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 body's 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 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.

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 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. 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.

Please note that your results are in a relation to the pulse level in the beginning of the measurement, and that your results are personal and cannot directly be compared with any other person's results. In order to improve the reliability of recovery pulse measurement, always try to standardize the measurement situation as accurately as possible; start measuring at the same heart rate level as precisely as possible.

4. To switch back to the main display by pressing RESET. The console will also automatically switch to the main display one minute after the completion of the measurement.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

Move the device according to the following instruction, because lifting the cycle incorrectly may strain your back or cause other risk of accidents:

Stand behind the device and grip the rail with one hand and the seat with the other. Tilt the device so that is rests on the transportation wheels. Move the device by wheeling it on transportation wheels. Lower the device onto floor while holding on to the rail and the seat, all the time remaining behind the device.

Transport the equipment with caution over uneven surfaces, for example over a step. The equipment should never be transported upstairs using the wheels over the steps, instead it must be carried. We recommend that you use a protective base when transporting the equipment.

To prevent malfunctioning of the cycle, store in a dry place with as little temperature variation as possible, protected from dust.

MAINTENANCE

● The Ambition requires very little maintenance. Check, however, from time to time that all screws and nuts are tight.
- Clean the cycle with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents.
- Never remove the protective covers.
- Clean the inner surfaces of the rail if necessary so that the seat moves as smoothly and quietly as possible. If necessary, you may

improve the seat movement by adding paraffin to the surface of the rails.

CHANGING BATTERIES

The console gives a warning signal before the change of batteries is due. Remove the battery compartment cover from the back side of the meter and remove old batteries. Place new batteries in the holder (note the direction of the batteries) and reattach the cover. To minimize the strain on the resistance mechanism, we recommend that the resistance adjustment knob is set to position 1 after every training session.

MALFUNCTIONS

Despite continuous quality control, defects and malfunctions caused by individual components may occur in the equipment. In most cases it's unnecessary to take the whole device in for repair, as it's usually sufficient to replace the defective part.
