Speed; Information On Pulse Measuring; With Ear Clip; With Chest Strap - Kettler SATURA E EXT Bedienungsanleitung

Training and operating instructions
Rotation-speed independent mode
(constant performance)
The electromagnetic eddy-current brake regulates the braking tor-
que to the preset performance in case of alternating pedal rates.
Arrows pointing upwards/downwards
(
Rotation-speed independent mode)
If a certain performance cannot be achieved with the rotation
speed (e.g. 600 Watt at 50 pedal rotations), the upward or
downward arrow indicates when faster or slower pedalling is
required.
Rotation-speed dependent mode
(constant braking torque)
The eddy-current brake sets a constant braking torque. Only
pedalling will change the performance.
Calculation of the average values
The calculation is effected per training session.

Information on pulse measuring

The pulse calculation starts when the heart symbol in the display
flashes according to your pulse beat.

With ear clip

The pulse sensor operates with infra-red light and measures the
changes in the light permeability of your skin caused by your pulse
beat. Before fastening the pulse sensor to your ear lob, please rub it
strongly 10 times in order to increase blood circulation.
Avoid interfering impulses.
• Fasten the ear clip carefully at your ear lob and try to find the most
favourable point for sensoring (heart symbol flashes without interruption).
• Do not train directly under strong incidence of light, e.g. neon light,
halogen light, spot light, sunlight.
• Completely avoid any vibrations and wobbling of the ear sensor
including cable. Always fasten the cable with the clip at your clothes
or - even better - at a headband.

GB
With a chest strap
Please refer to the appropriate instructions.

With hand pulse sensors

The contraction of the heart produces an extra-low voltage
that is detected by the hand sensors and evaluated by the
electronic system
• Always grasp the contact surfaces with both hands
• Avoid any jerky grasping
• Hold your hands steady and avoid any contractions and
friction on the contact surfaces.

Malfunction in the training computer
Turn the main switch off and then on again. In case of a mal-
function at the date or time display, change the battery on the
backside of the display panel. (See assembly instructions)

Information on the interface

The training programs "TourConcept", item no. 7926-700,
which is available at your specialist dealer, makes possible to
control this KETTLER device by means of a PC /notebook via
the interface. For further information and for information on

Training Instructions

You can determine whether or not your course of training has
had the desired effects after a few weeks by doing the fol-
lowing:
1. You achieve a certain level of staying power with less car-
diovascular output than before;
2. You achieve a certain level of staying power for a longer
period of time, though with the same cardiovascular out-
put;
3. After achieving a certain level of cardiovascular output,
you recover more quickly than previously.
Standard values for endurance training
Maximum pulse rate: Maximum stress means achieving the
individual maximum pulse rate. The achievable maximum
heart rate depends on the age.
The following rule of thumb applies: The maximum heart rate
per minute equates to 220 pulse beats minus your age.
Example: Age 50 years > 220 - 50 = 170 pulse beats/min
Weight: Another criterion for determining the optimal training
data is the weight. The target specification for stress is 3
Watt/kg weight for men and 2.5 Watt/kg weight for women.
You must also take into consideration that the physical efficien-
cy decreases at the age of 30 and beyond: with men approx.
1% and with women approx. 0.8% per life year.
Example: Man, age 50; weight 75 kg
> 220 - 50 = 170 pulse beats/min maximum pulse
3 Watt x 75 kg = 225 Watt
> Minus "age discount" (20% of 225 = 45 Watt)
> 225 -45 = 180 Watt (target specification in case of stress)

Stress intensity

Stress pulse: The optimal stress intensity is achieved at 65 -
75% (see diagram) of the individual cardiovascular perfor-
mance. This value will change, depending on the age.
