Distance/Laps
displayThis display
shows the distance that
you have walked or run
and the number of 1/4-
mile laps you have com-
pleted. The display will alternate between one
number and the other every few seconds, as
shown by the indicators in the display.
Speed displayThis
display shows the speed
of the walking belt.
Note: The console can
display speed and dis-
tance in either miles or
kilometers. The letters
MPH or KPH will ap-
pear in the Speed display
to show which unit of measurement is selected.
To change the unit of measurement, hold down
the Stop button, insert the key into the console,
and continue to hold the Stop button for a moment.
An E for English miles or an M for metric kilo-
meters will appear in the Fat Calories/Calories/
Pulse display. Press the Speed
button to change
the unit of measurement. When the desired unit of
measurement is selected, remove the key and
then reinsert it.
Fat Calories/Calories/
Pulse display
This dis-
play shows the approxi-
mate numbers of fat calo-
ries
and calories you
have burned (see FAT
BURNING on page 22). The display will alternate
between one number and the other every few sec-
onds, as shown by the indicators in the display.
The display will also show your heart rate when
you use the pulse sensor (see step 6).
Measure your heart rate, if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stand on
the foot rails and
place your thumb on
the pulse sensor.
Do not press too
hard, or the circu-
lation in your
thumb will be restricted and your pulse will not
be detected.
After a few seconds, the heart-
shaped indicator in the Fat Calories/Calories/
Pulse display will begin to flash, one or two dashes
( ) 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.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
level. The incline must be at the lowest level
when the treadmill is raised to the storage po-
sition or the treadmill will be damaged.
Next,
remove the key from the console and put the key
in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off circuit breaker near the power cord to
the off position.
