miles you have walked or run.
¥ Fat Calories (FAT CALS)ÑThis mode shows the
approximate number of fat calories you have
burned. (See FAT BURNING on page 14.)
¥ Calories (CALS)ÑThis mode shows the approxi-
mate number of calories you have burned.
¥ ScanÑThis mode displays the other five modes,
for five seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
When the power is
turned on, the Scan
mode will be selected.
One mode arrow will
appear by the word
SCAN, and another
mode arrow will show
which mode is cur-
rently displayed.
If desired, the Speed,
Time, Distance, Fat
Calories or Calories
mode can be individu-
ally selected. Press
the MODE button re-
peatedly until the de-
sired mode arrow appears. Make sure that there is
not a mode arrow by the word SCAN.
If desired, press the ON/RESET button to reset
the displays.
Measure your heart rate, if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stand on
the foot rails and
place your thumb on
the pulse sensor as
shown. The pulse
sensor is pressure
activatedÑfully
press it down. Do not
press too hard, or
the circulation in
your thumb will be
restricted, and your
pulse will not be de-
tected. Next, raise your thumb slightly until the
heart-shaped indicator in the heart rate display
flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this level.
After a few seconds, three dashes will appear in
the display and then your heart rate will be shown.
Hold your thumb on the sensor for another 15 sec-
onds for the most accurate reading. If the dis-
played heart rate appears to be too high or too
low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your
thumb and allow the display to reset. Press down
again on the sensor as described above.
Make sure that your thumb is positioned as
shown, and that you are applying the proper
amount of pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the
sensor several times until you become familiar
with it. Remember to stand still while measuring
your heart rate.
Adjust the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline,
press the top or
bottom of the incline
control until the
desired incline level is
reached.
Turn off the display.
To turn off the display, simply wait for about
four minutes. If the walking belt is stationary and
the console buttons are not pressed for four min-
utes, the displays will turn off automatically.
