Toe Touch

A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise and a cool-down. Exercise for at least two or preferably three times a week, resting for a day between workouts. After several months, you may increase the frequency to four or five times per week.

WARM-UP

This stage helps to improve the blood circulation and prepares the muscles for your workout. It additionally helps to reduce the risk of injury or cramps. It is recommended to do some stretching exercises as shown here below. Hold each stretching position for approximately 30 seconds.

Never force or jerk yourself into a stretching position - if you feel pain, STOP immediately. Warm-up exercises may also include brisk walking, jogging, jumping jacks, jump rope exercises or running in place.

STRETCHING

Muscles can be stretched more easily when these are warm. This reduces the risk of injury. Do not bounce.

Calf-Achilles Stretch
Inner Thigh Stretch

Remember always to check with your physician before starting any exercise program.

COOL-DOWN

This stage helps to soothe your muscles and your cardiovascular system after your workout. At the end of your workout, reduce the speed and exercise for approximately 5 minutes at this lower speed level. Afterwards, repeat the warm-up exercises as described above.

RECOVERY

With this special function, you can check your hearts recovery rate after a training session. This is a very important indication for the physical condition of your body. Try to improve your recovery rate with regular training sessions. The aim is, to calm down to a normal pulse frequency (frequency, when you are not in motion) as quickly as possible. To check your recovery rate, you need to keep your hands onto the hand pulse-sensors (or keep wearing a chest belt) after your exercise. Now press the button RECOVERY. The computer will start to countdown 60 seconds (figure 17). During this period the computer will constantly measure your heart rate through the hand sensors. After this minute, your recovery rate will be displayed on the display. The range is F1.0 to F6.0 (figure 18), whereby F1.0 is very good and F6.0 is insufficient. Improve your value by intense and regular training! After the recovery function is finished, press RECOVERY again to return to normal operation mode.

BODY FAT

Press this button to start the body fat measurement.

Ux (figure 19) will be displayed. Hold both hands on the handsensors during measurement. Upon pulse is detected the display shows the symbols according to figure 20 to 22. It will last about 8 seconds until the measurement is finished. After the measurement, the BMI (figure 23), the fat % (figure 24) and fat advice symbol (figure 25) will be displayed.

ERROR MESSAGES

“ 1

means, that the contact to the handpulse sensors was not sufficiently for a measurement. The reason for this can be that you have not grasped the two sensors correctly. Start a new measurement with correctly placed hands!

E-1

means, that no heart rate signal has been detected.

E-4

appears, if the fat % or BMI values are too low (<5) or too high (>50).

NOTES

1) This computer has an automatic on/off function so that it switches on when the pedals move or when any button is pressed, and turns into stand-by mode automatically if no signal has been received for approx. 4 minutes.
2) In case of any abnormal functions, disconnect the device from power source and reconnect after some minutes

BUILT-IN RECEIVER

The computer is equipped with a built-in receiver, which can receive the pulse signals measured by a compatible (uncoded/5 kHz, e.g. Skandika chest belt) chest belt wirelessly.

So you can decide, if you want to measure your pulse frequency by the hand sensors or by the chest belt. A chest belt would enable you to exercise without the need to grasp the hand sensors all the time. Make sure, the correct battery is inserted into the chest belt if you want to use this feature.

You may adjust the strap to a comfortable length. However, the electrodes must have contact with your skin in order to measure your heart rate correctly. It may last up to one minute before a correct display can be seen.

Always pay attention to the instruction manual of the chest belt device. In case you grip the hand sensors and wear a chest belt at the same time, the device will prefer the signal from the hand sensors.

The computer can be connected via Bluetooth (frequency: 2.4 GHz) to communicate with the apps iConsole+ or KinoMap.

ICONSOLE+

Activate Bluetooth on your mobile device, download the app „iConsole+“ an install on your iOS- or Android device. You may use the app search function of your mobile device or the following QR code to find the app:

iConsole Global

System requirements:

Android 5.0 or newer with Bluetooth 4.0 iOS 10 or newer with Bluetooth 4.0

BFor Android devices, „unknown sources“ need to be accepted in the device security settings („Settings -> Device security“).

After starting the app, the connection with the training device need to be established via Bluetooth - therefore select „Quick Start“, „Interval“, „Map“:

Once console is connected to smart device via Bluetooth , the console will power off.

In case of mechanical problems use this explosion drawing. All parts are marked with a specific part number in it. Tell us this number in order to replace the respective part (within warranty time this service may be free of charge). If necessary, you may additionally use the free user manual in pdf-format, available on www.skandika.com. You may enlarge the explosion drawing there with a factor up to 500% .
