Heart Rate Capabilities
You can make each program on the C932i a heart rate "interactive" program by
monitoring and maintaining your heart rate in the SmartRate
your specific needs. You'll need to obtain and wear a chest strap to activate the
heart rate capabilities.
Note: The SmartRate
as the PRECOR banner is scrolling across the display. Refer to Features on the
Display Console for more information.
Before using the treadmill's heart rate capabilities, take time to read the following
guidelines.
•
Consult with your physician before engaging in any vigorous exercise. Do
not use the Heart Rate Control program or the treadmill's heart rate capabili-
ties until authorized by your physician.
•
Slow down and stop immediately if you experience any pain or abnormal
symptoms.
•
Gently stretch your lower body and back before and after working out to
help prevent stiffness or soreness.
•
Know your heart rate (pulse) and your physician-recommended heart rate
target zone. Individual heart rates vary according to several physiological fac-
tors and may not correspond directly with the diagrams and tables provided.
•
You should not use the heart rate capabilities if you are taking any medica-
tions that either speed up or slow down your heart rate.
•
Always face forward on your C932i and use the handrail for balance. Keep in
mind that you are wearing sensitive equipment (the chest strap) and upper
body movement should be kept to a minimum.
•
After putting on the chest strap, be sure that the C932i is ON. Face the
display console for a minimum of 15 seconds. This allows the receiver in the
console to acknowledge the presence of the transmitter.
•
Incorporate a cool-down period into your workout to help lower your heart
rate and minimize muscle stiffness or soreness.
