Warm-up Stage Instructions: The treadmill
will operate 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 target.

If this occurs it amy
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
or

editing target down).
Press

Continue to warm up. Do this only while
display is flashing or the software may exit
you from heart rate control.

You may only increase speed and grade to
the preset maximum values entered.

As your heart rate increases or decrease from
your target, the treadmill will automatically
make the adjustments to speed and/or grade
to keep your heart rate near your selected
target only while you are in the work interval.
Interval Training is one of the fastest ways to
increase cardiovascular fitness. The treadmill
will monitor your heart rate and adjust the
speed and/or grade while in the work interval.
When you enter the rest interval, there will be
a
5500%% MMEETT
reduction. Your work level will
remain the same throughout the rest
period to allow your heart rate to decrease.
Your heart rate will be monitored during this
time, but there will be no adjustment to speed
or grade in the rest interval.
When you return to the work interval, your
speed will return to a calculated average of
the speeds and/or grades which were used
in the previous work intervals. Your speed
and/or grade may increase or decrease while
you are in your work interval. This averaging
of speed and/or grade enables you to return
to a work level which will bring you near your
selected target heart rate.
NNOOTTEE::
If you feel that your selected target
is too high or too low, you can change your
target heart rate as follows, when you are in
