FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more effective. When you select the manual mode of the console, you can change the speed and incline of the treadmill with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sen- sor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 23).

The console also features ten trainer programs. Each trainer program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an ef- fective workout. In addition, the console offers two heart rate programs. Each heart rate program adjusts the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate during your workout. Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor to use the heart rate programs.

The console also features iFIT.com interactive technol- ogy. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per- sonal trainer in your home. Using a stereo audio cable,

you can connect the treadmill to your portable stereo, home stereo, computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com MP3, CD, and video programs (iFIT.com MP3 programs, CDs, and videocassettes are available sepa- rately). iFIT.com programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer guides you through every step of your workout; high- energy music provides added motivation. To down- load iFIT.com MP3 programs, go to www.iFIT.com. To purchase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can also go to www.iFIT.com and access iFIT.com programs directly from our website. See www.iFIT.com for more information.
