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.
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 at the top of page 12). Do not
press too hard, or the circulation in your
thumb will be restricted and your pulse may
not be detected. When your pulse is detected, a
heart-shaped indicator in the lower right display
will flash each time your heart beats, one or two
dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will
be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, 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.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
7
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails and press the Stop button.
Next, remove the key from the console and put it in
a secure place.
Switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" posi-
tion and unplug the power cord.
