During heart rate pro- grams, the matrix will show a graphic that rep- resents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear.
4 Enter your age and a maximum speed setting.
When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the word “AGE” and the current age setting will
flash in the Calories/ Pulse display. If you have already entered
your age, simply press the Enter Age button. If you have not entered your age, press the increase and decrease buttons beside the Enter Age button to enter your age, and then press the Enter Age button.
After you have entered
your age, the letters “SPd” and the maxi- mum speed setting of the program will flash in the Calories/Pulse dis- play. If desired, press
the increase and decrease buttons beside the Enter Age button to adjust the maximum speed setting. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter Age button.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
5 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.
Each heart rate program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment.
During each segment, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed of the treadmill will automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the program (see step 4 at the left) and your heart rate is still too far below the current target heart rate, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
During the last three seconds of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the Speed display and the Distance/Incline display will flash.
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 is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the current target heart rate, the speed and/or in- cline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Calories/ Pulse display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instruc- tions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.
