Rate on a schedule approved by your physician. Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program. With all SPIRIT Heart Rate Control treadmills, you may use the heart rate monitor feature without using the Heart Rate Control program. This function can be used during any of the different programs.
Using a Heart Rate Transmitter (Optional) How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. 3.
Heart Rate Control How the Heart Rate Control Program Works: Heart Rate Control (HRC) uses your treadmill's incline system to adjust your heart rate. Increases and decreases in elevation affect heart rate much more efficiently than changes in speed alone. The HRC program automatically changes elevation gradually to achieve the programmed target heart rate.
General Maintenance Belt and Deck - Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction deck. Performance is maximized when the deck is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge.
