6. PERSONAL SETTINGS (YOUR DATA)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The personal settings are the prerequisite for calcu-
lating maximum pulse, training zones, and calorie consumption. Ensure 
that you make the personal settings first so that you can fully utilize the 
possibilities offered by the computer. Your personal maximum pulse is 
an important value. You can enter this value into your VDO computer 
if you know it from earlier measurements (e.g. at the doctor‘s office 
or from a performance test). If you do not know it then you can select 
automatic calculation of your maximum pulse.
WARNING: Automatic calculation is based on average values for people 
that are athletic and healthy. The actual value can deviate from this 
average value for people who have not been athletically active for some 
time, or who after illness, are going through a rehabilitation program.
Strictly ensure that you speak with your doctor before starting to train, 
so that he can confirm that training would not be associated with any 
adverse effects.
6.1. PERSONAL SETTINGS WITH MANUAL MAX. PULSE ENTRY
IMPORTANT: A wrong entry can have adverse effects on your health. Ta-
bles providing general information cannot reliably reflect your specific 
training status. Strictly ensure that you speak with your doctor before 
entering your max. pulse manually.
