Step By Step Instructions - Spirit SR225 Owner's Manual & Operating Instructions

5. The rate at which the treadmill will increase in incline is based upon the
following heart rate relationships:
a) A heart rate 11 to 20 beats below the THR will cause the incline to
increase at a rate of 1 percent every 15 seconds.
b) A heart rate 6 to 10 beats below the THR will cause the incline to
increase at a rate of 1 percent every 30 seconds.
c) A heart rate 3 to 5 beats below the THR will cause the incline to increase
at a rate of .5 percent every 30 seconds.
(Note: The time rate of increase allows your heart rate to stabilize and adapt
to the greater work load.)
6. At a heart rate of 3 beats or more above the THR, the incline will decrease
at a rate of 1 percent every 15 seconds.
7.
If
your actual heart rate has not reached the THR after your pre-set
maximum incline has been reached, a red line will appear on the display to
the left of the written inscription "increase speed". At your discretion, you may
wish to increase the speed until your actual heart rate reaches your THR, or
you may wish to reduce the THR .
8. If your actual heart rate is greater than the THR after the incline has been
reduced to zero , a red line will appear to the left of the written inscription
"decrease speed". At your discretion, you may wish to decrease the speed until
your actual heart rate reaches your THR, or you may wish to increase the THR .
Special Note: Anyone using the Heart Rate Control should consult with a
physician beforehand.
