OW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
During heart rate program 9, your heart rate will reach
a
pproximately 85% of your
a
ge-predicted maximum
heart rate.
(Note: Your age-predicted maximum heart
rate is calculated by subtracting your age from 220.
For example, if you are 30 years old, your age-pre-
dicted maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute).
During heart rate program 10, your heart rate will re-
main near a target heart rate setting that you select
.
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sen-
sor to use a heart rate program. While using the
chest pulse sensor, do not use the handgrip pulse
sensor.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.
See page 22.
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 13.
Select a heart rate program.
To select a heart rate program, press the Program
(PRGM.) button repeatedly until “P-9” or “P-10”
appears in the right display.
If heart rate program 9 is
selected, a profile of the
target heart rate settings of
the program will appear in
the matrix in the left display.
If heart rate program 10 is
selected, a pulse symbol will
s
croll across the matrix in the
left display. Each time a
h
eartbeat is detected, a peak
will appear.
Enter a target heart rate setting for the
program.
If heart rate program 9 is
selected,
the word “RATE”
will appear in the left display
and the maximum target
heart rate setting of the pro-
gram will begin to flash. If
desired, change the maxi-
mum target heart rate setting
by pressing the increase or
decrease button below the
matrix
(see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 28).
Note: If the maximum target heart rate setting is
changed, the intensity level of the entire program
will change.
If heart rate program 10 is selected, the word
“RATE” will appear in the left display and the tar-
get heart rate setting for the program will begin to
flash. If desired, change the target heart rate set-
ting by pressing the increase or decrease button
below the matrix (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on
page 28).
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Heart rate program 9 is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. (The same target
heart rate setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.)
Heart rate program 10 is divided into several
one-minute segments. The same target heart rate
setting is programmed for all segments. Note: For
a shorter workout, simply stop the program before
it ends.
