DISPLAY
A user must enter an AGE (during the program Setup prompts) and wear a
chest strap, while in a program, before the blinking segment in the bar graph can
show the zone that his or her heart rate is in, either: Weight Loss or Cardiovascular.
Weight Loss Zone: Maintaining the heart rate between 55% and 70% of the
user’s maximum aerobic heart rate, helps burn enough calories that, when
continued on a regular basis for 30 minutes or more, provides the greatest
fat-burning results.
Cardiovascular Zone: Maintaining the heart rate between 70% and 85% of
the user’s maximum aerobic heart rate, helps (when continued on a regular
basis for 30 minutes or more) improve the user’s overall cardiovascular/
cardiorespiratory fitness level.
Important: During a program, a user’s heart rate must be above 40 beats per
minute before the segment begins to blink. Note that pressing QUICKSTART,
at the Precor banner display, disables the SmartRate
®
display feature.
HEART RATE: The heart rate display lets the user monitor their heart rate.
When a heart beat is detected, the number appears in the small upper right
display (refer to Diagram 20). If the user does not grasp the grips on the handrail
or wear the optional chest strap, a heart rate will not be detected and no pulse
rate appears.
SETUP MODE AND PROMPTS
From the Precor banner, a user accesses the Setup mode which lets him or her
“set” the program, workout time, weight, and age parameters prior to working out.
The Precor banner is the “starting point” to begin a workout. It indicates that the
C936i is ready to accept user entries. If the banner does not appear on the display,
press the RESET key. If the display appears blank, make sure that the treadmill is
turned ON.
Note: Key presses to the INCLINE ▼▲ or SPEED ▼▲ keys are ignored when
the banner is being displayed. Refer to page 33 for more information about the
keypad.
PROGRAM: The abbreviated program name and profile appears on the display.
The and keys allow the user to scroll through the available programs. The
left portion of the display presents the abbreviated name of the program, while
the right half displays the program profile. The text blinks indicating that it is
awaiting approval. To choose the selection being displayed and continue in Setup
mode, press Enter. (Refer to
The Setup Mode and the QuickStart Feature
on
page 30.)
Note: Depending on the program that is selected, the user may be prompted for
other information. Refer to
