EXERCISE PROGRAMS
TARGET HEART RATE PROGRAM:
This program automatically modifies the speed and incline to
maintain a preset target heart rate. This target is established in the setup process. The chart on this owner’s
manual can be used to determine the appropriate target heart rate. To set up the target heart rate program, you
will need to enter the workout time, your age, and your target heart rate.
WIRELESS HEART RATE CHEST STRAP: The
most accurate way to read your heart rate is by using a
wireless heart rate transmitter. Prior to wearing the strap, moisten the two contact pads with several drops of
water and spread the water over the pads with your finger. When you put on the strap, center the transmitter
strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly over your sternum. Adjust the elastic strap so the belt
fits snugly and stays in place.
