HEART RATE MONITOR MODE
The treadmill may at any time be used in the Heart Rate Monitor Mode. If the signal from the chest strap is
detected, heart rate BPM will be displayed in the INCLINE window. The incline will only be briefly displayed if
manual or program changes are initiated. The Heart Rate program is designed to keep your heart at a desired amount
of “beats per minute” by automatically adjusting the incline. For example, you have programmed in a desired heart
rate of 125 BPM and your heart rate is only at 110 BPM. If you are wearing the Heart Rate Transmitter, correctly the
incline will automatically increase to intensify the work load, causing your heart rate to slowly climb to 125 BPM.
The treadmill will attempt to maintain your target heart rate through adjustments to the incline for the remainder of
your workout. In the same respect, if your heart rate is above your programmed amount of BPM’s, the incline will
automatically decrease to lower your heart rate. You may at any time during the Heart Rate Program adjust/override
the speed and/or the incline by simply pressing the correct corresponding button. You may also change your “Target
Heart Rate” at any time by pressing the TARGET UP or TARGET DOWN button.
HEART RATE PROGRAM OPERATION
♦
Plug treadmill into a surge protector outlet. Attach RED Safety Key to treadmill console.

from the chest strap, the incline window will begin to settle on your current heart rate.

window will momentarily flash ‘125’, which is the default program target heart rate.
♦
The TIME window will blink. Use the SPEED/TIME + or – arrows to select your workout time. Press
ENTER PROGRAM.
♦
The SPEED/TIME window will then blink. Use the same + or – arrows to select the speed for your workout.
Press ENTER PROGRAM.
♦
The incline window (if receiving your heart rate accurately) will show current BPM, and the small red light la-
beled PULSE adjacent to the incline window, will be illuminated. (If the receiver is not receiving an accurate read-
ing, the incline window will be flashing - - - -).
♦
To adjust the pre-set target heart rate press the /TARGET– button then press the ENTER
PROGRAM button.

The small light at the top of the console labeled TARGET will be illuminated if you are at your target. If you are
not, the arrow shaped lights will illuminate and reflect if you are above or below your goal. If you are not within 25
BPM of your “Target heart rate” the program will not work. DO NOT STOP TO START OVER. Continue exer-
cising and your heart rate will naturally increase. The program will continually monitor your heart rate and periodi-
cally adjust the incline up or down to increase or decrease the resistance thereby keeping you at your target zone. At
the conclusion of the programmed time the TIME window will flash 00:00 and the CALORIES/DISTANCE win-
dow will continue to accumulate values. The treadmill will continue operation until the START/STOP button or the
PAUSE button is pressed. Press the POWER button to turn off the treadmill.
