It can also measure the effect of your program in a number of different ways. For example “Aerobic Points” (see page16) is a well tested method to set program goals based on a desired level of overall fitness.

  • Page 4: Important Safety Instructions

    Aerobics, Inc. • Never operate your PaceMaster treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not operating properly, if it has been dropped or damaged or if it has been immersed in water. Should any of these occur, contact your authorized PaceMaster retailer or service center for examination or repair.
