HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
During heart rate program 21, your heart rate will re-
main near a target heart rate setting that you select
.
During heart rate programs 22, 23, and 24, your heart
rate will reach approximately 85% of your
age-pre-
dicted maximum heart rate.
(Note: Your age-predicted
maximum heart rate is calculated by subtracting your
age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old,
your age-predicted maximum heart rate is 190 beats
per minute).
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Note: You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use
aheart rate program. While using the chest pulse
sensor, do not use the handgrip pulse sensor.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.
See HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE
SENSOR on page 12.
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 15.
Select a heart rate program.
To select a heart rate program, press the Program
(PROG.) button repeatedly until “P21,” “P22,”
“P23,” or “P24” appears in the right display.
If heart rate program 21 is
selected, apulse symbol
will scroll across the matrix
in the left display. Each time
aheartbeat is detected, a
peak will appear.
If heart rate program 22,
23, or 24 is selected, apro-
file of the target heart rate
settings of the program will
appear in the matrix in the
left display.
Enter a target heart rate setting for the
program.
If heart rate program 21 is
selected, the word “PULSE”
will appear in the right dis-
play and the target heart rate
setting for the program will
begin to flash. If desired,
change the target heart rate
setting by pressing the in-
crease or decrease button
below the matrix (see EXER-
CISE INTENSITY on page 30).
If heart rate program 22, 23, or 24 is selected,
the word “PULSE” will appear in the right display
and the maximum target heart rate setting of the
program will begin to flash. If desired, change the
maximum target heart rate setting by pressing the
increase or decrease button below the matrix (see
EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 30). Note: If the
maximum target heart rate setting is changed, the
intensity level of the entire program will change.
Press the Start button to start the program.
Amoment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Heart rate program 21 is divided into several
one-minute segments. The same target heart rate
setting is programmed for all segments. Note: For
ashorter workout, simply stop the program before
it ends.
Heart rate programs 22, 23, and 24 are divided
into 30 one-minute segments. One target heart
rate setting is programmed for each segment.
(The same target heart rate setting may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive segments.)
