RECOVERY TEST Program
The Recovery Test shows how quickly your heart returns from an exercise state to a more restful state. The Recovery
Score equals your heart rate at the beginning of the test minus your heart rate at the end of the test. The higher the
Recovery Test score value, the faster your heart rate returns to a restful state. You must hold the heart rate sensors during
the test. You cannot use the Recovery program during the BMI program.
Note: If the computer does not sense a pulse signal, "NO PULSE" shows in the Display. If "DETECTED FAIL" shows on the
Display, push the COOL DOWN button again. Make sure your hands firmly hold the heart rate sensors, or correctly
attach the Chest Transmitter.
Starting the Recovery Test:
1. Push the COOL DOWN button while your heart rate shows on the Display. The Display shows "HOLD SENSOR".
2. Continue holding the heart rate sensors. Stop exercising. The Display shows 01:00.
3. Time counts down to 00:00 on the Display. Your heart rate and any changes also show on the Display for the
entire minute.
4. When the clock reaches 00:00, the computer shows your Recovery score and a grade from F1.0 to F6.0.
Helpful Tip: Wait until you see your heart rate on the Display before pushing COOL DOWN to begin the test. Keep your
heart rate steady for 3 minutes before pushing the COOL DOWN button.
