> Heart Rate Monitoring
All Nautilus ellipticals are equipped with touch heart rate. To use the touch
heart rate feature simply place both hands on the metal handgrip sensors
making sure both your palms are in contact on the front side and your
fingers are in contact on the opposite side (Fig. 5). The NE 2000/ 3000
computer will also receive and display your heart rate using an optional
heart rate transmitter belt. Adjust the belt to fit snuggly, located just below
your chest as shown (Fig. 6).
> Heart Rate Control Programs (NE 2000/ 3000)
The Heart Rate Control Programs are designed to keep you exercising at
exactly your target heart rate. This is done by constantly monitoring your
heart rate through either the touch sensors or optional transmitter belt and
adjusting the resistance level up or down to maintain your target heart rate.
1. To begin the Heart Rate Control Program, select the Heart Rate Program
from the program selection menu and press ENTER to confirm.
2. You will now need to enter age and weight.
3. Your target heart rate will then be displayed. This number is 70% of your
maximum heart rate.
Example: 220 – Age (40) = 180
180 beats per minute is the approximate maximum
heart rate for someone 40 years of age.
180 x 70% = 126
126 beats per minute is the target heart rate
that the computer will keep you working at.
IMPORTANT! The above numbers are general fitness guidelines. You should
consult your physician to establish your ideal target heart rate for your specific condition and fitness
goals.
4. To accept this target heart rate number press ENTER. You can adjust this number using the + and
– keys to select your desired target heart rate.

5. Each program course profile has 50 individual segments. The time you enter is equally divided by
these 50 segments giving you your segment time.
Example: A 25 minute workout would have a segment time of 30 seconds.
> Results Mode
At the completion of your workout the computer will go into a Results Mode. This mode will scroll
through your workout average watts, calories per hour, average heart rate, average speed,
average rpm, total calories, time and distance.
