rate belt, the accuracy 
of pulse measurement may vary considerably from 
person to person.

This equipment has a built in pulse receiver, 
which is compatible with a Polar telemetric pulse 
transmitter. If you want to measure your heart 
rate this way during your workout, moisten the 
grooved electrodes on the transmitter belt with 
saliva or water. Fasten the transmitter just below 
the chest with the elastic belt, fi rmly enough so 
that the electrodes remain in contact with the 
skin while pedaling, but not so tight that normal 
breathing is prevented. If you wear the transmitter 
and belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt slightly 
at the points where the electrodes touch the shirt. 
The transmitter automatically transmits the heart 
rate reading to the meter up to a distance of about 
1 meter. The heart rate value is displayed in the 
meter. Follow your heart rate during the training.

If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart 
rate reading will not appear on the display. If the 
electrodes are dry, they must be moistened again. 
Allow the electrodes to warm up properly to 
ensure accurate heart rate measurement. If there 
are several telemetric heart rate measurement 
equipments next to each other, the distance 

between them should be at least 

5 m. Similarly, 

if there is only one receiver and several transmitters 
in use, only one person with a transmitter should 
be within transmission range. The transmitter is 
switched to an active state only when it is being 
used for measurement. Sweat and other moisture 
can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state 
and waste battery energy. Therefore it is important 
to dry the electrodes carefully after use.

When selecting training attire, please note 
that some fi bers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, 
polyamide) create static electricity, which may 
prevent reliable heart rate measurement.

Please note that a mobile phone, television and 
other electrical appliances form an electro-magnetic 
fi eld around them, which will cause problems in 
heart rate measurement.

Allows you to set your effort level with the arrow 
keys during the workout. 

This program allows you to preset your effort level 
(in watts), i.e. pedaling effort is independent of 
pedaling speed and remains exactly at the preset 
level. As the pedaling speed increases the resistance 
is reduced and vice versa. The set value can be 
changed also during the workout. The display 
shows the effort level and the changes in effort. 
You can choose the effort level to your liking with 
arrow keys.
