5. Follow your progress with the displays.
The matrix—When
you select the manual
mode, the matrix will
display a track that rep-
resents 1/4 mile (400
m). As you exercise,
the indicators around
the track will appear in succession until the entire
track appears. The track will then disappear and
the indicators will again begin to appear in
succession.
The left display—The
left display will show
the elapsed time, the
incline of the treadmill,
and the approximate
number of calories you
have burned for a few
seconds each. Press the left Display button until
the display shows the information that you are most
interested in viewing. Note: When some workouts
are selected, the display will show the time remain-
ing in the workout instead of the elapsed time.
The right display—
The right display will
show the distance that
you have walked or run
and the speed of the
walking belt for a few
seconds each. Press
the right Display button until the display shows the
information that you are most interested in viewing.
The display will also show your heart rate when
you use the handgrip heart rate monitor (see step
6).
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using the handgrip heart rate monitor, re-
move the sheets of plastic from the metal contacts
on the pulse bar. In addition, make sure that your
hands are clean.
To measure
your heart
rate, stand on
the foot rails
and hold the
pulse bar with
your palms on
the metal con-
tacts; avoid
moving your
hands. When
your pulse is detected, several dashes will appear
and then your heart rate will be shown. For the
most accurate heart rate reading, continue to
hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan features multiple
speed settings. Press
the fan increase or de-
crease button to select a
fan speed or to turn off
the fan. Note: If the fan
is on when the walking
belt is stopped, the fan
will turn off automatically
after a few minutes.
8. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest set-
ting or you may damage the treadmill when you
fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the
key from the console and put it in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, press
the power switch into the off position and unplug
the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do
this, the treadmill's electrical components may
wear prematurely.
