Press the Start button or the Speed + button to

7 start the program.

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

During heart rate pro- grams, the matrix in the left display will show a heart beat symbol. Each time a heart beat is detected, a peak will appear.

Each heart rate program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment. Note: If the Self Select program is selected, the same target heart rate is programmed for all segments.

During each segment, the console will compare your heart rate to the target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed of the walking belt will auto- matically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the pro- gram (see step 5 on page 17) and your heart rate is too far below the current target heart rate, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

During the last three seconds of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the incline setting and the speed setting will flash in the two displays.

The program will continue until the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the right display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may auto- matically decrease.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.
