BMR-FAT-BMI-PROGRAM,

Please observe the following instructions for your own safety:

• The training device must be set up on an appropriate and firm surface.
• Inspect the connections for firm fitting before initial operation and additionally after approximately six operation days.
• In order to prevent injuries caused by wrong stress or overstress, the training device may only be used in accordance with the instructions.
• It is not recommended to permanently set up the device in humid rooms due to the resulting corrosion development.
• Assure yourself regularly that the training device functions properly and that it is in duly condition.
• The operator is responsible for the safety controls, which have to be carried out on a regular and proper basis.
• Defective or damaged parts must be exchanged immediately. Only use original KETTLER spare parts.

• The device may not be used until after repairs are completed.

• The safety level of the device can only be maintained provided that it is regularly inspected for damage and wear and tear.

For Your Safety:

• Before starting the training, check with your GP that you are fit for training with this device. The doctor's findings should form the basis for the setup of your training programme. Incorrect or excessive training may damage your health.
• Systems to monitor your heart rate can be imprecise. Excessive training may result in serious damage to your health or death. Should you feel dizzy or weak, stop the training immediately.

Switching on the unit

After switching on the unit by pressing a key or by pedalling, you hear 3 beeps and all display segments lighten up for 3 seconds.

Press QUICK START.

Note: If training stops for 4 minutes and if no data have been entered, the sleep mode is being activated. This sleep mode can be ended by pedalling or by pressing any key.

Interruption

Training can be interrupted by briefly pressing the RESET key. The training mode is continued by pressing the RESET key again.

The text area displays "MEASUREMENT".

After the measurement the body fat content is displayed in % and the BMI and BMR are displayed.

(The display alternates every 4 seconds between body fat content in % , BMI and BMR.)

RECOVERY (Recovery heart rate measurement)

Press the RECOVERY key. Thus the measurement of the heart rate recovery is started after or during training.

After 1 minute the display shows the level of recovery. There are levels F1-F6, whereas F1 is the best and F6 is the worst.

Activation of the device

If you activate the device, a signal is emitted during the segment test.

Presetting

A short signal is emitted, if you reach a presetting like time, distance and KJoule/kcal.

Exceeding of maximum pulse

If the set maximum pulse is exceeded by one pulse beat, two short signals are emitted for the time of exceedance.

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 following formula:

$$ \operatorname {S c o r e} (F) = 6 - \left(1 0 x (\frac {P 1}{P 1} - P 2)\right) ^ {2} $$

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 assess your recovering ability after physical exercise. Before pressing the recovery heart rate button 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 cardiovascular training you will discover that your "fitness score" improves.

Possibilities for Pulse Measurement

The pulse measurement starts as soon as the heart in the display blinks in time with your pulse beat.

With hand pulse

An extra-low voltage caused by the contractions of your heart is registered by the hand sensors and evaluated by the electronics assembly of the device.

Always grab the contact faces with both hands.
- Avoid jerky grasping.
- Hold your hands calmly and avoid contractions and rubbing on the contact faces.

Faults in the Training Computer

If the computer display is not functioning correctly, please remove the power supply and switch off the machine.

For Your Safety:

Before beginning your program of exercise, consult your doctor to ensure that you are fit enough to use the equipment. Base your program of exercise on the advice given by your doctor. Incorrect or excessive exercise may damage your health.

Training Instructions

This device has particularly been designed and developed for leisure time sportsmen. It is excellently suited for cardiovascular training.

The training methodically has to be organised on the principles of stamina training. This will predominantly cause changes and adaptations of the cardiovascular system. This includes the reduction of the resting pulse frequency and of the load pulse.

This gives the heart more time for filling the ventricles and for the blood circulation of the cardiac musculature (through the coronary vessels). Moreover, depth of breathing and the volume of air that can be breathed in (vital capacity) are increased. Further positive changes take place in the metabolic system. In order to achieve these positive changes, the training has to be planned according to certain guidelines.

Planning and control of your training

The basis for your training planning is your current physical fitness condition. Your family doctor can diagnose your personal fitness by means of an exercise tolerance test, which will constitute the basis for your training planning. If you have not undergone an exercise tolerance test, high training exertion and/or overtraining must be avoided in all cases. The following rule should be considered in your planning: stamina training is controlled via the scope of exertion as well as via the level / intensity of exertion.

Regarding exertion intensity

The intensity of exertion should preferably be checked in your fitness training via your heart's pulse rate. The maximum heart rate per minute of >220 minus age must not be exceeded. The optimum training pulse is determined by age and training target.

Training target: fat burning/weight reduction

The optimum pulse frequency is calculated using the empirical formula (220 - age) × 0.65 .

Advice: fat burning for energy supply only gains significance after a minimum training period of 30 minutes.

Training target cardio-vascular fitness:

The optimum pulse frequency is calculated using the empirical formula (220 - age) × 0.75 .

The intensity is predetermined in your training by means of the braking levels, ranging from 1-16. As a beginner, you should avoid too high braking level settings for your training, as this will quickly lead to exceeding the recommended pulse rate range. Start by using a low braking level setting and then approach your optimum training pulse step by step. Do not forget to regularly check during your fitness training whether you still range within the intensity area according to the above stated recommendations.

Sports physicians consider the following load factors to be positive for fitness:

Frequency	Duration
daily	10 min
2-3 times weekly	20-30	min
1-2 times weekly	30-60	min

Beginners should not start with training units of 30 to 60 minutes.

A beginner training could be organised as follows during the first four weeks:

Training frequency	Extent of training session
1st week
3 times a week	2 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 2 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 2 minutes of training
2nd week
3 times a week	3 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 3 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 2 minutes of training
3rd week
3 times a week	4 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 4 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 3 minutes of training
4th week
3 times a week	5 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 4 minutes of training Break of 1 minute for physical exercises 4 minutes of training

In order to have a personal training documentation, you can enter the training values achieved in the performance table.

Prior to and after every training unit gymnastic exercises lasting approx. 5 minutes serve the warming up and/or cooling down. There should be a day without training between two training units, if you later on prefer to train three times a week for 20 - 30 minutes each. Otherwise nothing can be said against a daily training.
