5.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and place your thumb on the pulse sensor
(see the drawing on page 13). Do not press too
hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be
restricted and your pulse may not be detected.
When your pulse is detected, the small heart sym-
bol in the lower right display will flash, one or two
dashes will appear, 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 seconds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition
your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to
stand still while measuring your heart rate.
6.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
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
or you may damage the treadmill when you fold
it to the storage position. Next, remove 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.
HOW TO USE A SPEED PROGRAM
1.
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 13.
2.
Select one of the four speed programs.
To select a speed pro-
gram, press the
Program Select button
repeatedly; "P-1," "P-2,"
"P-3," or "P-4" will ap-
pear in the upper dis-
play for a few seconds to show which program is
selected. The maximum speed setting of the se-
lected program will also flash in one of the dis-
plays for a few seconds.
Each program consists of 30 one-minute periods.
One speed setting is programmed for each period.
Note: The same speed setting may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive periods.
The profiles on the console show how the speed
of the walking belt will change during the pro-
grams.
3.
Press the Start button or the speed + button to
start the program.
When you press either button, the treadmill will
automatically adjust to the speed setting that is
programmed for the first period of the program.
Hold the handrails and begin walking.
When the first period ends, a series of tones will
sound. If a different speed setting is programmed
for the second period, the speed setting will flash
in one of the displays to alert you, and then the
speed of the walking belt will change. The pro-
gram will continue until all 30 periods are com-
pleted. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed setting is too high or too low during
the program, you can manually override the setting
by pressing the speed buttons. However, when
the next segment of the workout begins, the
treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed
and incline settings for the next segment.
To stop the program, press the Stop button. The
time will begin to flash in one of the displays. To
restart the program, press the Start button or the
speed + button. The walking belt will begin to
move at 1 mph. When the next period begins, the
speed of the walking belt will change if a different
speed setting is programmed for the next period.
