6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip heart rate moni-
tor and the chest heart rate monitor at the same
time, the console will not display your heart
rate accurately. For information about the chest
heart rate monitor, see page 15.
Before using
the hand-
grip heart
rate monitor,
remove the
sheets of plas-
tic from the
metal contacts
on the pulse
bar. In addi-
tion, 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 contacts; avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will be
shown. For the most accurate heart rate read-
ing, continue to hold the contacts for about 15
seconds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan features mul-
tiple speed settings.
Press the fan increase
or decrease 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 auto-
matically 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.

HOW TO USE AN ONBOARD WORKOUT
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 18.
2. Select an onboard workout.
To select an onboard workout, press the Calorie
button, the Timed button, the Performance button,
or the Distance button repeatedly until the desired
workout appears in the display.
When you select an onboard workout, the display
will show the duration, the distance, and the name
of the workout. In addition, a profile of the speed
settings of the workout will appear in the matrix. If
you select a calorie workout, the approximate num-
ber of calories you will burn will appear in the name
of the workout.
3. Start the workout.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase button
to start the workout. A moment after you press the
button, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the
first speed and incline settings of the workout. Hold
the handrails and begin walking.
Each workout is divided into segments. One speed
setting and one incline setting are programmed for
each segment. Note: The same speed setting and/
or incline setting may be programmed for consecu-
tive segments.
During the
workout, the
profiles on the
speed and
incline tabs
will show your
progress. The
flashing seg-
ment of the profile represents the current segment
of the workout. The height of the flashing segment
indicates the speed or incline setting for the current
segment.
At the end of each segment, a series of tones will
sound and the next segment of the profile will begin
to flash. If a different speed and/or incline setting is
programmed for the next segment, the new speed
and/or incline settings will appear in the display for
a few seconds and the treadmill will automatically
adjust to the new speed and/or incline setting.
