Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

After you have
entered your
age, another
number will
begin to flash in
the Pulse/
Calories display.
This number is the 

maximum heart rate setting

for

the program. If Pulse program 1 is selected, the
maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to
85% of your 

maximum possible heart rate

(your

maximum possible heart rate is 220 minus your
age); if Pulse program 2 is selected, the maximum
heart rate setting can be from 65% to 80% of your
maximum possible heart rate. Note: Your maximum
possible heart rate is an estimate only.  

For example, if you are 30 years old, your maxi-
mum possible heart rate is 190 (220 minus 30
equals 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is se-
lected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from
123 to 161 (65% of 190 is 123; 85% of 190 is 161).

If you want to change the maximum heart rate set-
ting, press the 

and 

▼  

buttons. The buttons can

be held down to change the setting quickly. When
the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button.

Press the Start button or the Speed 

button

to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking. 

Each program is divided into several time segments
of different lengths. The Time/Segment Time dis-
play will show both the time remaining in the pro-
gram and the time remaining in the current seg-
ment. One target heart rate setting is programmed
for each segment. The
heart rate setting for the
first segment will be
shown in the flashing
Current Segment col-
umn of the program 
display. The heart rate
settings for the next
seven segments will be
shown in the seven columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a se-
ries of tones will sound, and 

all heart rate settings

will move one column to the left.

The heart rate

setting for the second segment will then be shown
in the flashing Current Segment column. As you
exercise, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill
will automatically change as needed to keep your
heart rate near the current target heart rate setting. 

The program will continue until no time remains in
the Time/Segment Time display. The walking belt
will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-
ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set-
ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if
you 

decrease

the speed, the incline will automati-

cally 

increase

; if you 

increase

the speed, the in-

cline will 

decrease

. If you 

increase

the incline, the

speed will 

decrease

; if you 

decrease

the incline,

the speed will 

increase

.

The treadmill will always

attempt to keep your heart rate near the target
heart rate setting for the current segment.

Note:

When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the
speed cannot be increased any further. When the
incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-
not be decreased any further.

If your heart rate is not detected during the pro-
gram, the speed and incline of the treadmill may
automatically decrease until your heart rate is 
detected. If this occurs, see CHEST PULSE 
SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING on page 6. 

To stop the program temporarily, press one of the
Stop buttons. All displays will pause and the Time/
Segment Time display will begin to flash. To
restart the program, press the Start button or the
Speed 

button. To end the program, press a Stop

button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.

Follow your progress with the four displays.

Refer to step 6 on page 11.

When the program has ended, remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails and make sure that the in-
cline of the treadmill is at 0%. 

The incline must

be at 0% when the treadmill is raised to the
storage position.

Next, remove the key from the

console and put it in a secure place.

Note: If the

displays and indicators on the console remain
lit after the key is removed, the console is in
the ÒdemoÓ mode. Refer to page 22 and turn off
the demo mode.

When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off switch near the power cord to the off 
position and unplug the power cord.
