TIME/INCLINE/SEG.
TIME display—When
the manual mode or the
iFIT.com mode is se-
lected, this display will
show the elapsed time
and the incline level of the treadmill. Every seven
seconds, the display will change from one number
to the other, as shown by the arrows in the dis-
play. When a personal trainer program is se-
lected, the display will show the time remaining in
the program, the incline level of the treadmill, and
the time remaining in the current segment of the
program.
CALS./FAT CALS./
HEART RATE display—
This display shows the
approximate numbers of
calories and fat calories
you have burned (see
FAT BURNING on page
24). Every seven seconds, the display will change
from one number to the other, as shown by the ar-
rows in the display. The display will also show
your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see
step 6 on this page).
SPEED/MIN-MILE dis-
play—This display
shows the speed of the
walking belt and your
current pace (pace is
measured in minutes per
mile). Every seven seconds, the display will
change from one number to the other, as shown
by the arrows in the display.
The console can display
speed and distance in ei-
ther miles or kilometers.
To change the unit of
measurement, hold down
the STOP button while
inserting the key into the console. An "E" for
English miles or an "M" for metric kilometers will
appear in the SPEED/MIN-MILE display. Press the
SPEED
button to change the unit of measure-
ment. When the desired unit of measurement is
selected, remove the key and then reinsert it.
Measure your heart rate, if desired.

Note: When using the pulse sensor, make sure
that your hands are clean. The pulse sensor
should also be kept clean with a damp cloth and
mild detergent.
To measure your
heart rate, stand
on the foot rails
and place both
thumbs on the
pulse sensors as
shown. Do not
press too hard,
or the circula-
tion in your
thumbs will be
restricted and
your pulse will
not be detected.
Next, wait until the heart-shaped indicator in the
CALS./FAT CALS./HEART RATE display flashes
steadily. After a few seconds, your heart rate will
be shown. Hold your thumbs on the sensor for an-
other 15 seconds for the most accurate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumbs off the sensors and allow the display
to reset. Then, place your thumbs on the sensors
as described above. Try the pulse sensor several
times until you become familiar with it. Remember
to stand still while measuring your heart rate.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
7
key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the STOP button,
and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
level. The incline must be at the lowest level
when the treadmill is raised to the storage po-
sition or the treadmill will be damaged. Next, re-
move the key from the console and put the key in
a secure place. Note: If the displays and various
indicators on the console remain lit after the
key is removed, the console is in the "demo"
mode. Refer to page 19 and turn off the demo
mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off switch near the power cord to the off
position.
