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 C45 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:
220 - AGE
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.
TR AINER
• 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 TIME s a week. To improve your condition
still further, increase either frequency or effort, but
not both at the same time!
ACTIVE TR AINER
• 70-80 % of maximum heart-
rate
Exercise at this level suits only the fittest and
presupposes long-endurance workouts.

KEYS
1. BACK/STOp
Use the BACK/STOP button to navigate back
towards the main menu. During training, you can

BACK/STOP button.
2. ZOOM
Focusing the graphical profile display during
training. Press ZOOM to increase the size of the
displayed profile image (two-, four-, eight- or
sixteenfold). Pressing the key five times restores the
profile image to its original size.
3. TRAINING

menu. The TRAINING menu includes the following
training programs: QUICK START, MANUAL, TARGET
HR, TARGET EFFORT, PROGRAMS, T-RIDE, OWN
TRAINING and FITNESS TEST.
4. USER
Press the USER button to open the USER menu.
The USER menu includes the following functions:
