ress the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
m
ill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
E
ach pulse control program is divided into 20 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate is pro-
grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar-
get heart rate setting may be programmed for two
or more consecutive segments.
The target heart rate setting for the first segment
will be shown in the flashing Current Segment col-
umn of the matrix. The target heart rate settings for
the next four segments will be shown in the
columns to the right.
When only
three sec-
onds remain
in the first
segment of
the program,
both the
Current Segment column and the column to the
right will flash and a series of tones will sound. In
addition, the speed setting and the incline setting
will flash in the display to alert you. When the first
segment ends,
all target heart rate settings will
move one column to the left.
The target heart rate
setting for the second segment will then be shown
in the flashing Current Segment column.
During each segment, the console will compare
your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate setting, the speed of the walking belt
will automatically increase or decrease to bring
your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set-
ting. If the speed of the walking belt reaches 7.5
mph and your heart rate is still too far below the
current target heart rate setting, the incline of the
treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting.
The program will continue in this way until the tar-
get heart rate setting for the last segment is
s
hown in the Current Segment column and the
last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow
t
o a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low
at any time during the program, you can adjust the
setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However,
each time the console compares your heart rate to
the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or in-
cline of the treadmill may automatically change to
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate
setting.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters “PLS” will flash in the display and the
speed and incline of the treadmill may automati-
cally decrease. If this occurs, see the instructions
included with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. To restart the program, press the Start but-
ton or the Speed increase button. The walking belt
will begin to move at 1 mph. When the console
compares your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill
may automatically change to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting.
Follow your progress with the display.
