4 Enter a maximum heart rate setting.
When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the words “Heart Rate” will appear in the upper cen-
ter of the display and the target heart rate setting
for the program will flash. If desired, press the Heart Rate increase and decrease buttons to ad- just the target heart rate setting. Note: See the heart rate chart on page 28 for heart rate guide- lines.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
5 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 of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each heart rate program is divided into 20 one- minute segments. One target heart rate is pro- grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar- get heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.
During each segment, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically increase or de- crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
During the last three seconds of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the speed setting and the incline setting will flash in the display.
The program will continue in this way until the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automati- cally decrease. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. The time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Speed increase button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the console com- pares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automat- ically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
