After you have entered your age, the letters “SPd” will appear in the Fat Calories/ Calories/Pulse display and the maximum speed

setting of the program will begin to flash in the Time/Distance display. If desired, press the + and

buttons below the matrix to change the maxi- mum speed setting.

Press the Start button or the Speed + button to

6 start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the incline trainer will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each pulse program is divided into several one- minute segments. (The Time/Distance display will show how long the program will last.) One target heart rate setting is programmed for each seg- ment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive seg- ments.

The target heart

rate setting for the first segment

will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the ma- trix. The target

heart rate settings

for the next seven 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 and a series of tones will sound. In addition, the Speed/Pace display and the Incline/Elevation dis- play will flash. When the first segment ends, all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. The target heart rate setting for the sec- ond segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column.

During each segment, the console will compare your heart rate to the target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed of the walking belt will auto-

matically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the pro- gram (see step 5 on this page) and your heart rate is still too far below the current target heart rate, the incline of the incline trainer will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

The program will continue in this way until the tar- get heart rate setting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column and the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the incline trainer may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Fat Calories/ Calories/Pulse display and the speed and incline of the incline trainer may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. The time will begin to flash in the Time/Distance display. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Speed + button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the incline trainer will automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
