The right display—This display will show the dis- tance that you have walked or run, the number of 1/4-mile laps you have completed, the speed of the walking belt, and the approximate numbers of calories and fat calories you have burned (see FAT BURNING on page 25).

The right display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor. In addi- tion, during heart rate programs the right display will show a heart rate bar that shows your heart rate as a percentage of your age-predicted maxi- mum heart rate (see step 3 on page 18 for an ex- planation of your age-predicted maximum heart rate). For example, if four to six segments of the bar appear, your heart rate is between 60% and 70% of your age-predicted maximum heart rate.

Heart Rate Bar

Note: The console can display speed and dis- tance in either miles or kilometers. The letters “MPH” or “Km/H” will appear in the right display to show which unit of measurement is selected. To change the unit of measurement, see HOW TO USE THE INFORMATION MODE on page 20. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.

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

6 Measure your heart rate if desired.

make sure that your hands are clean. Next, hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting on the metal contacts; avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped in- dicator in the right display will flash each time your heart beats, 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.

Note: The handgrip pulse sensor is intended to be used only for heart rate measurement. Do not use the handgrip pulse sensor as a handlebar. Always hold the handrails for support when you are not measuring your heart rate.

7 Turn on the fan if desired.

To turn on the fan, press the button below the fan. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the but- ton a third time. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will automatically turn off after a few minutes.

When you are finished exercising, remove the

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 become damaged. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a se- cure place. Note: If the displays remain lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. See HOW TO USE THE INFOR- MATION MODE on page 20 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. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmill’s electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.

Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition,
