The diagrams beside the heart rate program indi-
cators show how the target heart rate will change
during the programs. During the 85% Max. pro-

85% of your estimated maximum heart rate; dur-
ing the Self Select program, your heart rate will re-
main near a level that you select.
Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is de-
termined by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated
maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute
(220 – 30 = 190).
During heart rate pro-
grams, the matrix will
show a moving graphic
that represents your
heart rate. Each time a
heartbeat is detected,
an additional peak will
appear.

gram is selected, the
word “AGE” and the cur-
rent age setting will flash

ready entered your age, simply press the Enter
button. If you have not entered your age, press
the + and – buttons beside the Enter button to
enter your age. Then, press the Enter button.
Enter a maximum speed.
After you have entered
your age, the letters
“SPd” and the maximum
speed setting of the pro-
gram will flash in the
Incline/Heart Rate dis-
play. If desired, press the + and – buttons beside
the Enter button to change the maximum speed
setting. When the desired setting is shown, press
the Enter button.
If the 85% Max. program is selected, go to step
7. If the Self Select program is selected, go to
step 6.

After you have entered a
maximum speed setting,
the letters “PLS” and the

for the program will flash
in the Incline/Heart Rate
display. If desired, press the + and – buttons be
