When the cool-down segment is completed, the walking belt will slow to a stop. After the fitness test program is com-

pleted, your fitness level will be shown in the

Time display. There are ten fitness levels— fitness level 10 (FL:10) is the highest. Remem-

ber, the fitness program is intended only to indicate your relative fitness level.

Note: The Speed and Incline buttons will not function while the fitness test program is selected. If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Heart Rate/Calories display. If your pulse is not detected during the last thirty seconds of any 4-minute segment (after 4 minutes, after 8 minutes, etc.), the fitness test pro- gram will end and the Time display will show a fit- ness level of 0 (FL: 0).

The fitness test program cannot be stopped tem- porarily and then restarted. However, the program can be stopped at any time with the Stop button. The Time display will then show an estimated fit- ness level.

6 When the program has ended, remove the key.

See step 6 on page 13.

HOW TO USE THE PULSE-DRIVEN PROGRAM

CAUTION: If you have heart prob- lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse-driven program. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.
