on the meter.
SAVING A pROGRAM
1. End your training session by pressing BACK/STOP.
2. Select SAVE AND EXIT and confirm your selection.
3. Enter a name for the training session and confirm
it using the selection dial.
IMpORTANT! You can only save programs that are
longer than 10 minutes.
IMpORTANT! To save a training session you will need
to select a username.
USING SAVED pROGRAMS
1. Select OWN TRAINING.
2. Select a training session from the list.
3. Select the desired execution method:
A) Replay = repeat a previously saved exercise.
B) Edit = edit the duration of a previously saved
exercise before you start.
C) Race = compete against a previously saved
workout.
NOTE! You can only use programme profiles
created in the Manual function. These profiles
show effort as a constant torque (Nm).
4. Confirm your selection by pressing the selection
dial.
A) Replay = start pedaling to begin the exercise.
You can adjust the effort level with the selection
dial.
B) Edit = select the duration of the exercise with
the selection dial (set the time to 10-180 minutes).
Start pedaling to begin the exercise. You can
adjust the effort level with the selection dial.
C) Race = Using the selection dial, select the race
mode (time: the distance you can pedal in a given
time; or distance: how fast you can cover a given
distance) and confirm your selection using the
selection dial. The display shows a previously
saved program. Start pedalling to begin the race.
The dash line on the display shows whether you
are ahead or behind the benchmark training
session, which is the most recently saved training
session using this program. The distance to the
previously saved session is also displayed: the
previously saved training session is shown with
a light vertical dash line, and your race effort is
shown with a dark vertical dash line.
5. To stop the training session, press the BACK/STOP
button. You can then stop the session by selecting
EXIT, save the session to the memory by selecting
SAVE AND EXIT or continue your training session by
selecting CONTINUE.
FITNESS TEST
The meter uses a multi-step fitness test. The test
begins at a low level of effort, which increases
steadily in accordance with the selected test type.
A multi-step test is a safe and reliable, submaximal
means of measuring a person’s physical fitness
level. The test continues until the test subject has
achieved his or her individual target heart rate (85%
of maximum heart rate). The test requires the use
of a heart rate belt: the meter monitors changes
in the heart rate throughout the test, using the
data to calculate an estimate of the tested person’s
maximum oxygen uptake capacity. The maximum
oxygen uptake capacity is the best measure of a
person’s physical fitness level. After the test, the
meter gives versatile information on your fitness
level: a description and a numerical value (ml/kg/
min).
pREpARING FOR THE TEST
1. Make sure that the data associated with your
username is updated – the meter uses the user data
as a basis for the fitness test.
2. Select FITNESS TEST.
3. Using the selection dial, select the most suitable
fitness category for you:
A) Inactive = no regular exercise, poor physical
condition
B) Active = regular exercise, average or good
physical condition
C) Athletic = active training, good or excellent
physical condition
4. The display shows the appropriate test type for
each fitness category:
A) Step time = duration of different effort levels in
the test
B) First step = initial effort level
C) Step power = effort level of steps (in watts), the
test features several steps
5. Confirm your selection by pressing the selection
dial.
6. If necessary, you can adjust your target heart rate
value using the selection dial. Confirm your settings
using the selection dial.
7. The display informs you that you can stop the test
once you reach the target heart rate for the test.
Start the test by pressing the selection dial.
pERFORMING THE TEST
1. The display shows the selected test step type.
Start pedaling to begin the test. A red diagram that
updates as you progress in the test represents your
heart rate. A discontinuous line in red indicates your
target heart rate.
2. Once the target heart rate level has been
achieved, the meter gives an audio signal and
displays a message. We recommend that you end
the test here, unless you are relatively fit. If you
have set your target heart rate correctly (that is,
if you have calculated your maximum heart rate
accurately enough), continuing the test beyond this
point will not increase the accuracy of the result. If
you overestimate your maximum heart rate, your
