D Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
To use a heart rate program, you must use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 6 on page 13) or the optional chest pulse sensor. If you use the handgrip pulse sensor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips continuously during the program. However, you should hold the handgrips fre- quently for the program to operate properly. Each
time you hold the handgrips, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds.
Note: When you are not holding the handgrips,
the letters "PLS" will appear in the right display instead of your heart rate.
Bress the Program Start button or begin pedaling to start the program.
Each heart rate program consists of 20 one- minute segments. One resistance setting and one heart rate setting are programmed for each segment. (The same resistance setting and/or heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.)
The resistance
setting for the first Current Segment _
segment will be shown in the flash-
ing Current
Segment column of the matrix. The
resistance settings
for the next several segments will be shown in the 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 series of tones will sound, and all resistance set-
tings will move one column to the left. The resis- tance setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the resistance of the elliptical exerciser will
automatically adjust to the resistance setting for the second segment.
As you exercise, the Training Zone bar will help you to keep your heart rate near the heart rate setting for the current segment. The lit indicators in the bar will show your actual pace. When you hold the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest pulse sensor, the console will peri-

rate setting. If an indicator to the right of the lit indicators is flashing (see drawing a), increase your pace. If an indicator to the left of any lit indi- cator is flashing (see drawing b), decrease your pace. When no indicator is flashing, your heart rate is near the current heart rate setting. Important: The heart rate settings are intend- ed only to provide motivation, Your actual heart rate may be slower than the current heart rate setting, Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
The program will continue until the resistance set- ting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column of the matrix and no time remains in the program.
Note: During the program, you can manually over- ride the resistance setting for the current seg- ment, if desired, with the Resistance buttons. However, when the next segment begins, the elliptical exerciser will automatically adjust to the resistance setting for the next segment. If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
Monitor your progress with the two displays.

Turn on the fan if desired.
