When the cool-down
segment is completed,
the walking belt will slow
to a stop. After the fit-
ness test program is
completed, your fitness
level will be shown in the Time display. There are
ten fitness levels—fitness level 10 (FL:10) is the
highest. Remember, the fitness program is intended
only to indicate your relative fitness level.
Note: The Speed and Incline buttons will not
function whilst the fitness test program is selected. If
your pulse is not detected during the program, the
letters "PLS" will flash in the Heart Rate/Calories
display. If your pulse is not detected during the last
thirty seconds of any 4-minute segment (after 4
minutes, after 8 minutes, etc.), the fitness test pro-
gram will end and the Time display will show a fit-
ness level of 0 (FL: 0).
The fitness test program cannot be stopped tem-
porarily and then restarted. However, the program
can be stopped at any time by pressing the Stop
button. The Time display will then show an esti-
mated fitness level.
When the program has ended, remove the key.

HOW TO USE THE PULSE-DRIVEN PROGRAM
The pulse-driven program automatically adjusts the
speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart
rate near a target level during your workout. Note: You
must wear the chest pulse sensor to use the pulse-
driven program.
CAUTION:
If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and
have been inactive, do not use the pulse-driven
program. If you are taking medication regularly,
consult your physician to find whether the
medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

one-minute segments.
One speed setting and
one incline setting can

each segment. The
speed setting for the first segment will be shown
in the flashing Current Segment column of the
program display. (The incline settings are not

buttons is pressed, an additional indicator will light
or darken in the Current Segment column.
When the first segment of the program is com-
pleted, the current speed setting and the current
incline setting will be stored in memory. All
