Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure
your heart rate,
stand on the
foot rails
and
place your left
thumb on the
pulse sensor.
Do not press
too hard, or
the circulation in your thumb will be restricted
and your pulse will not be detected.
When your
pulse is detected, a heart-shaped indicator in the
left display will flash each time your heart beats,
and then your heart rate will be shown.
For the
most accurate heart rate reading, hold your
thumb on the pulse sensor for 15 seconds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, reposition your thumb on the pulse sensor.
Remember to stand still while measuring your
heart rate.
Turn on the workout fan if desired.
To turn on the workout fan at low, medium, or high
speed, press the Workout Fan button once, twice,
or three times. To turn off the fan, press the button
a fourth time. Note: If the fan is left on when the
walking belt is stopped, the fan will automatically
turn off after a few minutes.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
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 the treadmill is folded to the storage posi-
tion, or the treadmill will be damaged.
Next, re-
move the key from the console and put it in a se-
cure place.
Note: If the displays remains lit after
the key is removed, the console is in the
“demo” mode. See page 15 and turn off the
demo mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill,
switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off”
position and unplug the power cord.
HOW TO USE THE MYTRACKS™
STEPCOUNTER PROGRAM
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
11.
Select the MyTracks™ StepCounter program.
Press the 10,000 Steps
Program button; a goal
of 10,000 steps will ap-
pear in the MyTracks™
StepCounter display.
Note: If the walking belt
is moving when the 10,000 Steps Program button
is pressed, the walking belt will slow to a stop.
Depending on your fitness level, you may desire
to walk fewer than or more than 10,000 steps. To
change the goal, press the increase and decrease
buttons beside the 10,000 Steps Program button.
Each time a button is pressed, the goal will change
by 500 steps. Note: The goal can be changed
either before or after the program is started.
Note: To find an appropriate starting goal, walk on
the treadmill with the manual mode selected (see
page 12), and note the number of steps that you
walk during your workout. Then, round that num-
ber up to the nearest 500 steps. This can be a
starting goal. As your fitness level improves, you
can increase the goal by 500 steps every few
weeks.
IMPORTANT: Always exercise at an in-
tensity level and for a length of time that is
comfortable for you.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the walking
belt will begin to move at 2 mph. Hold the
handrails and begin walking.
As you exercise, adjust the speed and incline of
the treadmill as desired by pressing the Speed
and Incline buttons.
During the program, the MyTracks™ StepCounter
display will show the number of steps still to be
taken. When only ten steps remain, the
MyTracks™ StepCounter display will flash and a
tone will sound repeatedly until you reach the
goal. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
