NordicTrack NTL19806.5 user manual Measure your heart rate if desired, Turn on the fan if desired

Select a display mode and follow your

5 progress with the exercise information on the screen.

As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can display the following exercise information:

•The elapsed time. Note: When a program is selected, the screen will show the time remain- ing in the program instead of the elapsed time.

•The distance that you have walked or run. Note: The console can display distance and speed in either miles or kilometers (see HOW TO USE THE INFORMATION MODE on page 23). For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.

•The speed of the walking belt.

•The approximate number of calories you have burned.

•The incline level of the treadmill. Note: The in- cline level of the treadmill will be displayed only when you press the Incline buttons.

•Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be displayed only when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.

•When the manual mode is selected, the screen can show a track that represents 1/4 mile (400 meters). As you walk or run on the treadmill, the indicators around the track will appear in succession until the entire track appears. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to appear in succession.

While the television is off, you can select either of two display modes—a track and some of the exer- cise information, or all of the exercise information. While the television is on, you can select any of three display modes—the information can be dis- played on the right side of the screen, on the bot- tom of the screen, or the information can be turned off while you watch the television. Press the Display button repeatedly to select the desired dis- play mode.

To reset the console, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.

6 Measure your heart rate if desired.

You can measure your heart rate using either the chest pulse sensor (see page 12) or the handgrip pulse sensor. Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and the chest pulse sensor at the same time, the display will not show your heart rate ac- curately.

Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of
clear plastic
from the
metal con-	Contacts
tacts. In addi-
tion, make
sure that
your hands are clean.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts—avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will appear on the screen. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

7 Turn on the fan if desired.

The fan features high and low speed settings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes.

When you are finished exercising, remove the

8 key from the console.

Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting when you fold the treadmill to the storage posi- tion or you may damage the treadmill. Next, re- move the key from the console and put it in a se- cure place.

When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and unplug the power cord. Important: If you do not do this, the electrical components of the tread- mill may wear prematurely.
