5.Follow your progress with the displays.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
The far left display—
When you select the manual mode, the matrix
will display a track that represents 1/4 mile (400
m). As you exercise, the
indicators around the track will appear in succes- sion until the entire track appears. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to appear in succession.
Before using the handgrip heart rate monitor, re- move the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts on the pulse bar. In ad- dition, make sure that your hands are clean.

The lower left display— As you exercise, the lower left display can show the elapsed time and the distance that
you have walked or run.
The lower left display will also show the incline of the treadmill each time the incline level changes.
The lower right dis- play—The lower right
display can show the approximate number of
calories that you have burned and the speed of
the walking belt. The display also shows your heart rate when you use the handgrip heart rate monitor (see step 6).
The upper
display—The upper display
can show the
elapsed time, the distance that
you have walked or run, the approximate number of calories that you have burned, or the speed of the walking belt. Press the Display button repeat- edly until the upper display shows the information that you are most interested in viewing. Note: While information is shown in the upper display, the same information will not be shown in the lower displays.
To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, a heart symbol in the lower right display will flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 sec- onds.
7.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 setting 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.
