HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best results 
by training at the right level of effort, and the best 
measure is your own heart rate. 
pULSE MEASUREMENT WITH 
HANDGRIp SENSORS
Hand pulse is measured using the sensors located 
on the handlebars. The sensors measure electric 
impulses, which are formed when the person’s heart 
is beating. Measurement is started by touching both 
handlebar sensors simultaneously. To ensure reliable 
pulse measurement, skin must be slightly moist and 
skin contact with sensors must be continuous. If skin 
is too dry or too wet, the hand pulse measurement 
operation is less reliable. Try to keep your upper 
body and palms relaxed and still. 
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The most reliable heart rate measurement is 
achieved with a telemetric device, in which the 
electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the chest 
transmit the pulses from the heart to the console by 
means of an electromagnetic field. 
NOTE!
 If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please 
consult a physician before using a wireless heart rate 
monitor. 
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, firmly enough so that the 
electrodes remain in contact with the skin while 
exercising, 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 
console up to a distance of about 1 m. 
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 warm up properly to ensure 
accurate heart rate measurement. If there are several 
telemetric heart rate measurement devices next to 
each other, the distance between them should be at 
least 1.5 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 fibers 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 electromagnetic field 
around them, which will cause problems in heart 
rate measurement.
First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the 
rate doesn’t increase with added effort. If you don’t 
know your maximum heart rate, please use the 
following formula as a guide:
220 - AGE
These are average values and the maximum varies 
from person to person. The maximum heart-rate 
diminishes on average by one point per year. If you 
belong to a risk group, ask a doctor to measure your 
maximum heart rate for you. 
We have defined three different heart-rate zones to 
help you with targeted training.
BEGINNER:
 50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents 
and those who haven’t exercised for a long time. 
Three sessions a week of at least a half-hour each 
is recommended. Regular exercise considerably 
improves beginners’ respiratory and circulatory 
performance and you will quickly feel your 
improvement.
TRAINER: 
60-70 % of maximum heart-rate
Perfect for improving and maintaining fitness. Even 
reasonable effort develops the heart and lungs 
effectively, training for a minimum of 30 minutes at 
least three times a week. To improve your condition 
still further, increase either frequency or effort, but 
not both at the same time!
ACTIVE TRAINER: 
70-80 % of maximum heart-rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and 
presupposes long-endurance workouts.
