HOW TO USE A PULSE-DRIVEN PROGRAM
Pulse-driven workouts automatically control the speed
and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near
a target level while you exercise.
1. Put on the chest pulse sensor.
You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use a
pulse-driven workout.
See the instructions on
page 8.
2. Insert the key into the console.
See GETTING STARTED on page 11.
3. Select one of the three pulse-driven workouts.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be
selected. To select one of the three pulse-driven
workouts, press the Mode button repeatedly until
the words Cardio Walk Pulse, Endurance Pulse, or
Manual Pulse appear in the main display. Note:
The Cardio Walk Pulse workout will keep your
heart rate near 65 percent of your age-predicted
maximum heart rate (see step 5 on page 16 for an
explanation of your age-predicted maximum heart
rate). The Endurance Pulse workout will keep your
heart rate near 80 percent of your age-predicted
maximum heart rate. The Manual Pulse workout
will keep your heart rate near a percentage that
you select.
When a pulse-driven workout is selected, the name
of the selected workout and the total workout time
will scroll across the main display. The words
ENTER AGE and the current age setting will then
be shown (see step 4 below).
During pulse-driven
workouts, the matrix
will show a moving
graphic that repre-
sents your heart rate.
Each time a heartbeat
is detected, an addi-
tional peak will appear in the graphic.
4. Enter your age.
You must enter your age to use a pulse-driven
workout.
To enter your age, press the increase
and decrease buttons above the Enter Age/Wt.
button. The buttons can be held down to enter your
age quickly. The age range is 20 to 80 years.
When your age is shown, press the Enter Age/Wt.
button.
If you have selected the Cardio Walk Pulse
workout or the Endurance Pulse workout, go to
step 6. If you have selected the Manual Pulse
workout, go to step 5.
