The console can display
speed and distance in ei-
ther miles or kilometers.
To change the unit of
measurement, hold down
the STOP button while
inserting the key into the console. An “E” for
English miles or an “M” for metric kilometers will
appear in the SPEED/MIN-MILE display. Press the
SPEED
▲ ▲ button to change the unit of measure-
ment. When the desired unit of measurement is
selected, remove the key and then reinsert it.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: When using the pulse sensor, make sure
that your hands are clean. The pulse sensor
should also be kept clean with a damp cloth and
mild detergent.
To measure
your heart rate,
stand on the
foot rails and
place both
thumbs on the
pulse sensors
as shown. Do
not press too
hard, or the cir-
culation in your
thumbs will be
restricted and
your pulse will
not be detected. Next, wait until the heart-shaped
indicator in the CALS./FAT CALS./HEART RATE
display flashes steadily. After a few seconds, your
heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumbs on the
sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accu-
rate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumbs off the sensors and allow the display
to reset. Then, place your thumbs on the sensors
as described above. Try the pulse sensor several
times until you become familiar with it. Remember
to stand still while measuring your heart rate.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the STOP button,
and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
level. The incline must be at the lowest level
when the treadmill is raised to the storage po-
sition or the treadmill will be damaged. Next, re-
move the key from the console and put the key in
a secure place. Note: If the displays and various
indicators on the console remain lit after the
key is removed, the console is in the “demo”
mode. Refer to page 14 and turn off the demo
mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off switch near the power cord to the off
position.
