Follow your progress with the track and the

4 displays.

The track—The track

represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As you walk or run on the treadmill, the

indicators around the track will light in succes-

sion until the entire track is lit. The track will then darken and the indicators will again begin to light in succession. The center of the track will show the number of laps that you have completed.

The Fat Calories/

Calories/Pulse display—This display shows the approximate numbers of fat calories

and calories you have

burned (see FAT BURNING on page 17). The dis- play will change from one number to the other every few seconds. The display will also show your heart rate when you use the pulse sensor (see step 5).

The Time/Distance

display—This display shows the elapsed time and the distance that

you have walked or run. The display will change

from one number to the other every few seconds. When the Stop button is pressed, the elapsed time will flash.

The Speed display— This display shows the speed of the walking belt.

Note: The console can

display speed and dis- tance in either miles or kilometers. An “MPH” or

a “Km/H” will appear in the Speed display to

show which unit of measurement is selected. To change the unit of measurement, first hold down the Stop button, insert the key into the console, and continue to hold the Stop button for a moment. An “E” for English miles or an “M” for metric kilo- meters will appear in the Speed display. Press the Speed increase button to change the unit of mea- surement. When the desired unit of measurement is selected, remove the key and then reinsert it.

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

5 Measure your heart rate if desired.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your thumb on the pulse sen- sor. Do not press too

hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be re-

stricted and your pulse will not be detected.

After a few seconds, the heart-shaped indicator in the Fat Calories/Calories/Pulse display will begin to flash, one or two dashes (– –) will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for about 15 seconds for the most accurate reading.

If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds. Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor as de- scribed above. Remember to stand still while mea- suring your heart rate.

To turn on the fan, press the Fan button. To turn

on the fan at high speed, press the button a second

time. To turn off the fan, press the button a third

time. Note: If the fan is left on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will automatically turn off after a few minutes.
