you exercise, the left dis-
play can show the
e
lapsed time and the ap-
proximate number of
c
alories that you have
burned. The display also shows the incline of the
treadmill when the incline changes.
The right display—The

To reset the displays, 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 clear plastic from the metal contacts.
In addition, make sure that your hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and hold the contacts for approximately
10 seconds—avoid moving your hands. When
your pulse is
detected, one
or two dashes
w
ill appear in
the display and
t
hen your heart
rate will be
shown. For
the most ac-
curate heart
rate reading,
continue to hold the contacts for about 15 sec-
onds.
7. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest set-
ting or you may damage the treadmill when you
fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the
key from the console and put it in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and
unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do
not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
