ProForm 590 rt user manual Measure your heart rate if desired

The left display—As you exercise, the left dis- play can show the elapsed time and the ap- proximate number of calories that you have

burned. The display also shows the incline of the treadmill when the incline changes.

The right display—The right display can show the distance that you have walked or run and the speed of the walking belt. The display also

shows your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 6 below).

To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.

6.Measure your heart rate if desired.

Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean. To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the contacts for approximately 10 seconds—avoid moving your hands. When

your pulse is detected, one or two dashes will appear in the display and then your heart rate will be

shown. ForContacts the most ac-

curate heart rate reading,

continue to hold the contacts for about 15 sec- onds.

7.When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console.

Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest set- ting or you may damage the treadmill when you fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.
