HOW TO USE PULSE PROGRAMS 1 AND 2
Pulse programs 1 and 2 automatically control the speed and the incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a predetermined range during your workouts.
Follow the instructions below to use pulse programs 1 or 2.
1Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12.
2Select user 1, 2, or 3. See step 2 on page 13.
3heart rate setting.
If you enter your weight into the console, the CALS/FAT CALS display will be more accurate.
To use pulse programs 1 or 2, you must enter your age and a maximum heart rate setting. If
you have not entered this information, see HOW TO ENTER USER INFORMATION on page 12.Enter your weight, your age, and a maximum
4Put on the heart rate monitor.
The heart rate monitor must be worn when a pulse program is used. (See HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE MONITOR on page 7.) Note: A pulse pro- gram can be started without a heart rate reading; however, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically decrease if your heart rate is not detected during the program.
5Select the desired program.
When the key is inserted, the MANUAL mode will be selected. To select pulse program 1 or 2, press the MODE button repeatedly until the pulse
program 1 or 2 indicator lights. The first nineteen settings of the program you have selected will appear in the LED matrix (the function of the LED matrix will be explained later).
6to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the walking
belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and carefully begin walking.Press the START button or the SPEED + button
Pulse programs 1 and 2 consist of thirty, one- minute periods. One heart rate setting is pro- grammed for each period. The heart rate settings will be shown
in the LED matrix. The heart rate set-
ting of the first period will be shown in the flashing
CURRENT PERIOD column. The settings of the
next eighteen periods will be shown in the eighteen columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first period, both the CURRENT PERIOD column and the column to the right will flash and three tones will sound. All heart rate settings will then move one column to the left. The setting of the second period will then be shown in the CURRENT PERIOD column.
As the program progresses, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will change at any time to keep your heart rate near the setting shown in the CURRENT PERIOD column. The program will continue until the heart rate setting of the last pe- riod is shown in the CURRENT PERIOD column and the TIME display counts down to zero. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If your heart rate is not detected during the program, the letters ÒPLSÓ will flash in the PULSE display and the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically decrease. (See HEART RATE MONITOR
While the program is in progress, minor adjust- ments can be made to the speed or incline of the treadmill with the SPEED or INCLINE buttons. However, if you increase the speed, the incline will automatically decrease; if you decrease the speed, the incline will increase. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will increase. The console will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the heart rate setting shown in the CURRENT PERIOD column. Note: When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest setting, the speed cannot be decreased any further.
