(– –) will appear, and then your heart rate will be
shown. Hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for
about 15 seconds for the most accurate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor as de-
scribed above. Remember to stand still while mea-
suring your heart rate.

HOW TO USE THE HAND WEIGHTS
To exercise your upper
body as you walk on
the treadmill, hold the
2-pound weights at
your sides or press the
weights above your
head. To increase the
intensity of your exer-
cise, use the 3-pound
or 5-pound weights. The hand weights can be stored in
the weight rack.
WARNING: Do not use the hand weights at speeds
faster than walking speeds. Using weights and not
holding the handrails may compromise your ability
to maintain your balance. Exercises using weights
should be attempted only by experienced users.
