HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
HEART RATE programs automatically control the
speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart
rate near a target level while you exercise. Follow the
steps below to use a HEART RATE program.
1. Put on a Polar
®
-compatible chest pulse sensor
(not included).
You must wear a chest pulse sensor to use a
HEART RATE program.
2. Insert the key into the console.
See GETTING STARTED on page 17.
3. Select a HEART RATE program.
Press the HEART RATE button one, two, or three
times to select the CONSTANT HEART RATE, the
VARIABLE HEART RATE, or the FAT BURN pro-
gram. Note: The CONSTANT HEART RATE pro-
gram will keep your heart rate near a percentage
that you select. The VARIABLE HEART RATE pro-
gram will keep your heart rate within a target range
during your workout. The FAT BURN program will
keep your heart rate near 65% of your
age-pre-
dicted maximum heart rate
(see step 6 at the right
for an explanation of your age-predicted maximum
heart rate).
When a HEART RATE program is selected, the
name of the program will appear in the main dis-
play. The words ENTER AGE and the current age
setting will then be shown.
During HEART RATE programs, the matrix will
show a moving graphic that represents your heart
rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an addi-
tional peak will appear in the graphic.
4. Enter your age.
See step 3 on page 18.
5. Enter your weight.
See step 4 on page 19.
If you have selected the CONSTANT HEART
RATE or VARIABLE HEART RATE program, go
to step 6. If you have selected the FAT BURN
program, go to step 7.
6. Enter a target heart rate setting.
After you have entered your age, the words MAX
PERCENT and the target heart rate setting for the
program will be shown in the main display. The tar-
get heart rate setting represents a
percentage
of
your
age-predicted maximum heart rate
. Your age-
predicted maximum heart rate is 220 minus your
age. For example, if you are 30 years old, your
age-predicted maximum heart rate is 190 beats per
minute (220 – 30 = 190). If you are 30 years old, a
target heart rate setting of 50 is equal to 95 beats
per minute (50% of 190 is 95).
If desired, you can change the target heart rate
setting by pressing the + and – buttons beside the
ENTER button. The buttons can be held down to
change the target heart rate setting quickly. The
target heart rate setting can be from 45% to 85% of
your age-predicted maximum heart rate. Then,
press the ENTER button.
7. Enter a program time.
The words ENTER TIME and a time setting of 15
minutes will appear in the main display. To change
the length of time that the program will last, press
the + and – buttons beside the ENTER button.
Then, press the ENTER button.
