The treadmill will operate as if in the manual
mode during the warm-up stage. You control
both speed and grade. You may only increase
speed and grade to the preset maximum
values entered. It is important that you start at
a low level of perceived exertion and gradually
increase your work load over several minutes
until you approach your target heart rate. This
allows your body to adapt to your workout.
Increasing work load gradually will allow you
to enter the heart rate control stage without
overshooting your target.

If this occurs it may
take several minutes before the computer
software can control your heart rate. You may
overshoot and undershoot your target for
several minutes until control is achieved.
Wear the heart rate transmitter, provided
with your treadmill, directly against your skin,
1-2 inches below the pectoral muscles/breast
line. Initially the transmission signal for heart
rate may be erratic or non existent.
Perspiration on your skin is necessary for
proper transmission. The Heart ( ) LED will
flash, showing that the heart rate signal is
received.
