4. Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
r
ails and place your left thumb on the pulse sensor
(see the drawing on page 12). Do not press too
h
ard, or the circulation in your thumb will be re-
stricted and your pulse may not be detected.
When your pulse is detected, a heart-shaped indi-
cator in the lower right display will flash each time
your heart beats, and your heart rate will be
shown. For the most accurate heart rate read-
ing, hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for at
least 15 seconds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or
too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition
your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to
stand still while measuring your heart rate.
5. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
remove the key from the console. Put the key in a
secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and
unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do
not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE TREADMILL
To vary the intensity of your exercise, the incline of the
t
readmill can be changed. There are two incline levels.
Before changing the incline, remove the key and
u
nplug the power cord. Next, fold the treadmill to the
storage position (see page 15).
To change
the incline, ro-
tate the in-
cline legs up-
ward or
downward
until the in-
cline legs
touch the
frame.
After you have adjusted the incline legs, lower the
treadmill (see page 16).
HOW TO LEVEL THE TREADMILL
Make sure
that all four
leveling feet
rest firmly on
the floor (only
one side is
shown). If the
treadmill
rocks on your
floor, turn one
of the leveling
feet clockwise
or counter-
clockwise until the rocking motion is eliminated.
