6. whereas exercise in a range that is about 70 80 of the maximum develops the heart and respiratory system and overall endurance i e improves your condition If you don t know your maximum pulse rate you can use the following formulae as a guideline WOMEN 226 AGE MEN 220 AGE However it is advisable to make sure by consulting your doctor For example to lose weight a 50 year old man should exercise at a resistance and pedalling speed that raise his pulse to about 85 105 beats min NOTE WHEN MEASURING YOUR PULSE If the sensor does not immediately start measuring your pulse or if the earlobe is cold rub the earlobe with the fingers to speed up circulation Physiological differences between different people may also cause disturbances in pulse measurement In these cases try measuring on the inside surface of the ear or on the tip of your finger If measuring disturbances appear while pedalling test the functioning of the sensor while stationary Strong unintentional swaying while pedalling may also disturb measurement If pulse values rise above 150 beats min earlobe measurement may be affected by the speeding up of circulation Sometimes a strong light source e g a fluorescent tube in the immediate vicinity of the user may cause disturbances in pulse measurement In this case test the functioning of the sensor by turning the ear sensor the other way round on the earlobe Pulse reading can also be affected if

8. ING THE EQUIPMENT Parents or others responsible for children should note that children s natural playfulness and curiosity may lead to situations and behaviour for which the cycle is not designed If children are allowed to use the cycle they should be supervised and taught to use the cycle properly keeping in mind the child s physical and mental development and their personality The exercise cycle is not a toy Before you start using the cycle make sure that it functions correctly in every way Do not use a faulty device In heavy or long term use the machine may shed dust or oil It is therefore advised to place the machine on a protective base Only one person may use the cycle at a time Hold the handlebar for support when getting on or off the cycle Wear appropriate clothing and shoes when exercising Do not use the cycle when the protective covers are not in place Do not attempt any servicing or adjustment other than those described in this manual The given service instructions must be followed carefully The equipment is not recommended for persons weighing over 110 kg THE FIGURES REFERRED TO IN THE TEXT ARE IN THE BACK FOLD Assemble the cycle as follows left right front and back are ASS EMBLY as seen from the exercising position Unpack the cycle and check that all the following parts MOUNTING THE REAR SUPPORT are in the package Slip a flat object such as a piece of wood under the cycle
