Weslo cadence G-40 User Manual page 17

Note: The console can
display speed and dis-
tance in either miles or
kilometers. To see
which unit of measure-
ment is selected, first
remove the key from the console. Next, hold down
the Stop button, reinsert the key, wait until you
hear a tone, and then release the Stop button. An
"E" for English miles or an "M" for metric kilometers
will appear in the upper display. Press the speed
increase button to change the unit of measurement
if desired. When the desired unit of measurement
is selected, remove the key and then reinsert it.
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 15). Do not press too
hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be re-
stricted 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 read-
ing, 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, re-
move the key from the console, and put it in a se-
cure place. When you are finished using the tread-
mill, press the power switch into the off position
and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you
do not do this, the treadmillʼs 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 15.
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
appear 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 displays
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 consecutive periods. The profiles on
the console show how the speed of the walking
belt will change during the programs.
3. Start the workout.
Press the Start button or the speed increase button
to start the program. When you press the 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.
