HEART RATE MONITOR MODE

The treadmill may at any time be used in the Heart Rate Monitor Mode. If the signal from the chest strap

is detected, heart rate BPM will be displayed in the INCLINE window. The incline will only be briefly

displayed if manual or program changes are initiated. The Heart Rate program is designed to keep your

heart at a desired amount of “beats per minute” by automatically adjusting the incline. For example, you

have programmed in a desired heart rate of 125 BPM and your heart rate is only at 110 BPM. If you are

wearing the Heart Rate Transmitter, correctly the incline will automatically increase to intensify the work

load, causing your heart rate to slowly climb to 125 BPM. The treadmill will attempt to maintain your tar-

get heart rate through adjustments to the incline for the remainder of your workout. In the same respect, if

your heart rate is above your programmed amount of BPM’s, the incline will automatically decrease to

lower your heart rate. You may at any time during the Heart Rate Program adjust/override the speed

and/or the incline by simply pressing the correct corresponding button. You may also change your “Target

Heart Rate” at any time by pressing the PROGRAM UP or PROGRAM DOWN button.

HEART RATE PROGRAM OPERATION

1. Plug treadmill into a surge protector outlet. Attach the Red Safety Key on to the treadmill console.

2. Stand on the treadmill and straddle belt. Attach safety key clip to your clothes.

3. Press POWER button. Place the Heart Rate Transmitter strap across your chest and connect ends. (Make

sure your skin is moist and the strap is snug for accurate transmission). At this time, if the display is

receiving a signal from the chest strap, the incline window will begin to settle on your current heart rate.

4. Press the PROGRAM UP button until the HEART RATE LED is on. The incline window will momentarily

flash ‘125’, which is the default program target heart rate.

5. The TIME/PACE window will blink. Use the + or - arrows to select your workout time. Press ENTER

PROGRAM.

6. The SPEED window will then blink. Use the + or - arrows to select the speed for your workout. Press

ENTER PROGRAM.

7. The incline window (if receiving your heart rate accurately) will show current BPM, and the small red light

labeled PULSE adjacent to the incline window, will be illuminated. (If the receiver is not receiving an

accurate reading, the incline window will be flashing - - - -).

8. To adjust the pre-set target heart rate press the PROGRAM UP or PROGRAM DOWN button then press

the ENTER PROGRAM button.

9. Press START/STOP button. Belt will begin to move after 4 seconds. Step on belt slowly after the belt starts

moving.

10. Press START/STOP button. Belt will begin to move after 4 seconds. Step on belt slowly after the belt

starts moving.

The small light on the console labeled TARGET will be illuminated if you are at your target. If you are

not, the ABOVE or BELOW lights will illuminate and reflect if you are above or below your goal. If you

are not within 25 BPM of your “Target heart rate” the program will not work. DO NOT STOP TO START

OVER. Continue exercising and your heart rate will naturally increase. The program will continually

monitor your heart rate and periodically adjust the incline up or down to increase or decrease the resistance

thereby keeping you at your target zone. At the conclusion of the programmed time the TIME window

will flash 00:00 and the CALORIES/DISTANCE window will continue to accumulate values. The tread-

mill will continue operation until the START/STOP button or the PAUSE button is pressed. Press the

POWER button to turn off the treadmill.
