The left side of the display
will show the elapsed time, the distance that you have walked or run, and the incline level of the
treadmill. Note: When a
program is selected, the display will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time.
The right side of the dis- play will show the ap- proximate number of calories you have burned while walking or
running, the speed of the
walking belt, and your pace in minutes per mile. The right side of the display will also show your heart rate when you use the thumb pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.
Note: The console can display speed and dis- tance in either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of measurement is selected or to change the unit of measurement, see THE IN- FORMATION MODE on page 17. Note: For sim- plicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.
To reset the display, 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 thumb pulse sensor and the optional chest pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your left thumb on the pulse sen- sor (see the drawing on page 13). Do not press
too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted and your pulse may not be de- tected. When your pulse is detected, a heart- shaped indicator in the right display will flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes will ap- pear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for at least 15 seconds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to stand still while measuring your heart rate.
7 Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan offers two speed settings. To select a speed setting or to turn off the fan, press the Fan button repeatedly. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt stops, the fan will automatically turn off after a few minutes.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
8 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 the treadmill is folded to the storage posi- tion or the treadmill will be damaged. Next, re- move the key from the console and put it in a se- cure place. Note: If the display remains lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. See page 17 and turn off the demo mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and unplug the power cord.
