start the program.

The fitness test program measures your approximate VO2 max, or aerobic capacity. VO2 max is a measure of your ability to intake and utilize oxygen to generate energy for endurance activities such as running and cycling. In technical terms, VO2 max is the maximum volume of oxygen, in milliliters, that your body can use in one minute, per kilogram of body weight. A high VO2 max indicates a high level of cardiorespiratory fitness. Note: To learn more about VO2 max, refer to a rep- utable book or consult your physician.

For the most accurate results, use the fitness test pro- gram when you are not feeling tired, when you have not eaten for at least two hours, and when you have not ex- ercised for at least 24 hours. Follow the steps below to use the program.

1 Put on the chest pulse sensor.

You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use the fitness test program.

2 Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12.

3 Select the fitness test program.

To select the fitness test program, press the Fitness Test Program button.

4 Enter your gender.

When the fitness test program is selected,

the letters “GEn” (gen- der) and “M” (male) or

“F” (female) will appear in the display. Press

the Incline increase or decrease button to enter your gender, and then press the Start button. Note: Pressing the Start button at this time will not start the fitness test program.

5 Enter your age.

Next, the word “AGE”

and the current age setting will appear in the display. If you have

not entered your age, press the Incline in-

crease or decrease button repeatedly to enter your age.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. Begin walking on the treadmill. Note: For the most accurate results, do not hold the handrails during the fitness test program.

During the program, the speed and incline of the treadmill will periodically change. The speed set- ting or the incline setting will flash in the display to alert you before each change. Important: The

Speed and Incline buttons will not function during the program.

The program is de- signed last for nine min- utes. When the pro- gram ends, the walking belt will slow to a stop and your VO2 max will appear in the display.

Note: If your pulse is

not detected for several

seconds during the pro- gram (the letters “PLS”

will flash in the display), or if your heart rate ex-

ceeds 85% of your age-predicted maximum heart rate for several seconds during the program, the program may stop and “Vo2 – – –” may appear in the display. If this occurs, try the program again on another day. Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sensor as described on page 9.

7 Follow your progress with the display.

See step 5 on page 12.

8 Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 7 on page 13.
