To use the Weight Loss program, follow the steps found in Quick Steps to Work- ing Out on page 35. When the Course prompt appears, enter course number 19. (Age must be entered during the Setup prompts.) Once you have finished answer- ing the remaining Setup prompts, the following occurs:

•The display verifies that it detects a heart rate signal.You need to press the Speed ▲ key to begin your workout.

•The treadmill provides a 3-minute warm-up period before entering the Weight Loss 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 (55% of 220 minus your age) for your age during the 3-minute warm-up period, the Weight Loss Pro- gram begins concurrently. If, for some reason, a negative incline existed at the end of the warm-up period, the incline returns to zero percent.

Important: Once you exit the warm-up period and begin the course, the Incline ▼▲ keys no longer affect the actual incline of the treadmill. Instead the keys are used to change your target heart rate. If you change your target heart rate, the treadmill automatically readjusts the incline so that your heart rate remains on target.

•After the warm-up period, the treadmill automatically adjusts the incline to keep your heart rate at the selected target. Check the SmartRate® display to see if you are in your preferred zone (weight loss).

CAUTION: A warning message will appear if you go above your maximum recommended heart rate target zone. Heed the warning and get permis- sion from your personal physician before working out above the maxi- mum recommended zone for your age and fitness level. See Diagram 23 on page 38 for the recommended target zones.

•When you reach the time limit, a cool-down period begins.You can override the speed and incline by pressing the ▼ or ▲ keys.

Note:The speed remains constant, if you were at or below 0.5 mph (1.0 kph).

GOAL-BASED COURSES

These C966 courses (Distance Goal and Calorie Goal) are similar to the Manual course except that the user’s position and course duration are based on a “distance” or “calorie” goal.You can use the number keys or the appropriate ▼▲ keys any time during the course to change the incline or speed. When you complete the goal set for the course, the automatic cool-down period begins.

Note: A club time limit may exist for these courses. Refer to Club Information on page 21.
