Using the HRC Program
When the warm-up period concludes:
• The treadmill automatically adjusts the incline to keep
your heart rate at the selected target. Pressing the
INCLINE arrow keys no longer affects the lift motor and
incline, but does change the target heart rate. Check the
SmartRate display to see if you are maintaining your
preferred zone (weight loss or cardiovascular). Check the
Heart Rate display to determine your actual heart rate.
• You can change the target heart rate, speed, or incline, but
doing so affects the unit’s ability to maintain your target
heart rate in the preferred zone. It takes time for the
treadmill to readjust the incline so that your heart rate
remains on target.
Note: If you are having difficulty with the heart rate
features, refer to Troubleshooting Heart Rate.
Custom (CST1 or CST2) Programs
Two custom programs are available with each user ID. As
you exercise, you customize the program by determining the
speed and incline settings for each 1-minute column along
the length of the profile. As each column elapses, the speed
and incline for that column is stored in memory.
The subsequent columns repeat the last programmed speed
and incline and are reflected in the program profile. Change
the speed or incline using the arrow keys. When you
complete the program, the settings are automatically
recalled using the same user ID and program number.
