•
Consult your physician before engaging in any vigorous
exercise. Do not use the heart rate programs until
authorized by your physician.
SmartRate
Know your heart rate and your physician-recommended
according to several physiological factors and may not
correspond directly with Diagram 7.
Heart rate and SmartRate® features are available when
you wear the chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive
handrail grips.
Note: The EFX5.31 does not have touch-sensitive handrail

•
The calculation used for the heart rate target zone is:
(220 minus your age) multiplied by a percent.
•
•
After you put on the chest strap, face the display console
for a few seconds. This allows the receiver in the console
to recognize the signal from the chest strap.
For example:
Low range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 55%
If Hr appears in the display, the EFX is detecting a signal,
but has not yet determined your heart rate. Make sure the
chest strap is positioned properly around your chest and
against your skin.
High range: (220 minus your age) multiplied by 85%
Refer to Table 1 in Using SmartRate.

2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The strap
should feel snug, not restrictive. Refer to Diagram 9.
Wearing a Chest Strap
During a workout, the heart rate features appear on the
display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an accurate
reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct contact with
your skin.
1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water
Refer to Diagram 8.
Diagram 9: Adjust chest strap
Note: Do not use deionized water. It does not have the
proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical impulses.
3. Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies
horizontally across your chest, and is centered in the
middle of your chest. Refer to Diagram 10.
Diagram 8: Moisten chest strap

Usually, the concentration of salts in a person's perspiration
provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the
receiver inside the display console. However, some people,
because of body chemistry or erratic heart beats cannot use
the touch-sensitive heart rate feature on the EFX. A chest
strap may provide better results.
Using the Heart Rate
Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips
While exercising on the EFX5.35 or EFX5.33, you must
grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips for a minimum of
five to ten seconds to transmit your heart rate to the display.
Refer to Diagram 11.
Important: While exercising, do not grasp the touch-
sensitive handrail grips and wear the chest strap at the
same time. The touch-sensitive handrail grips override the
signals from the chest strap transmitter. If used together,
inconsistent readings may occur.
Using SmartRate
The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain your
heart rate in the target zone best suited to your specific
needs. All 7 LEDs may light during a workout. When the EFX
detects a heart rate, a single LED blinks and indicates the
zone that your heart rate is in.

EFX, if you start in a position with one foot pedal
forward, a stride is completed when you move the rear
foot pedal all the way forward while the other foot pedal
moves to the rear.

muscular and aerobic endurance. It has a warmup period
followed by gradually increasing CrossRamp inclines and
resistance.
The Hill Climb Program, available by pressing the VARIETY
key, has preprogrammed CrossRamp settings in a fixed
pattern. It is designed to increase muscle tone, cardio-
conditioning, and endurance over several weeks.
The program consists of alternating forward and backward
pedaling movements that focus on working the thigh and calf
muscle groups. Display prompts appear indicating when to
reverse pedal direction at select intervals: 25%, 50%, and
75% of program completion.
During the warmup period, the display prompts you to
maintain a specific stride rate which increases muscle
flexibility and raises your heart rate. When the program
begins, maintain the recommended stride rate of 140 strides
per minute to improve cardiopulmonary conditioning and
muscular endurance. The ramp incline varies throughout the
program every three minutes. When you complete the
program, a 3-minute, cool-down period begins.
During your exercise session, you can change your strides
per minute and override the CrossRamp or resistance
settings using the arrow keys.
The CrossRamp and resistance are preset based on your

HEART
RATE
The Basic HRC Program, available by pressing the HEART
RATE key, adjusts the CrossRamp to maintain your heart rate
within two beats per minute of the target heart rate while you
exercise. To use this program, you must enter your age and
wear a chest strap or grasp the touch-sensitive handrail
grips so your heart rate can be monitored throughout the
session.
Note: When your target heart rate is achieved or the
3-minute period elapses, the warm-up period ends and
the program begins.
•
The program sets the target heart rate as a percentage of
220 minus your age. Changing the target heart rate your
stride rate or CrossRamp affects the unit’s ability to
maintain your target heart rate in the preferred zone. It
takes time for the EFX to readjust the resistance so that
your heart rate remains on target. Check the SmartRate
and the HEART RATE displays to see if you are
maintaining your preferred zone and to determine your
actual heart rate. For information about understanding
your target heart rate, refer to Heart Rate Features.
Important: Consult your physician to determine the
appropriate target heart rate for your age and fitness level.
If your physician recommends a different target heart rate
than the one that appears on the display adjust it
accordingly. Do not exercise over the recommended range
of 85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate.

Setting a Cool-Down Time Limit
Setting the CrossRamp Auto-Reset Feature
You can limit how long a user cools down after exercising on
the unit by entering a time between 0 and 5 minutes.
The EFX has an auto-reset feature. The ramp resets to a
specific incline level when you begin your exercise session
and choose a program that has a different initial CrossRamp
setting then the previously used program.
Important: It is highly recommended that you set the cool-
down period at or above three minutes. It takes time for a
user’s heart rate to return to a resting state after vigorous
exercise. An effective cool-down period also reduces the
amount of lactic acid in muscle tissue.
8. At the SET CROSSRAMP prompt, press OK. Use the
navigational arrow keys to select the desired ramp incline

both touch-sensitive handrail grips.
To conduct electrical impulses from a user’s heart, both
touch-sensitive handrail grips must be grasped firmly for five
to ten seconds. Usually, the concentration of salts in a
person’s perspiration provides enough conductivity to
transmit a signal to the receiver in the display console.
However, because of body chemistry or erratic heartbeats,
some people cannot use the heart rate feature. A chest strap
may provide better results. Refer to the QuickStart Card for
proper placement of the chest strap.

Maintenance
It is important to perform the minor maintenance tasks
described in this section. Failure to maintain the EFX as
described here could void the Precor Limited Warranty.
Cleaning the Equipment
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the
covers. However, for efficient operation, the EFX relies on
foot pedals, handlebars, and covers must be as clean as
possible.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,
DANGER
always unplug the unit from its power
source before cleaning it or
performing any maintenance tasks.
Precor recommends the EFX be cleaned before and after
each workout. Use mild soap and water; dampen a soft cloth
and wipe all exposed surfaces. This helps remove any dust
or dirt.
Inspection
Inspect the EFX before use.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor
Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on any
part of the EFX. Allow the EFX to dry completely before
using.
Look and listen for slipping belts, loose fasteners, unusual
noises, worn or frayed power cords, and any other
indications that the equipment may be in need of service. If
you notice any of these, obtain service.
Frequently vacuum the floor around the unit to prevent the
accumulation of dust and dirt, which can affect the smooth
operation of the unit. Use a soft nylon scrub brush to clean
the foot pedals.
Important: If you determine that the EFX needs service,
make sure that the EFX cannot be used inadvertently. Turn
the unit Off, insert the locking pin and then unplug the
power cord from its power source. Make sure other users
know that the EFX needs service.
To order parts or to contact a Precor authorized service
provider in your area, refer to Obtaining Service.
Owner’s Manual: Maintenance
56
Storing the Chest Strap
Store the chest strap in a place where it remains free of dust
and dirt such as, in a closet or drawer. Be sure to protect
the chest strap from extremes in temperature. Do not store it
in a place that may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F
(0° C).
To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth
dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface
thoroughly with a clean towel.
Long-Term Storage
When the EFX is not in use for any length of time, turn it Off.
Make sure that the power cord is unplugged from its power
source and is positioned so that it will not become damaged
or interfere with people or other equipment.
