HEART RATE COURSE

Once the user sets a target heart rate and the running belt’s speed, the C934 Heart Rate Course monitors the user’s heart rate and automatically maintains it within a few beats per minute (bpm) of the selected target. Blinking lights on the SmartRate® bar graph appear to show the “zone” that the user is in.

Note: For the C934 to detect a heart rate, the user must wear the POLAR® chest strap or hold onto both touch-sensitive grips on the handrails.The POLAR® chest strap is optional equipment that can be purchased from your dealer.

To use the Heart Rate Course, have the user follow the steps found in Quick Steps to Working Out on page 37 and choose HRC at the COURSE prompt. For the Heart Rate Course to operate properly, a user’s AGE must be entered during the Setup prompts. Once the user addresses the remaining Setup prompts, the following occurs:

The software verifies that it detects a heart rate signal. You need to press the SPEED key to begin working out.

Note: If a user’s heart rate cannot be detected (or transmitted through the POLAR® chest strap or touch-sensitive grips), the letters “Hr” blink in the heart rate display. Once a heart rate is detected the number that corre- sponds to the user’s heart rate appears.

The treadmill provides a three-minute warm-up period before entering the Heart Rate Course. During this time, the user may make changes to the incline by using the INCLINE ▲▼ keys. He or she can press the SPEED ▼▲ keys to set the running belt’s speed.

Note: If the user’s heart rate moves into his or her heart rate zone during the three-minute warm-up period, the Heart Rate Course begins concurrently.

After the warm-up period, the treadmill automatically adjusts the incline to keep the user’s heart rate at the selected target. The SmartRate® display indicates which zone: cardiovascular or weight loss, that the user is in.

Note: A user can change the running belt’s speed anytime during a work- out, but doing so affects the treadmill’s ability to maintain the target heart rate. It takes time for the treadmill to readjust the incline so that the user’s heart rate remains on target.

CAUTION: A warning message appears if the user goes above his or her maximum recommended heart rate target zone. Heed the warning. Make sure that the user has permission from his or her personal physician before working out above the maximum recommended zone for his or her age and fitness level. See Diagram 22 on page 42 for the recommended target zones.

When a user reaches the time limit, a cool-down period begins. The user can override the speed and incline by pressing the appropriate or keys.

Note:The speed remains constant, if the user was at or below 0.5 mph (1.0 kph).
