HOW TO USE THE PULSE PROGRAMS

WARNING: If you have heart problems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse programs. If you are taking medication regu- larly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate. Note: The pulse programs require an optional chest pulse sensor.

1Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10.

2Put on the optional chest pulse sensor.

You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor in order to use a pulse program. To put on the chest pulse sensor, follow the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor.

3Select one of the two pulse programs.

When the key is

inserted, the manual mode will be selected and the manual indicator will

light. To select

one of the pulse programs, press the Select Workout button repeatedly until one of the two pulse program indicators lights.

The profiles on the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. The Time/Segment Time display will show how long the selected program will last.

4Enter your age.

When a pulse program is se-

lected, an age setting will begin to flash in the Calories/Pulse display. If you

have already entered your age, simply press the Enter button. To enter your age, press the and buttons. The buttons can be held down to enter your age quickly. When your age is shown, press the Enter button.

5Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

After you have

entered your age, another number will begin to flash in the Calories/ Pulse 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 (your maximum possible heart rate is 220 minus your age); 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 maxi- mum possible heart rate is an estimate only.

For example, if you are 30 years old, your maxi- mum possible heart rate is 190 (220 minus 30 equals 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is se- lected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 123 to 161 (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.

6to 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.Press the Start button or the Speed button

Each program is divided

into several time seg- ments of different lengths. The Time/

Segment Time display 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. When only three seconds re- main in the first segment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the next segment will begin. As you exercise, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically change as needed to keep your heart rate near the current target heart rate setting.

The program will continue until the Time/Segment Time display counts down to zero. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
