FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The console offers an impressive array of features to
help you get the most from your exercise.
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the
speed and incline of the INCLINE TRAINER can be
changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the
console will provide continuous exercise feedback.
You can even measure your heart rate using the built-
in pulse sensor.
Six preset workout programs are also offered. Each pro-
gram automatically controls the speed and incline of
the INCLINE TRAINER to give you an effective workout.
In addition, the console offers three pulse-driven pro-
grams that adjust the speed and incline of the INCLINE
TRAINER to keep your heart rate near target levels
during your workouts, and a unique fitness test pro-
gram that measures your relative fitness level. Note:
The pulse-driven programs and the fitness test pro-
gram require the use of a Polar
® -compatible chest
pulse sensor (not included).
The console also features new iFIT.com interactive
technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal trainer right at your side. Using a male-to-male
audio cable (available at electronics stores), you can
connect your portable CD player to the INCLINE
TRAINER and play special iFIT.com CD programs
(CD’s are available separately). IFIT.com CD programs
automatically control the speed and incline of the
INCLINE TRAINER as a personal trainer guides you
through every step of your workout. High-energy music
provides added motivation. Each CD features two pro-
grams designed by certified personal trainers. To order
iFIT.com CD’s, call toll-free 1-877-363-8449.
