Warm-up Stage Instructions: The treadmill
will operate as if in the manual mode during
the warm up stage so you can control both
speed and grade. 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 tar-
get.

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 the 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.
NNOOTTEE::
If while you are warming up you feel
that your selected target is too high or too
low, you can edit your target to a new value as
follows:
Press (The target value message will
appear,
TTAARRGGEETT XXXXXX
))
. Using , edit
heart rate (only 5 beat changes are permitted
when editing target). Do this only while dis-
play is flashing or the software may exit you
from heart rate control.
Press to set new heart rate target.
Continue to warm up.

Remember, warm
up slowly! Continue increasing speed and/or
grade to gradually increase your heart rate.
You may only increase speed and grade to
the preset maximum values entered.
When your heart rate is within 15 beats from
the target, the message center will read:

your heart rate is 10 beats away from your
selected target heart rate, the message
center will read:

The computer software will take control of
the speed and grade at this point to allow

operation. By taking control
before you actually reach your target heart
rate, the computer reduces the chances of
overshooting your target heart rate.
NNOOTTEE::
Do not touch
. Touching any key before pressing
, or first will immediately exit
you from heart rate control and begin your
cool down stage.
The treadmill will now control all speed and
grade changes. The treadmill will gradually
continue to increase your workload until your
heart rate reaches your selected target.
When your heart rate is at the selected
target, the message will read:
