4 Enter your age.

You must enter your age to use a pulse-driven program. To enter your age, press the + and – but- tons above the ENTER AGE/WT button. The but- tons can be held down to enter your age quickly. The age range is 20 to 80 years. When your age is shown, press the ENTER AGE/WT button.

If you have selected the CARDIO WALK PULSE program or the ENDURANCE PULSE program, go to step 6. If you have selected the MANUAL PULSE program, go to step 5.

5 Enter a target heart rate setting.

After you have entered your age, the words ENTER PERCENT and the current target heart rate setting for the program will be shown in the main display. The target heart rate setting repre- sents a percentage of your estimated maximum heart rate. Your estimated maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age. For example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 – 30 = 190). If you are 30 years old, a target heart rate setting of 50 is equal to 95 beats per minute (50% of 190 is 95).

If desired, you can change the target heart rate setting by pressing the + and – buttons above the ENTER AGE/WT button. The buttons can be held down to change the target heart rate setting quickly. The target heart rate setting can be from 50% to 85% of your estimated maximum heart rate.

6 Press the START button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and in- cline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each pulse-driven program is divided into one- minute segments. The main display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time re- maining in the current segment of the program. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. (During the MANUAL PULSE pro- gram, the same target heart rate setting will be programmed for all segments.)

When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, a series of tones will sound and then the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting for the next segment. The speed and/or incline setting will flash in the main display to alert you before the speed and/or incline changes. The program will continue until no time remains in the program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed and 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 automatically increase; if you increase the speed, the incline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you de- crease the incline, the speed will increase. The treadmill will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the target heart rate setting for the cur- rent segment. Note: When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest set- ting, the speed cannot be decreased any further.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters PLS will flash in the main display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may auto- matically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instructions on page 8.

To stop the program at any time, press the STOP button. Pulse-driven programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a pulse-driven program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.

7 Follow your progress with the main display.
