SPEED display--This display shows the current speed of the walking belt.
PULSE display--This display shows your heart rate. To use the pulse display, first stand on the foot rails and place your thumb on the pulse sensor as shown. The pulse sensor is pressure-activated. Fully press down the sensor. Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. Next, slightly raise your thumb until the heart-shaped indicator next to the PULSE display flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this level. After 5 to 10 seconds, your pulse will be displayed. If the pulse displayed appears to be too high or too low, or your pulse is not displayed, lift your thumb off the sensor and allow the display to reset. Press down again on the sensor as described above. Make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown, and that you are applying the proper amount of pressure to the sensor. Try the pulse sensor several times until you become familiar with the pulse sensor.
Another method of finding your pulse is to gently press down on the sensor until the top of the sensor is just above the surface of the console. Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. After a few seconds, the heart-shaped indicator will flash each time your heart beats. After another 5 to 10 seconds, your pulse will be displayed, if your pulse is not displayed, make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown, and that you are applying the proper amount of pressure to the sensor. Remember to stand still while measuring your pulse.
