WARM UP STAGE

The treadmill will operate as if in the manual mode during the warm-up stage. You control both speed and grade. You may only increase speed and grade to the preset maximum values entered. 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 may 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.
