Contact Heart Rate Sensors
Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors send your heart rate signals to the Console. The CHR sensors are the stainless steel parts of the Handlebars.
Touse,putyourhandscomfortablyaroundthesensors.Besurethatyourhandstouchboththetopandthebottomofthesensors.Holdrm,but
not too tight or loose. Both hands must make contact with the sensors for the Console to detect a pulse. After the Console detects four stable pulse
signals, your initial pulse rate will be shown.
Once the Console has your initial heart rate, do not move or shift your hands for 10 to 15 seconds. The Console will now validate the heart rate.
Manyfactorsinuencetheabilityofthesensorstodetectyourheartratesignal:
Movement of the upper body muscles (including arms) produces an electrical signal (muscle artifact) that can interfere with pulse detection. Slight
hand movement while in contact with the sensors can also produce interference.
Calluses and hand lotion may act as an insulating layer to reduce the signal strength.
Some Electrocardiogram (EKG) signals generated by individuals are not strong enough to be detected by the sensors.
Theproximityofotherelectronicmachinescangenerateinterference.

Remote Heart Rate Monitor
MonitoringyourHeartRateisoneofthebestprocedurestocontroltheintensityofyourexercise.ContactHeartRate(CHR)sensorsareinstalledto
send your heart rate signals to the Console. The Console can also read telemetry HR signals from a Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter that oper-
atesinthe4.5kHz-5.5kHzrange.
Note: The heart rate chest strap must be an uncoded heart rate strap from Polar Electro or an uncoded POLAR® compatible model. (Coded
POLAR® heart rate straps such as POLAR® OwnCode® chest straps will not work with this equipment.)
If you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, consult your doctor before using a wireless chest strap or other
telemetric heart rate monitor.
The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference only.
Chest Strap
Using the heart rate transmitter chest strap lets you monitor your heart rate at any time during your workout.
Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short
of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the
machine’s computer for reference purposes only.
To put on your chest strap:
1. Adjustthestraplengthtotsnuglyandcomfortablyagainstyourskin.Securethestraparoundyourchest,justbelowthechestmuscles,and
buckle it.
2. Lift the transmitter off your chest and moisten the two Grooved Electrode Areas on the back.
3. Checkthatthewetelectrodeareasarermlyagainstyourskin.
The transmitter will send your heart rate to the machine’s receiver and display your estimated Beats Per Minute (BPM).
Always remove the transmitter before you clean the chest strap. Clean the chest strap regularly with mild soap and water, and thoroughly dry it.
Residual sweat and moisture may keep the transmitter active and drain the battery in the transmitter. Dry and wipe clean the transmitter after each
use.
Note: Do not use abrasives or chemicals such as steel wool or alcohol when you clean the chest strap, as they can damage the electrodes
permanently.
IftheConsoledoesnotdisplayaheartratevalue,thetransmittermaybeatfault.Checkthatthetexturedcontactareasonthecheststrapare
making contact with your skin. You may need to lightly wet the contact areas. If no signal appears or you need further assistance, call your Nautilus
Representative.
Before discarding a chest strap, remove the battery. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations and/or at approved recycling
centers.

The Heart Rate table is an estimate of what Heart Rate Zone (HRZ) is effective to burn fat and improve your cardiovascular system. Physical condi-
tions vary, therefore your individual HRZ could be several beats higher or lower than what is shown.

you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will burn.
The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your optimal target rate may be
higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.

Interval Training workouts
AnIntervalTrainingworkoutinvolvesadjustingyourworkoutintensityforspeciclengthsoftimetoraiseandloweryourbreathingrate,heartrate
and calorie burn. This form of workout allows you to burn more calories than a standard workout in a shorter period of time. Using the Calorie Burn
Rate display, you can adjust the intensity of your workout quickly to achieve your goals.
TheBowexMaxTrainer® cardio machine combines 8 “ACTIVE” and 8 “REST” segments to create an Interval workout. During an “ACTIVE”
segment, push yourself to a level of high calorie burn that can be repeated for the 8 segments. Then during the “REST” segments, allow yourself
todecreasetheintensityandprepareforthenext“ACTIVE”segment.Theseextremechangesinintensity,alongwithpushingyourbodytoward

IntervalTrainingworkoutsprovidevariety,helpminimizeoveruseinjuries(thatsometimesoccurfromdoingonlySteadyStateworkouts),maximize
calorieburnandimprovetness.
TheBowexMaxTrainer® cardio machine is designed to cushion your joints and muscles, and both Steady State and Interval Training workouts
should feel much more comfortable than walking or running outside on a hard surface or a treadmill.

Exercise on this machine requires coordination and balance. Be sure to anticipate that changes in speed and resistance level can
occur during workouts, and be attentive in order to avoid loss of balance and possible injury.
The Static Handlebars can also be used to add stability and allow you to focus the workout more on your legs.
Mounting and Dismounting Your Machine
Care should be used when mounting or dismounting the machine.
Be aware that the Pedals and the Handlebars are connected and when either of these parts move the other does as well. In order to
avoid possible serious injury, grasp the Static Handlebars to steady yourself.
Be sure there is nothing under the Pedals or in the Air Resistance Fan before moving anything on the machine.
Tomountyourtnessmachine:
1. Move the Pedals until the one nearest to you is in the lowest position.
2. Grasp the Static Handlebars under the Console Button Assembly.
3. Steadying yourself with the Static Handlebars, step up onto the lowest Pedal and place your other foot onto the opposite Pedal.
Note: "Bottomed out” is when the User is unable to start a workout because the Pedals will not move. If this occurs, safely grasp the Static
Handlebars and apply your weight to the heel of the higher foot. While still grasping the Static Handlebar, lean back slightly applying
more weight onto the heel. Once the Pedals begin to move, resume your intended workout.

Start to work out and hold the Heart Rate Sensors. The workout starts with a Target Burn Rate that increases with each column. Safely keep your
current Burn Rate in the Target Burn Rate Range, increasing your heart rate. The Target Burn Rate continues to increase automatically until your

you reach the Test Zone, the machine holds the Burn Rate steady for 3 minutes. This lets you reach a stable condition (where your heart rate
becomes steady). At the end of the 3 minutes, the Console measures your heart rate and the power output. These numbers, along with information
about your age and weight, are computed to produce a “Fitness Score”.

The SMART MAX Interval program is the MAX Interval Workout Program with the Console shifting the resistance level for the User. To get the User
into the Target Burn Rate Range, the Console will adjust the resistance level based on the current RPM.
During a workout, the Console attempts to coach the User into the selected Target Burn Rate range. If the User is above the Target Burn Rate, the
Console will decrease the Resistance Level. If the User is below the Target Burn Rate, the Console will increase the Resistance Level.
The Time Intervals and Burn Rate levels can be customized.
To start a Workout Program:
1. Stand on the machine.
2. Push the PROGRAMS button until you select the desired Workout Program.
3. Push the START/ENTER button to begin the selected Workout Program.
4. When done with your workout, stop pedaling and push PAUSE/END to pause the workout. Push the PAUSE/END button again to end the
