WARM-UP STAGE

Warm-up Stage Instructions: The treadmill will operate in the manual mode during the warm up stage so you can control both speed and grade. It is important that you start at a low level of perceived exertion and gradually increase your work load over several minutes until you approach your target heart rate. This allows your body to adapt to your workout. Increasing work load gradually will allow you to enter the heart rate control stage without overshooting your target.

NOTE: Warming up too fast may cause you to overshoot your target. If this occurs it amy take several minutes before the computer software can control your heart rate. You may overshoot and undershoot your target for several minutes until control is achieved. Wear the heart rate transmitter provided with your treadmill directly against the skin 1-2 inches below the pectoral muscles/breast line. Initially the transmission signal for heart rate may be erratic or non existent. Perspiration on your skin is necessary for proper transmission. The Heart Ò Ò LED will flash, showing that the heart rate signal is received.

NOTE: If while you are warming up you feel that your selected target is too high or too low, you can edit your target to a new value as follows:

Press TARGET HRC CRUISE CONTROL or INTERVAL HRC

(The target value message will appear,

TARGET XXX). Using

, edit heart

rate (only 5 beat changes are permitted when editing target down).

Press TARGET HRC CRUISE CONTROL or INTERVAL HRC

to set new heart

rate target.

 

Continue to warm up. Do this only while display is flashing or the software may exit you from heart rate control.

Warm-Up Stage Instructions: Using gradually increase speed to a comfortable walk. If you have entered a maximum grade in your workout, you may increase grade

gradually by using . Remember, warm up slowly! Continue increasing speed and/or grade to gradually increase your heart rate. You may only increase speed and grade to the preset maximum values entered.

When your heart rate is within 15 beats from the target, the message center will read

APPROACHING TARGET XXX

HEART RATE CONTROL

Heart Rate Control Stage Instructions: When your heart rate is 10 beats away from your selected target heart rate, the message center will read:

BEGINNING

TARGET HRC

HANDS FREE.

The computer software will take control of the speed and grade at this point to allow HANDS FREE operation. By taking control before you actually reach your target heart rate, the computer reduces the chances of overshooting your target heart rate.

NOTE: Do not touch the

or will immediately exit you from heart rate control and begin your cool down stage.

The treadmill will now control all speed and grade changes. The treadmill will gradually continue to increase your workload until your heart rate reaches your selected target.

When your heart rate is at the selected target, the message will read:

AT TARGET

The message will then read

The time will decrease from the work interval time you entered. When you reach zero, the

message will readThe time will decrease from the rest interval time you entered.

700/725 HRC NOTE: additional displayed

data include:(total time remaining at target heart rate), this message follows both the work interval and rest interval

display.

XX:XXW (displayed in time window) time remaining in work interval. XX:XXR (displayed in time window) time remaining in rest interval. NOTE: Mets and pace is displayed briefly in message center after target message.

As your heart rate increases or decrease from your target, the treadmill will automatically make the adjustments to speed and/or grade to keep your heart rate near your selected target only while you are in the work interval.

Interval Training is one of the fastest ways to increase cardiovascular fitness. The treadmill will monitor your heart rate and adjust the speed and/or grade while in the work interval. When you enter the rest interval, there will be a 50% MET reduction. Your work level will remain the same throughout the rest period to allow your heart rate to decrease. Your heart rate will be monitored during this time, but there will be no adjustment to speed or grade in the rest interval.

When you return to the work interval, your speed will return to a calculated average of the speeds and/or grades which were used in the previous work intervals. Your speed and/or grade may increase or decrease while you are in your work interval. This averaging of speed and/or grade enables you to return to a work level which will bring you near your selected target heart rate.

NOTE: If you feel that your selected target is too high or too low, you can change your target heart rate as follows, when you are in Heart Rate Control.

Press . The target value message will appear:

TARGET XXX

ADJ TARGET + -

Using , change your target heart rate. Only 5 beat changes are permitted when editing target while in Interval Workouts.

Press to set new heart rate target. The treadmill will now adjust the work load to bring you to your new target. Do this only while the display is flashing or the software may exit you from Heart Rate Control. In Interval Training it may take a few work inter- vals to bring you to your new selected target heart rate.

To end your workout before the time you

previously selected, press .

COOL DOWN STAGE

Cool Down Stage Instructions: When the time is elapsed and the HRC stage of your workout is finished, the message center will read:

(audible signal) followed by

will remain in the message center to remind you that you are in the cool down stage.

There will be an immediate 50% MET reduction in work load when you enter the cool down stage. The treadmill will now operate in the manual mode. The time will reset to 0 and begin to ascend. You will be in complete control of all speed and grade changes. It is recommended that you spend an equal amount of time in the cool down stage as you did in the warm up stage or, a minimum of at least 2 minutes. Press when you are finished!

NOTE: Workout totals of average heart rate, distance, calories and time will appear in the message center at the end of your workout.

If while in the HRC stage you prematurely end your workout, you will enter the cool down stage and your work load will remain constant. You may then manually adjust speed and grade.
