Operating and Maintaining the P20 Console
If no user is detected after an additional 30 seconds, the
console displays the message
NO USER DETECTED,
STOPPING IN 10 SECONDS as notification of the pending
stop. During the display of this message, a ten second
countdown begins. If a user does not override the countdown,
the belt comes to a gradual stop after the countdown is
complete.
Note: Users weighing more than 90 pounds (41 kg) are
detected within the speed and position limits of the feature.
Users weighing 50 pounds (22.7 kg) to 89 pounds (40.5 kg)
may not be detected depending on their speed and location.
Always be aware of and follow the console’s instructions for
proper operation.
Using SmartRate®
The Precor SmartRate® technology is a precise, easy-to-read
heart rate monitor that helps users achieve their best
personalized workouts. SmartRate displays actual heart rate
information in relation to the user’s target zone for weight
loss and cardiovascular training. This feature is visible during
all workouts. In addition, some equipment includes a Heart
Rate Control (HRC) workout that automatically adjusts
intensity to keep a user’s heart rate in its target zone. For
more information, refer to Programs.
CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness program, see your
physician for a thorough physical examination. Seek advice from
your physician to learn the target heart rate appropriate for your
fitness level.
To test your heart rate:
1. Begin a workout by pressing QUICK START, or by
selecting a preset workout followed by pressing
GO.
2. Grasp the handheld heart rate sensors with both hands.
Depending on the type of equipment, the letters "
Hr"
appear, or a blinking heart displays while the equipment
reads your heart rate. After a few moments, your heart
rate displays in beats per minute. The blinking segments
in the SmartRate field indicate the current zone of your
heart rate: Warm Up, Fat Burn, Cardio, or High.
