HOW TO USE THE FITNESS TEST PROGRAM

The FITNESS TEST program is designed to estimate the relative fitness level you have achieved. For the best results, the FITNESS TEST program should be used at a time when your energy level is high; the pro- gram should not be used if you have already exercised during the day.

The FITNESS TEST program consists of up to seven 4- minute periods and is followed by a 2-minute cool-down period. The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will au- tomatically increase at the beginning of each 4-minute period. When your heart rate reaches 70% of your max- imum possible heart rate, the FITNESS TEST will end. After the 2-minute cool-down period, the console will display your estimated fitness level.

To use the program, follow the steps below.

1Insert the key into the console.

At the beginning of each 4-minute pe- riod, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically increase. The program will continue until your heart rate reaches 70% of your maximum possible heart rate and the current 4-minute period ends. The program will then be completed, regard- less of how many 4-minute periods remain.
