Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your heart rate,
stand on the foot
rails
and place your thumb on the pulse sensor
(see the drawing on page 13).
Do not press too
hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be
restricted and your pulse may not be detected.
When your pulse is detected, a heart-shaped indi-
cator in the lower right display will flash each time
your heart beats, one or two dashes will appear,
and then your heart rate will be shown.
For the
most accurate heart rate reading, hold your
thumb on the pulse sensor for at least 15 sec-
onds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition
your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to
stand still while measuring your heart rate.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Change the incline of the treadmill to the low-
est level by holding down the Incline decrease
button. If this is not done, the latch may not
hold the treadmill in the storage position.
Step onto the foot rails and press the Stop button.
Next, remove the key from the console and put it in
a secure place.
Switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” posi-
tion and unplug the power cord.
