6. Follow your progress with the display.
The console offers several display options. The dis-
play option you select will determine which workout
information is shown. Press the Display button re-
peatedly to select the desired display option.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display can
show the following workout information:
• The elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The incline level of the treadmill.
• Your pace in minutes per mile or minutes per kilo-
meter.
• Your heart
rate. Note:
Your heart
rate can be
displayed
only while
you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional
chest pulse sensor (see step 7). If you wish to see
your heart rate for more than 40 seconds, select
the display option shown above.
Note: Regardless of which display mode you select,
the speed or incline setting will appear in the dis-
play for a few seconds each time you change the
setting. In addition, your heart rate will appear in the
display each time you use the handgrip pulse sen-
sor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see step 7).
As you exercise, the workout intensity level bar will
indicate the approximate intensity level of your ex-
ercise. For example, if eight of the indicators in the
bar are lit, the bar shows that your intensity level is
ideal for aerobic exercise.
7. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If you hold the handgrip pulse sensor and wear the
optional chest pulse sensor at the same time, the
console will not display your heart rate accurately.
See page 23 for information about the optional
chest pulse sensor.
Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of clear
plastic from
the metal con-
tacts. In addi-
tion, make
sure that your hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate,
stand on the foot
rails
and hold the metal contacts on the handrail—
avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is de-
tected, your heart rate will be shown.
For the most
accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold
the contacts for about 15 seconds.
8. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan features high and low speed settings.
Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan
speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on
when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn
off automatically after a few minutes.
9. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting
when you fold the treadmill to the storage posi-
tion or you may damage the treadmill.
Next, re-
move the key from the console and put it in a secure
place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and
unplug the power cord.
IMPORTANT: If you do
not do this, the electrical components of the
treadmill may wear prematurely.
