The right display—
When the manual
mode or the 30-minute
Challenge program is
selected, the right dis-
play will show the
speed of the walking belt. When the 5K Run pro-
gram is selected, the display will show the speed of
the walking belt and the approximate number of
calories you have burned.
The right display will also show your heart rate
when you use the pulse sensor (see step 7 below).
To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
7. Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stand
on the foot rails
and place your
left thumb on the
pulse sensor. Do
not press too
hard, or the cir-
culation in your
thumb will be restricted and your pulse will not
be detected. When your pulse is detected, a heart-
shaped indicator in the right display will flash each
time your heart beats, one or two dashes will ap-
pear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For
the most accurate heart rate reading, hold your
thumb on the pulse sensor for at least 15 sec-
onds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or
too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, reposition your thumb on the pulse sensor.
Remember to stand still while measuring your
heart rate.
8. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
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-
Pulse Sensor
move the key from the console and put it in a secure
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 treadmill's electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
