C956i CUSTOM PROGRAMS

Two custom programs exist on the C956i. The second custom program is avail- able only if the Fitness Test is disabled. The club can preset the incline on these programs. Refer to Club Information.

RANDOM PROGRAM

The Random program is similar to the preset incline programs. The maximum range that the incline can be changed is fixed at plus or minus 4%. Every time a user chooses this program, the program profile changes.

C956i HEART RATE PROGRAM

Once you set your target heart rate and the running belt’s speed, the C956i Heart Rate program monitors your heart rate and automatically maintains it within a few beats per minute (bpm) of the selected target. Blinking lights on the SmartRate bar graph appear to show the “zone” that you are in.

The treadmill provides a 3-minute warm-up period before entering the Heart Rate program. During this time, you may make changes to the incline by using the numeric keypad or INCLINE ▲▼ keys. Use the SPEED ▼▲ keys to set the running belt’s speed.

Note: If your heart rate moves into the target zone for your age during the 3-minute warm-up period, the Heart Rate Program begins concurrently.

After the warm-up period, the treadmill automatically adjusts the incline to
