4 Enter a maximum speed setting.

After you have entered your age, the letters

“SPd” and the maximum speed setting of the pro-

gram will begin to flash in the Speed display. If

desired, press the Faster or Slower button to change the maximum speed setting.

5 Hold the pulse sensor.

To use a pulse program, you must hold the pulse sensor. It is not necessary to hold the pulse sensor continuously during the program; however, you should hold the pulse sensor frequently for the pro- gram to operate properly. Each time you hold the pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When you are not holding the pulse sensor, the letters “PLS” will appear in the Calories/Pulse display in- stead of your heart rate.

Press the Start button or the Faster button to

6 start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed set- ting of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each pulse program is divided into either 20 or 30 one-minute periods. One target heart rate is pro- grammed for each period. Note: The same target heart rate may be programmed for two or more consecutive periods.

When the first period ends, all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. The tar- get heart rate setting for the second period will then be shown in the flashing Current Period col- umn.

During each period, the console will compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed of the walking belt will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set- ting. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the program (see step 4 at the left) and your heart rate is still too far below the target heart rate setting, you can increase the incline of the treadmill to bring your heart rate closer to the tar- get heart rate setting.

The program will continue in this way until the tar- get heart rate setting for the last period is shown in the Current Period column and the last period ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed of the walking belt is too fast or too slow at any time during the program, you can ad- just the speed with the Slower or Faster button. However, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the speed of the treadmill may automatically change.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. The Time display will begin to flash. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Faster button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the speed of the treadmill may automatically change.
