NordicTrack ELITE NTL19806.5 User Manual page 16

Select a display mode and follow your
5
progress with the exercise information on the
screen.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can
display the following exercise information:
• The elapsed time. Note: When a program is
selected, the screen will show the time remain-
ing in the program instead of the elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run.
Note: The console can display distance and
speed in either miles or kilometers (see HOW
TO USE THE INFORMATION MODE on page
23). For simplicity, all instructions in this
section refer to miles.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• The incline level of the treadmill. Note: The in-
cline level of the treadmill will be displayed only
when you press the Incline buttons.
• Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be
displayed only when you use the handgrip
pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
• When the manual mode is selected, the screen
can show a track that represents 1/4 mile (400
meters). As you walk or run on the treadmill,
the indicators around the track will appear in
succession until the entire track appears. The
track will then disappear and the indicators will
again begin to appear in succession.
While the television is off, you can select either of
two display modes—a track and some of the exer-
cise information, or all of the exercise information.
While the television is on, you can select any of
three display modes—the information can be dis-
played on the right side of the screen, on the bot-
tom of the screen, or the information can be turned
off while you watch the television. Press the
Display button repeatedly to select the desired dis-
play mode.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
6
You can measure your heart rate using either the
chest pulse sensor (see page 12) or the handgrip
pulse sensor. Note: If you use the handgrip pulse
sensor and the chest pulse sensor at the same
time, the display will not show your heart rate ac-
curately.
Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of
clear plastic
from the
metal con-
tacts. In addi-
tion, make
sure that
your hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and hold the metal contacts—avoid moving
your hands. When your pulse is detected, your
heart rate will appear on the screen. For the most
accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold
the contacts for about 15 seconds.
Turn on the fan if desired.
7
The fan features high and low speed settings.
Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan
speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on
when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn
off automatically after a few minutes.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
8
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting
when you fold the treadmill to the storage posi-
tion or you may damage the treadmill. Next, re-
move the key from the console and put it in a se-
cure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" position and
unplug the power cord. Important: If you do not
do this, the electrical components of the tread-
mill may wear prematurely.
