THE HEART RATE FEATURE

To use the heart rate features you must wear the POLAR® chest strap while working out unless you are using the C956 with the touch-sensitive handrail grips. The chest strap transmits your heart rate signal to the receiver installed in the display console.The signal appears as your pulse rate on the display. During your workout, the heart rate indicator lights and blinks at the same rate as your pulse. This lets you see what your heart rate is doing even when the display is present- ing other workout statistics.

Note: The Smart Rate® display does not appear if you use the Quick Start key to access a course. Refer to QUICK START on page 30.

USING THE SMART RATE® FEATURE

Add the benefit of Smart Rate®to every course on the treadmill. Using Smart Rate® as a visual cue helps you adjust your exercise routine to suit specific needs. Smart Rate®simplifies the correlation between heart rate and exercise.You don’t have to stop concentrating on your workout to find your pulse. It is displayed right in front of you along with the Smart Rate® zone. Once you begin a workout, a blinking seg- ment in the bar graph appears on the left of the display, if you entered your age during the Setup prompts.The blinking segment indicates the zone that your heart rate is in: Weight Loss or Cardiovascular.

Important: Access to Smart Rate® is only available when the person exercising wears a POLAR®chest strap or uses the touch-sensitive electrode grip on the hand- rail. (The POLAR® chest strap and the “touch” capability are separate purchase options.) The Smart Rate®indicator lights do not appear when Quick Start is used to select a course.
