HOW TO USE THE FITNESS TEST PROGRAM

The FITNESS TEST program is designed to measure the relative fitness level you have achieved. For the best results, the program should be used at a time when your energy level is high; the program should not be used if you have already exercised during the day.

The FITNESS TEST program consists of seven 4- minute periods, and is followed by a 2-minute cool- down period. The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically increase at the beginning of each period. Follow the steps below to use the program.

1Insert the key fully into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 11.

2Select the FITNESS TEST program.

When the key is inserted, the manual mode will automatically be selected, as shown by the MANUAL indicator. Press the

PROGRAM SELECT button repeatedly until the FITNESS TEST indi- cator lights. The letters

ÒAGEÓ will begin to flash in the SPEED/INCLINE

display. Note: If the walking belt is moving when the FITNESS TEST program is selected, the walk- ing belt will slow to a stop. In addition, if the incline of the treadmill is higher than 1.5%, it will automati- cally decrease to 1.5%.

3Put on the chest pulse sensor.

You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use the FITNESS TEST program. See HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR on page 7. Note: The program can be started without your heart rate being detected; however, the program will automat- ically stop if your heart rate is not detected 4 minutes after the program is started.

4Enter your age.

You must enter your age into the console to use the FITNESS TEST program. To enter your age, see step 5 on page 15. If you have already entered your age, you must press one of the SET AGE buttons to verify the age setting.

5Press the START button to start the program.

When the START button is pressed, the TIME/

PACE display will begin counting up and the

DISTANCE/LAPS display will show an

ÒL 1Ó (level 1), indicating that the first 4-minute period of the FITNESS TEST program has begun. The incline of the treadmill will automatically adjust to 3%, and the walking belt will begin to move at 1.5 mph. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

When the first 4-minute period of the program is completed, the DISTANCE/LAPS display will show an ÒL 2,Ó indicating that the second 4-minute period has begun. The incline will increase to 4%, and the speed will increase to 2.5 mph. At the beginning of each 4-minute period, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically increase. The FITNESS TEST will continue in this manner until your heart rate reaches 70% of your theoretical maximum heart rate, and the current 4-minute period is completed. The FITNESS TEST will then end, regardless of how many periods remain.

When the FITNESS TEST is completed, the

letter ÒCÓ will be shown in the DISTANCE/ LAPS display, indicating

that the cool-down

period has begun. The TIME/PACE display will then begin counting down. When only ten seconds remain in the cool-down period, the incline of the treadmill will automatically decrease to 1.5%.
