5. Monitor your progress with the display.
When the manual mode is selected, the console
o
ffers four display modes. The display mode that
you select will determine which workout informa-
t
ion is shown. Press the Display Mode button re-
peatedly to select the desired display mode.
As you walk or run on the incline trainer, the dis-
play can show the following workout information:
The elapsed time.
The distance that you have walked or run.
The number of vertical feet you have climbed.
The approximate number of calories burned per
hour.
The speed of the walking belt.
The incline level of the incline trainer.
The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate can be
displayed only while you use the handgrip pulse
sensor (see step 6).
Regardless of which display mode you select, the
speed or incline setting will appear in the display for
a few seconds each time you change the setting.
If desired, adjust the volume by pressing the
Volume (VOL) increase and decrease buttons on
the console.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove
the sheets of plastic from the metal contacts if nec-
essary. In addition, make sure that your hands are
clean.
To measure
your heart
rate, stand on
t
he walking
platform and
h
old the metal
contacts on
the handrail—
avoid moving
your hands.
Hold the contacts for approximately ten seconds.
When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will
be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, continue to hold the contacts for
about 15 seconds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan has high and low speed settings. Press the
Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to
turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the
walking belt stops, the fan will automatically turn off
after a few minutes.
8. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the walking platform and press the Stop
button. If the console is in demo mode (see THE
INFORMATION MODE on page 19), the incline will
automatically rise to the maximum incline level.
Next, remove the key from the console and put it in
a secure place.
When you are finished using the incline trainer,
switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” posi-
tion and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If
you do not do this, the incline trainerʼs electri-
cal components may wear prematurely.
