Pressing CLEAR during a workout stops it immediately, at which point the MESSAGE CENTER displays a summary of the workout, including total time elapsed, total distance traveled, and total calories burned. Pressing CLEAR a second time causes the MESSAGE CENTER to prompt the user for a new workout setup. F DISPLAY LOCK: During a workout, the MESSAGE CENTER alternately displays the number of CALORIES burned and the amount of TIME elapsed. Pressing the DISPLAY LOCK key when the MESSAGE CENTER displays either statistic forces the MESSAGE CENTER to display that statistic continuously throughout the workout. Pressing DISPLAY LOCK again allows the MESSAGE CENTER to resume toggling between both statistics. G CHANGE WORKOUT: Press this key to switch to another workout while a workout is in progress. H COOLDOWN: workouts end automatically in a Cooldown mode, which lowers the intensity level. Press the COOLDOWN key at any desired point during a workout to go immediately into Cooldown mode. In this phase of a workout the body begins to remove lactic acid and other accumulated by-products of exercise, which build up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness. The console automatically adjusts each workout’s Cooldown level according to the individual user’s performance. Each time the user presses the COOLDOWN key, the Cooldown duration shortens by one minute. I WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of intensity in a workout-in-progress. The height of the column is proportional to the level of the intensity. J MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a workout, it displays statistics about the progress of the workout: Level: programmed intensity level. Toggles with Heart Rate. • Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the chest strap or grasping sensors. Toggles with Level. If the on-board computer does not detect a heart rate, only Level is displayed throughout the workout. Distance: the total distance traveled in miles (or kilometers if enabled). Speed: the pedaling speed or rate in miles per hour (or kilometers per hour if enabled). Calories: the number of calories burned since beginning the workout. Toggles with Time. • Time: time elapsed since the start of the workout. Toggles with Calories. 9 If programmed to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER displays any or all of these three values each time the intensity level changes during the workout: Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour. Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work. METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a metabolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest. See Chapter 5, titled Internal Settings for information about enabling the MESSAGE CENTER to display these additional settings. K AEROBICS MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode in which the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts that vary the workload and emphasize different muscle groups during the workout. It can be used with any workout. L REVERSE MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode that alternates five minutes of forward motion with two minutes of reverse motion. It can be used with any workout. M PAUSE: Press this key to pause the current workout. Continue the workout by pressing the PAUSE key again. For more information, see the topic titled Pausing a Workout in Section 4.2, titled Using the Workouts. For more information about Aerobics Mode and Reverse Mode, see the topic Using the Two Workout Modes in Section 4.2, titled, the Using the Workouts. 2.3 The Accessory Tray I Reading Rack The accessory tray (A), which is mounted near the base of the console, provides dual storage trays with space for items such as water bottles, personal stereos, and cell phones. Additionally, an integrated reading rack (B) for supporting a book or magazine is located at the base of the upper panel of the console. (B) 10 3 Heart Rate Monitoring 3.1 The Lifepulse™ Digital Heart Rate Monitoring System The patented Lifepulse system sensors are the built-in heart rate monitoring system on the Life Fitness cross-trainer. For the most accurate reading possible, during a workout: Grasp the sensors (A) firmly. • Hold each sensors at the vertical midpoint. Keep hands steady and in place. The console displays the heart rate within 10 to 40 seconds after the user grasps the sensors. 3.2 The Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Monitoring Chest Strap The Life Fitness cross-trainer is equipped with Polar heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes, pressed against the skin, transfer heart rate signals to the console. These electrodes are attached to a chest strap that the user wears during the workout. The chest strap is optional. To order it, call Li...
