5. Follow your progress with the displays.
The lower left display— As you exercise, the lower left display can show the elapsed time and the distance that you
have walked or run. The
lower left display will also show the incline of the treadmill each time the incline level changes.
The lower right dis- play—The lower right
display can show the ap- proximate number of calories that you have
burned and the speed of
the walking belt. The display also shows your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 6).
The upper dis- play—The upper display can show
the elapsed time,
the distance that you have walked
or run, the approximate number of calories that you have burned, or the speed of the walking belt. Press the Display button repeatedly until the upper display shows the information that you are most interested in viewing. Note: While information is shown in the upper display, the same information will not be shown in the lower displays.
To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using the |

sensor, remove |

the sheets of |
| |
clear plastic from |
| |
the metal con- | Contacts | |
tacts on the pulse | ||

bar. In addition, |
| |
make sure that |
| |
your hands are clean. |
|
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the pulse bar with your palms on the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, a heart symbol in the lower right display will flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
7.When you are finished exercising, remove the 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 or you may damage the treadmill when you fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure 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 treadmill’s electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.
