•To increase your heart rate while in the HRC mode, the speed will always increase until the maximum speed is attained, then the grade will begin to increase.

•To lower heart rate in the HRC mode, grade will always decrease first, followed by speed.

•If you enter the HRC stage, below 5mph, the speed you enter will be the maximum speed of your workout. i.e.: If you like to walk at a maximum speed of 3.8 mph, you should enter HRC at 3.8 mph.

•If you enter the HRC stage above 5 mph, you will have an additional 1 mph of speed. i.e.: If you enter HRC at 6 mph, your maximum attainable speed in the HRC stage will be 7 mph.

•If at any time you enter the HRC stage with grade, you will have an additional 4% of grade available in the HRC stage. i.e.: If you enter the HRC stage at 1% grade your maximum attainable grade will be 5%.

•If you do not enter the HRC stage with grade, no grade will be available during the HRC stage of your workout. Only speed will be used to control your heart rate.
