Enter a maximum speed setting.
After you have entered
your age, the letters
“SPd” and the maximum
speed setting of the pro-
gram will begin to flash
in the Speed display. If
desired, press the Faster or Slower button to
change the maximum speed setting.
Hold the pulse sensor.
To use a pulse program, you must hold the pulse
sensor. It is not necessary to hold the pulse sensor
continuously during the program; however, you
should hold the pulse sensor frequently for the pro-
gram to operate properly.
Each time you hold the
pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal
contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When
you are not holding the pulse sensor, the letters
“PLS” will appear in the Calories/Pulse display in-
stead of your heart rate.
Press the Start button or the Faster button to
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed set-
ting of the program. Hold the handrails and begin
walking.
Each pulse program is divided into either 20 or 30
one-minute periods. One target heart rate is pro-
grammed for each period. Note: The same target
heart rate may be programmed for two or more
consecutive periods.
The target heart rate
setting for the first pe-
riod will be shown in
the flashing Current
Period column of the
matrix. The target heart
rate settings for the
next three periods will
be shown in the
columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first period
of the program, both the Current Period column
and the column to the right will flash, the Speed
display will flash, and a series of tones will sound.
When the first period ends, all target heart rate
settings will move one column to the left. The tar-
get heart rate setting for the second period will
then be shown in the flashing Current Period col-
umn.
During each period, 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 reaches the maximum speed
setting of the program (see step 4 at the left) and
your heart rate is still too far below the target heart
rate setting, you can increase the incline of the
treadmill to bring your heart rate closer to the tar-
get heart rate setting.
The program will continue in this way until the tar-
get heart rate setting for the last period is shown
in the Current Period column and the last period
ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed of the walking belt is too fast or too
slow at any time during the program, you can ad-
just the speed with the Slower or Faster button.
However, when the console compares your heart
rate to the target heart rate setting, the speed of
the treadmill may automatically change.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. The Time display will begin to flash. To
restart the program, press the Start button or the
Faster 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 of
the treadmill may automatically change.
Follow your progress with the displays.
