metal contacts. Your palms must be resting on
the upper contacts and your fingers must be
touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving your
hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-

dashes (Ð Ð) will appear and your heart rate will
be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. The
display will show your heart rate for up to 15 sec-
onds; the display will then show your current
speed, calories burned, your heart rate, and the
resistance level, in seven-second intervals. Note:
Your heart rate will be shown only when the
pulse sensor is used.

will automatically turn off after ten minutes
If the pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for ten minutes, the con-
sole will automatically switch into a ÒsleepÓ
