FAT BURNING on page 14). Every seven sec- onds, the display will change from one number to the other, as shown by the arrows in the display. This display will also show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5).

5Measure your pulse, if desired.

Stand on the foot rails and place your

hands on the metal contacts on the handrail. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts, and your fingers must be touching the lower contactsÑ

avoid moving

your hands. When your heart rate is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the CALS/FAT CALS/ PULSE display flashes steadily and a ÒPÓ appears in the display. After a few seconds, three dashes will appear in the display and your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate read- ing, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 sec- onds.

Try the sensor several times until you become familiar with it. Remember to stand still while mea- suring your pulse.
