Owner’s Manual: Heart Rate Features 14
Using SmartRate
The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain your
heart rate in the target zone best suited to your specific
needs. All 15 LEDs may light during a workout. When the
treadmill detects a heart rate, a single LED blinks and
indicates the zone that your heart rate is in, either weight loss
or cardiovascular.
The 15 LEDs in the SmartRate display are color-coded. A
pulsating red LED indicates you are outside the
recommended heart rate target zone. Yellow LEDs indicate
when you are exercising within the weight loss zone. Green
LEDs indicate when you are exercising within the
cardiovascular zone.
Refer to Table 1 to see the relationship between the
pulsating LED and your target heart rate.
The SmartRate indicator lights do not appear when:
• You press QUICKSTART at the banner.
• You bypass the AGE prompt.
• You do not wear or improperly position the chest strap.
• You fail to grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips for five
to ten seconds.
Note: Review the information on the QUICKSTART card that
accompanies your literature packet. It explains how to adjust
the chest strap.
Table 1. Heart rate target zones and SmartRate LEDs
CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed 85% of
your maximum aerobic heart rate. If it does, immediately
reduce your speed or, if possible, adjust the incline to
return your heart rate to your physician-recommended
target zone.
