Calories/Pulse

display

—This display

shows the approximate

numbers of

calories and

fat calories

you have

burned (see FAT BURN- ING on page 24). The

display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. The display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

Distance/Incline dis-

play —This display shows the distance that you have walked or run

and the incline level of the treadmill. The display

will change from one number to the other every few seconds. Note: Each time the incline changes,

the display will show the incline setting for several seconds.

Time/Pace display

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the manual mode

 

 

 

 

or the iFIT.com mode is

 

 

 

 

selected, this display will

 

 

 

show the elapsed time

 

 

 

 

and your current pace

 

 

 

 

(pace is measured in

minutes per mile

). The dis-

play will change from one number to the other

 

every few seconds. When a preset program or a

 

heart rate program is selected, the display will

 

show the time

remaining

in the program rather

than the elapsed time.

To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

 

 

You can measure your heart rate using either the

 

 

handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse

 

sensor.

 

 

 

 

To use the hand-

 

 

 

grip pulse sen-

 

 

 

sor, first make

 

 

 

sure that your

 

 

 

hands are clean.

 

 

 

Next, stand on

 

 

 

the foot rails

 

Contacts

 

and place your

 

 

 

 

hands on the

 

 

 

metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor. Your

 

palms should be resting on the upper contacts

 

 

and your fingers should be touching the lower

 

 

contacts.

Avoid

moving your hands

. When your

 

pulse is detected, two dashes (– –) will appear in

 

the Calories/Pulse display, and then your heart

 

rate will be shown.

For the most accurate heart

 

rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for

 

 

about 15 seconds.

Next, re-

 

move the key from the console and put it in a se-
