5.Follow your progress with the displays. The matrix—When you

select the manual mode, the matrix will display a track that rep- resents 1/4 mile (400 meters). As you exer- cise, the indicators

around the track will appear in succession until the entire track appears. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to appear in succession.

The Time display— The Time display will show the elapsed time. Note: When a workout is selected, the display will show the time re-

maining in the workout instead of the elapsed time.

The Distance/Incline display—The Distance/Incline display can show the distance that you have walked or run. The display will

also show the incline of the treadmill for several seconds each time the incline changes.

The Calorie/Pulse dis- play—The Calorie/Pulse display can show the approxi- mate number of calories you have burned. The

display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

The Speed display— The Speed display will show the speed of the walking belt.

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

6.Measure your heart rate if desired.

Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and the optional chest pulse sensor at the same

time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately. See page 25 for information about the optional chest pulse sensor.

Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail— avoid moving your hands. Hold the contacts for approximately ten seconds. When your pulse is detected, several dashes will appear in the 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.

7.Turn on the fan if desired.

The fan features high and low speed settings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes.

8.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 when you fold the treadmill to the storage posi- tion, or you may damage the treadmill. Next, re- move 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 treadmillʼs electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.
