The model EC-3500 is a recumbent type exerciser with a built-in computer designed to allow aerobic exercise conveniently for the purpose of advancing your cardiovascular system, and maintaining and improving physical endurance. You can do aerobic exercise effectively when your pulse rate meets constantly a target pulse rate that is decided under your age, physical strength and purpose. Reclining posture can be changed by adjusting the height of seat. [. . . ] 1) Press the Advance button A and make sure that the "Initial Display" is shown on the screen. If you want to modify the "Age" and/or the "Exercise Time", proceed to 2 and 3 in order. If no modification is needed, proceed to 5. 2) If you want to modify the "Target Pulse Rate" from the automatically preset value, proceed to 3, then to 4.

If you wish to have a higher target pulse rate, modify the upper-limit pulse rate upward, then input the desired target pulse rate. The target pulse rate can be input up to 189 bpm. · How to modify the upper-limit pulse rate 1) Press the mode button until the upper-limit pulse rate (value in the top line) flickers. 2) Input the desired upper-limit pulse rate using the set button + or ­ . · In general, modification of the upper-limit pulse rate is not always recommended because the target pulse rate that is based on [180 - age] would be adequate for effective exercise.
