[. . . ] The monitor will switch itself off automatically if the unit remains motionless for 3 minutes.

The screen will switch itself on automatically as soon as you start exercising or by pressing any key. [. . . ] NOTE: If, after 15 seconds, the sensor does not detect a signal then the error code This function counts up or down in steps of one calorie, up to a maximum of 999 calories. Pressing the DOWN key for more than two seconds will reset all of the values, except those relating to personal information. Press the MODE key to start the small CAL (CALORIE) window "E 3" will appear on the screen, make sure that both your hands are placed on the handlebar sensors (R), Fig. If no signal is received after a further 5 seconds then the screen will revert to the previously displayed function. On this model the pulse rate is measured by placing both hands on the sensors (R), located on the handlebar, as shown in Fig. When both hands are placed on the sensors the heart symbol on the righthand side of the screen, marked PULSE, will begin to flash and after a few seconds a heart rate reading will be displayed. If a "0" appears on the screen or the heart symbol does not flash then make sure that both hands are placed on the sensors and that the connectors (32) are connected at the back of the electronic unit.

After finishing the exercise leave your hands on the pulse sensors (R) and press the "RECOVERY Fitness Test" button and this will start a one minute countdown. Only the Time and Pulse rate function read-outs will remain displayed.
