FITNESS TEST
The treadmill features two different fitness tests. The fast-
paced 2 km walking test requires a lower level of effort,
while the 12-minute Cooper run test is better suited to
those who are fit. You can use PSC to adjust the speed
during the tests.
1. Select your user code (1-4) with the SELECTION DIAL.
Press START to confirm your selection.
2. Select TEST. Press SELECTION DIAL to confirm your
selection.
3. Choose between the 2 km walking test and the Cooper
test. Press SELECTION DIAL to confirm your selection.
2 KM WALKINGWALKING TEST
The walking test requires the use of a heart rate monitor.
The test measures your fitness level on the basis of your
heart rate level during the exercise and the time taken
to complete the 2 km distance. The test is preceded by
a 3-minute warm-up period. We also recommend you
continue walking slowly after the test, so that your heart
rate returns smoothly to normal. On the basis of your
performance, the console will display an estimate of your
maximum oxygen uptake capacity.
BEGINNING THE WALKINGWALKING TEST:
By rotating the dial clockwise, you can increase setting
values. By pressing the dial, you can accept the selection
you made when rotating the dial.
1. The display prompts for user height: enter your height.
2. The display prompts for the user's sex: enter your sex.
3. The display prompts for user weight: enter your weight.
4. The display prompts for the user's age.
5. The display reads PRESS START TO 3 MIN WARM UP to
indicate you can begin the 3-minute warm-up period.
Begin the warm-up period by pressing START.
6. The running deck elevation is adjusted at 1 % to simulate
air resistance. Adjust speed using the speed control keys
or the PSC function. We recommend that you warm up by
walking at a slightly faster pace than normally.
7. During the warm-up period, time will count down from
three minutes. When the time displays 0:00, the console
gives an audio signal and the actual test will begin (TEST
STARTED!).
PERFORMING THE WALKINGWALKING TEST:
1. The goal is to walk the 2 km distance as quickly as
possible. Adjust the speed yourself by using the speed
control keys or the PSC function. Do not run during the
test!
2. If the heart rate measurement is not working correctly,
the display will show the alert CHECK TRANSMITTER. You
should then make sure that you have properly followed
the instructions on the use of the heart rate belt.
3. Once the 2 km distance is covered, the console gives
an audio signal. The test is automatically followed by a
5-minute cool-down period, after which the treadmill will
stop. The display gives the test result as your maximum
oxygen uptake capacity and shows an estimate of your
fitness level. Compare your results to the fitness level
categories for different age groups, shown in the table.
COOPER TEST
The Cooper test is used to calculate your fitness level on
the basis of the distance you run in a period of 12 minutes:
the longer the distance you cover, the better your fitness
level. The test is preceded by a 3-minute warm-up period.
We also recommend you continue walking slowly after the
test, so that your heart rate returns smoothly to normal. On
the basis of your performance, the console will display an
estimate of your maximum oxygen uptake capacity.
BEGINNING THE COOPER TEST:
By rotating the dial clockwise, you can increase setting
values. By pressing the dial, you can accept the selection
you made when rotating the dial.
1. The display reads COOPER SELECTED. Press START to
confirm your selection.
2. The display prompts for the user's sex: enter your sex.
3. The display prompts for the user's age: enter your age.
4. The display reads PRESS START TO 3 MIN WARM UP to
indicate you can begin the 3-minute warm-up period.
Begin the warm-up period by pressing START.
5. The running deck elevation is adjusted at 1 % to simulate
air resistance. Adjust speed using the speed control keys
or with the PSC. We recommend that you warm up by
walking at a slightly faster pace than normally.
6. During the warm-up period, time will count down from
three minutes. When the time displays 0:00, the console
gives an audio signal and the actual test will begin (TEST
STARTED!).
