When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the letters “AGE” and the current age setting will begin to flash in the Speed display. You
must enter your age to use a heart rate program. If you have already entered your age, press the Start button (pressing the Start button at this time will not start the program). If you have not entered your age, press the Age/Weight Set buttons until your age is shown. Then, press the Start button. Your age will then be saved in memory.
Adjust the maximum speed limit for the
5 program.
After you have entered
your age, the letters “SPd” (speed) and the maximum speed limit for the program will flash in the Speed dis-
play. If desired, change the maximum speed limit by pressing the Speed buttons.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
6 start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each heart rate program is divided into 20 one- minute segments. (The Time/Pace display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment of the program.) One target heart rate setting is pro- grammed for each segment. (The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.)
During the program, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed of
the treadmill will automatically increase or de- crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maxi- mum speed limit for the program (see step 5 at the left) and your heart rate is still too far below the current target heart rate setting, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
The program will continue until no time remains in the program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the current speed or incline setting is too high or too low, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the con- sole compares your heart rate to the current 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.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Incline/Heart Rate display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is de- tected. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.
