5. Follow your progress with the displays.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display can

• The matrix
The matrix offers several display options. Press the
increase and decrease buttons next to the Enter
button until the desired option is shown.
The Speed option will show a profile of the speed
settings of the workout. A new segment will appear
at the end of each minute.
The Incline option will show a profile of the incline
settings of the workout. A new segment will appear
at the end of each minute.
The Calorie option will show the approximate
amount of calories you have burned. The height of
each segment represents the amount of calories
burned during that segment.
As you exercise, the workout
intensity level bar will indicate
the approximate intensity level
of your exercise.
The display will also show a track that represents
1/4 mile (400 m). As you exercise, the rectangles

6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using the heart rate monitor, remove the
sheets of plastic from the metal contacts, if neces-

clean.
To measure your
heart rate, stand
on the foot rails
and hold the
metal contacts
on the handrails
for approximately
ten seconds—
avoid moving
your hands.
When your pulse
is detected, first
a heart symbol in the calorie display will appear;
next, one or two dashes will appear; and then your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate
heart rate reading, continue to hold the con-
tacts for about 15 seconds.
