5. Enter a target heart rate setting.
After you have entered your age, the words
ENTER PERCENT and the current target heart
rate setting for the workout will be shown in the
main display. The target heart rate setting repre-
sents a percentage of your age-predicted maxi-
mum 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
percent of 190 is 95).
If desired, you can change the target heart rate
setting by pressing the increase and decrease but-
tons above the Enter Age/Wt. button. The buttons
can be held down to change the target heart rate
setting quickly. The target heart rate setting can be
from 50 percent to 85 percent of your age-pre-
dicted maximum heart rate.
6. Press the Start button to start the workout.
A moment after you press the button, the treadmill
will automatically adjust to the first speed and in-
cline settings for the workout. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each pulse-driven workout is divided into one-
minute segments. The main display will show both
the time remaining in the workout and the time re-
maining in the current segment of the workout.
One target heart rate setting is programmed for
each segment. (During the Manual Pulse workout,
the same target heart rate setting will be pro-
grammed for all segments.)
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the workout, a series of tones will sound
and then the speed and/or incline of the treadmill
will change, if needed, to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting for the next
segment. The speed and/or incline setting will flash
in the main display to alert you before the speed
and/or incline changes. The workout will continue
until no time remains in the workout. The walking
belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed and incline setting for the current seg-
ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set-
ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if
you decrease the speed, the incline will automati-
cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in-
cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the
speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline,
the speed will increase. The treadmill will always
attempt to keep your heart rate near the target
heart rate setting for the current segment. Note:
When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the
speed cannot be increased any further. When the
incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-
not be decreased any further.
If your pulse is not detected during the workout, the
letters PLS will flash in the main display and the
speed and incline of the treadmill may automati-
cally decrease until your pulse is detected. If this
occurs, see the instructions on page 8.
To stop the workout at any time, press the Stop
button. Pulse-driven workouts should not be
stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a
pulse-driven workout again, reselect the workout
and start it at the beginning.
7. Follow your progress with the main display.
See step 5 on page 12.
8. When the workout ends, remove the key from
the console.
See step 7 on page 13.
