Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and hold the pulse bar with your palms on the
metal contacts for approximately ten seconds;
avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is

When you are finished using the treadmill, press
the power switch into the off position and unplug
the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do
this, the treadmillʼs electrical components may
wear prematurely.
