Fitness Test:
This test is to evaluate the overall cardiovascular fitness of an adult. The formula which takes the user to a
final evaluation number when the test is done, uses Sex, Age, Weight, Heart Rate, and Time in an equation to
determine the cardiovascular fitness for adults.
To start this program:
1.
Press the UP / DOWN buttons till top window says FITNESS TEST. Press ENTER
2.
Enter your weight using the UP / DOWN buttons. Press ENTER
3.
Enter your age using the UP / DOWN buttons. Press ENTER
4.
Enter your Sex using the UP / DOWN buttons. 1 = M; 0 = F. Press ENTER
5.
Press START. Walk as briskly as possible for 1 mile (1609 meters). Do not jog or run.
6.
When you get to within 0.1 miles of the end of the test (160 meters), place your hands on the
contact heart rate pads so that the treadmill can measure your heart rate. (If you are wearing a
heart rate chest strap, you do not need to do this.)
7.
When the test is finished, the treadmill will display your fitness test score and fitness category.
Note:
it is a good idea to warm up for a few minutes prior to performing this test.
Warning:
Do not over-exert yourself during this test. If you feel faint or dizzy at any time during this test, stop
walking immediately.
Innovative Features
Intelli-Guard
TM
(TR7000i only):
This treadmill is equipped with the Intelli-Guard safety feature. This
feature senses when you stop walking on the treadmill and for safety purposes it automatically pauses the
treadmill to avoid accidental falls and resulting injury. The Intelli-Guard feature is triggered when the treadmill
senses that you are no longer walking or running on the treadmill.
Caution:
The Intelli-Guard feature will automatically be disengaged when the treadmill is
operated at speeds under 1.0 mph. If the speed is within this parameter the step icon will flash.
When the icon flashes, the treadmill will not auto pause.
Caution:
At 20 seconds the console will beep once per second for 5 seconds
and then automatically pause the treadmill. These beeps are a notice that the
treadmill belt is about to stop. If for some reason you are still on the treadmill
when this occurs move your feet to the side rails and prepare for the belt to stop.
The Intelli-Guard feature does not replace the use of your saftey key or using proper
precaution in stopping the treadmill when it is not in use.
Intelli-Step
TM
(TR7000i only):
The treadmill comes with the Intelli-Step counting feature. This feature
senses the resistance on the running belt each time your foot strikes. There are several factors that will effect the
accuracy of this feature including your walking style, your weight, and your usage characteristics. For example,
the Intelli-Step feature will have a more difficult time picking up the steps of a light user and especially a light
user walking at an incline. The higher the incline the more difficult it is for the feature to recognize steps. This may
also be the base at lower speeds. In summary, the Intelli-Step is a great feature for users interested in maintaining
a step count walking or running program, but it is dependent on many variables for accuracy and the accuracy of
the count will depend on your individual characteristics as well as variables related to the treadmills usage.
