The left side of the dis-

play will show the incline level of the treadmill, the elapsed time, and the distance you have walked or run. 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 display will show the speed of the walking

belt, the approximate number of calories you

have burned, and your

pace (in minutes per mile). The right side of the display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip 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 measure- ment is selected, hold

down the Stop button while inserting the key into the console. An “E” for English miles or an “M” for metric kilometers will appear in the right side of the display. Press the Speed increase button to change the unit of measurement if desired. When the desired unit of measurement is selected, re- move the key. Note: For simplicity, all instruc- tions in this section refer to miles.

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

Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, make sure that your hands are clean. 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.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail—avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart symbol in the right side of the display will begin to flash, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
