2. RO L L I N G H I L L S
Working out using an elliptical trainer is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and tness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you should not get out of breath during the workout. You must, for example, be able to speak and not just pant while pedaling. You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic tness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing the energy spent by the body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily, at rst 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour.

This program changes the effort levels during your workout. The display shows the program and the changes in effort. You can choose a prole to your liking by pushing the ROLLING HILLS key repeatedly or with arrow keys. These programs can be saved in the memory of the meter.

This program changes the heart rate level during your workout. The display shows the program and the changes in TARGET HR. You can choose a prole to your liking by pushing the HRC INTERVAL key repeatedly or with arrow keys. These programs can be saved in the memory of the meter.

4. TA RG E T H R

This program allows you to pR ESET your pulse level, i.e. the resistance is regulated so that your pulse remains at the requested level. If the pulse tends to rise, resistance is reduced automatically and vice versa. The set value can be changed also during the workout. These programs can be saved in the memory of the meter.

5. R E S E T

Press for 2 seconds, R ESETs all values.

6. ENTER

You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed and low resistance, because for an overweight person strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As tness improves, resistance and pedaling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise efciency can be measured by monitoring the pulse. The pulse meter helps you monitor your pulse easily during exercise, and thus to ensure that the exercise is sufciently effective but not over-strenuous.

Exercise in different pulse ranges affects the body in different ways. For example, exercise of long duration within a pulse range that is about 50-60 % of the maximum pulse burns fat, or helps you lose weight, whereas exercise in a range that is about 70-80 % of the maximum develops the heart and respiratory system, and overall endurance, i.e. it improves your condition.

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

Tunturi_c6_ohjekirja 6

with the elastic belt, 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.
REM A R K S O N T E LE M E T R I C M EA S U R E ME N T
MAINTENANCE The equipment requires very little maintenance. Check, however, from time to time that all screws and nuts are tight. Clean the equipment with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents.

NOTE ! NOTE !

Never remove the protective covers.
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 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 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 eld around them which will cause problems in heart rate measurement.

ERROR C O D E S

The brake forms a magnetic eld which may damage the mechanism of a watch or the magnetic identication tape of a credit or cash card if they come into immediate contact with the magnets. Never attempt to detach or remove the magnet of the magnetic brake. If you notice a malfunction during use, contact the dealer. Always give the model and serial number of your device, please state also the nature of the problem conditions of use and purchase date. In spite of continuous quality control, individual defects and malfunctions may occur in individual components. It is in most cases unnecessary to take the whole equipment for repair, as it is usually sufcient to replace the defective part. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

The device is easy to move by pushing along on the integrated transport wheels. Tilt the device from the front and push along the oor on the wheels at the front support. To prevent malfunctioning of the equipment, store in a dry place with as little temperature variation as possible, protected from dust. DIMENSIONS Length.. Width.. Height..

rate doesnt increase with added effort. If you dont 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:

Cut the seat's packaging lock. EXERCISING Rowing is a very effective form of exercise. In addition to strengthening the heart and improving circulation, it develops the various groups of large muscles: the back, the abdomen, the arms, the shoulders as well as the pelvis and the legs. Rowing also develops muscular flexibility without exertion of joints, and it is a recommended form of exercise for those who suffer from pains in the neck and shoulder area. Working out using a rowing machine is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the bodys maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its oxygen-uptake capacity. Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but you should not get out of breath during the workout. You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved, simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing the energy spent by the body. This is why it is always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily - at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour. You should start slowly and at low resistance, because strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and speed can be increased gradually. Short sequences at heavy load increase maximum strength and muscular mass, longer sequences at a lighter load trim the body and develop stamina. First find your maximum heart rate i.e. where the
50-60 % of maximum heart-rate
Also suitable for weight-watchers, convalescents and those who havent 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. USE

ADJUSTING RESISTANCE

You can increase or decrease resistance by turning the adjuster knob on the front frame. Turn the adjustment knob clockwise (+ direction) to increase resistance and counterclockwise (- direction) to decrease resistance. The scale above the knob (1-8) helps you find and reset a suitable resistance.
TELEMETRIC HEART RATE MEASUREMENT
The console has a heart rate receiver compatible with Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar uncoded heart rate belts for 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. Attach the transmitter and adjust the flexible belt to an appropriate tightness below chest level so that the electrodes are in contact with the skin during exercise. 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 heartrate 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. 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.

ROWING MOTION

Tighten the footstraps. Take a grip on the bar and start the rowing stroke by leaning slightly forward, with the knees bent and the arms straight. Push yourself backwards straightening your back and your legs simultaneously. Continue the movement until you lean slightly backwards and flex your armsat the same time. Return to the starting position, lean forward and straighten your arms.

BICEPS (ELBOW FLEXORS)

You can develop the biceps while rowing by taking an undergrasp of the bar or in the following way: grasp the bar from underneath, keep your knees straight and your feet under the footstraps. Begin the movement with your arms straight. Bend your arms. You can also develop your biceps by standing in front of the device, grasping either over or under the bar and bending your arms.
