5 Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

After you have

entered your age, the letters

PLS will appear in the Pulse/

Calories display. Press the + or –

button. A number will then appear in the display. This number is the maximum heart rate setting for the program. If Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to 85% of your maximum possible heart rate; if Pulse program 2 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to 80% of your maximum possible heart rate.

Note: Your maximum possible heart rate is esti- mated by subtracting your age from 220. For ex- ample, if you are 30 years old, your maximum pos- sible heart rate is 190 (220 – 30 = 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 123 to 161 beats per minute (65% of 190 is 123; 85% of 190 is 161).

If you want to change the maximum heart rate set- ting, press the + and – buttons. The buttons can be held down to change the setting quickly. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button.

6 Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. The Time/Segment Time dis- play will show both the time remaining in the pro- gram and the time remaining in the current seg- ment. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. The heart rate setting for the first segment will be

shown in the flashing Current Segment col- umn of the program display. The heart rate settings for the next seven segments will be shown in the seven columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash, a se- ries of tones will sound, and the Speed display and the Distance/Incline display will flash. When the first segment is completed, all heart rate set- tings will move one column to the left. The heart rate setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column, and the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to the heart rate setting for the second segment.

The program will continue until no time remains in the Time/Segment Time display. 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 automati- cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in- cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will increase. The treadmill 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 can- not be decreased any further.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters PLS will flash in the Pulse/Calories dis- play. In addition, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, refer to CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING on page 7.

Pulse programs cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button.

7 Follow your progress with the four displays.

Refer to step 5 on page 12.

8 When the program has ended, remove the key.

See step 6 on page 14.
