Each pulse-driven program is divided into one- minute segments. (The main display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time re- maining in the current segment of the program.) One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. (During the MANUAL PULSE pro- gram, the same target heart rate setting will be programmed for all segments.)

When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the speed and/or incline of the INCLINE TRAINER will change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting for the next segment. The speed and/or incline setting will flash in the main display to alert you before the speed and/or incline changes. The program will continue until no time remains in the program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting for the current seg- ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set- ting with the SPEED or INCLINE buttons. However, if you decrease the speed, the incline will automatically increase; if you increase the speed, the incline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you de- crease the incline, the speed will increase. The INCLINE TRAINER will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the target heart rate setting for the current segment. Note: When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest setting, the speed cannot be de- creased any further.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters PLS will flash in the main display and the incline and speed of the INCLINE TRAINER may automatically decrease until your pulse is de- tected. If this occurs, refer to the instructions in- cluded with your chest pulse sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the STOP button. Pulse-driven programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a pulse-driven program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.

Follow your progress with the main display. Refer to step 5 on page 15.

When the program is completed, remove the key.

Refer to step 6 on page 18.
