WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF

TUNTURI EXERCISING! Your choice shows that you really want to invest in your well being and condition; it also shows you really value high quality and style. With Tunturi Fitness Equipment, you’ve chosen a high quality, safe and motivating product as your training partner. Whatever your goal in training, we are certain this is the training equipment to get you there. You’ll find information about using your exercise equipment and what makes for efficient training at Tunturi’s website at WWW.TUNTURI. COM. EXERCISING 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 fi 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 fi 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 fi rst 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour. 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 fitness improves, resistance and pedaling speed can be increased gradually. Exercise efficiency 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 sufficiently effective but not over-strenuous. Start your workout with slow tempo and low resistance. Gradually increase tempo and resistance according to your own condition. Keep your head up and neck long in order to avoid stress on your neck, shoulders and back. Keep also your back straight. Make sure that your feet are centered on the foot pedals and that your hips, knees, ankles and toes are facing forward. Keep your body weight centered over your lower body regardless of whether you lean forward or stand upright. Stop your workout by gradually decreasing tempo and resistance. Don’t forget to stretch afterwards. To strengthen cardiovascular system, maintain low resistance but high tempo. Exercising with higher resistance and slow tempo strengthens correspondingly your back and hips. HEART RATE No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best results by training at the right level of effort, and the best measure is your own heart rate. The CF30 meter has a heart rate receiver compatible with Polar equipment, so you can also use Polar uncoded heart rate transmitter belts for heart rate measurement. NOTE! If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please consult a physician before using a heart rate transmitter belt. 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. 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. 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- CF30_RD_16_002.indd 4 21.8.2007 13:25:07GB

CF30 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. 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 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. HAND GRIp pULSE MEASUREMENT (HGp-VERSION) Pulse is measured by sensors in the handlebars. Pulse is measured when the user of CF30 is touching both sensors simultaneously. Reliable pulse measurement requires that the skin is constantly touching the sensors and that the skin is slightly moist. Too dry or too moist skin weakens the reliability of hand pulse measurement.

HEART RATE IN TRAINING

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:

The formula gives an average value, 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. CONSOLE BUTTONS

The selection dial functions in two ways: A) Rotating the dial (+ / -). By rotating the dial clockwise, you can scroll the menus to the right, and increase values or resistance. By rotating the dial counter-clockwise, you can scroll the menus to the left, and decrease values or resistance. B) Pressing the dial (ENTER). By pressing the dial, you can accept the selection you made when rotating the dial.

3. Training is paused for a maximum of 4 minutes

by pressing the START/STOP button. Pressing the button again allows you to continue the paused training session using the previous training data.

4. Entering training targets (time, distance, energy,

heart rate limit) is possible only in the STOP mode (not during training).

5. If you don’t want to change your user data every

time you start training, press START/STOP to skip user data editing. You’ll enter to the training in Manual mode.

6. This equipment cannot be used for therapeutic

7. Energy consumption is calculated based on

average values. The energy expenditure is displayed in kilocalories. To convert this into joules, use the formula: 1 Kcal = 4.187 KJ.

8. If you are training with heart rate measurement

CF30 while training meter will give alarm beeps.

9. Preset programs are divided into 16 steps.

Duration of the one step depends on the time set for the whole training. If time is not set, duration of one step will be 100 m in distance.

10. If you have set targets to count down, a signal

sounds and training automatically stops when any of target reaches zero. You can restart training by pressing START/STOP

11. Note that recovery index is in relation to the

heart rate frequency in both the beginning and the end of the measurement.

12. In H.R.C program heart rate target ranges (55%,

75% and 90%) are calculated as percent from your age predicted maximum heart rate (calculation formula: maximum heart rate = 220 – age).

13. Automatic adjustment of the resistance during

H.R.C program occurs upwards every 30 seconds and downwards every 15 seconds, if needed.

14. BODY FAT is a personal measurement and the

result is based on average european population values. B.M.I.
