Current Segment

5 Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

After you have entered your

age, another number will begin to flash in the Pulse/

Calories 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 maximum 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.

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 all heart rate settings

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. 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 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 heart rate is not detected during the pro- gram, the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your heart rate is detected. If this occurs, see CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING on page 6.

To stop the program temporarily, press one of the Stop buttons. All displays will pause and the Time/ Segment Time display will begin to flash. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Speed button. To end the program, press a Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.

7 Follow your progress with the four displays.

Refer to step 6 on page 11.

8 When the program has ended, remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails and make sure that the in- cline of the treadmill is at 0%. The incline must be at 0% when the treadmill is raised to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. Note: If the displays and indicators on the console remain lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. Refer to page 22 and turn off the demo mode.

When you are finished using the treadmill, move the on/off switch near the power cord to the off position and unplug the power cord.
