During heart rate pro-
grams, the program
display will show a
graphic that represents
your heart rate. Each
time a heartbeat is de-
tected, an additional
peak will appear.
Enter your age.
When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the let-
ters AGE and the current
age setting will begin to
flash in the Calories/
Fat Calories/Heart Rate
display. You must enter your age to use a heart
rate program. If you have already entered your
age, go to step 5. If you have not entered your
age, press the Incline (Age Set) buttons until your
age is shown. Your age will then be saved in mem-
ory.
Press the Start button or the Speed ▲ ▲ button to
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each heart rate program is divided into one-minute
segments. The Time/Incline/Segment Time display
will show both the time remaining in the program
and the time remaining in the current segment of
the program. One target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for each segment. (The same target
heart rate setting may be programmed for consecu-
tive segments.)
When only three seconds remain in the first one-
minute segment of the program, a series of tones
will sound and the Time/Incline/Segment Time
display and the Speed/Min-Mile display will flash.
The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will then
change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to
the target heart rate setting for the next segment.
The program will continue until no time remains in
the program. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.
If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-
ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set-
ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if
you decrease the speed, the incline will automati-
cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in-
cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the
speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline,
the speed will increase. The treadmill will always
attempt to keep your heart rate near the target
heart rate setting for the current segment. Note:
When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the
speed cannot be increased any further. When the
incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-
not be decreased any further.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters PLS will flash in the Calories/
Fat Calories/Heart Rate display and the speed
and incline of the treadmill may automatically de-
crease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs,
see the instructions included with the optional
chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped
temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate
program again, reselect the program and start it at
the beginning.
Follow your progress with the displays.
See step 5 on page 12.
When the program is completed, remove the
key from the console.
