5 Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen- sor continuously during a pulse program; how- ever, you must hold the handgrip pulse sensor fre- quently. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal con- tacts for at least 15 seconds. Note: When you are not holding the handgrip pulse sensor, the let- ters “PLS” will appear in the display instead of your heart rate.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
6 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.
Heart rate program 11 is divided into several
If heart rate program 12, 13, or 14 is se- lected, the target heart rate setting for the first
segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the matrix. The target heart rate settings for
the next several segments will be shown in the columns to the right. When only three seconds re- main in the first segment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a series of tones will sound.
When the first segment ends, all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. The tar- get heart rate setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column.
During all heart rate programs, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed of the walking belt will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set- ting.
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, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the speed of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the right display and the speed of the treadmill may automatically de- crease.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. To restart the program, press the Start but- ton or the Speed increase button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
