HOW TO USE A PULSE PROGRAM

CAUTION: If you have heart prob- lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse pro- grams. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

1 Put on the optional chest pulse sensor.

You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 18) to use a pulse program.

2 Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12.

3 Select a pulse program.

To select a pulse pro- gram, press the Pulse Control Programs but- ton repeatedly until one of the two pulse pro- gram indicators lights.

If the first pulse pro- gram is selected, a profile of the target heart rate settings of the program will scroll across the matrix.

If the second pulse program is selected, a pulse symbol will scroll across the matrix.

4 Enter a target heart rate setting.

If the first pulse pro-

gram is selected, the maximum target heart rate setting of the pro- gram will flash in the

Calories/Pulse display.

If desired, press the increase and decrease but- tons beside the Enter button to change the maxi-

mum target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE IN- TENSITY on page 23). Then, press the Enter but- ton. Note: If the maximum target heart rate setting is changed, the intensity level of the entire pro- gram will change.

If the second pulse program is selected, the target heart rate setting for the entire program will flash in the Calories/Pulse display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons beside the Enter button to change the target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 23). Then, press the Enter button.

Press the Start button or the Speed increase

5 button to 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.

The first pulse program is divided into 30 one- minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. (The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.) The second pulse program is divided into 100 one-minute segments. The same target heart rate setting is programmed for all segments. Note: For a shorter workout, sim- ply stop the program before it ends.

If the first pulse program is selected, the target

heart rate setting for the

first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment col- umn of the matrix. The target heart rate settings

for the next four seg-

ments will be shown in the columns to the right. When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a series of tones will sound.

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