HEART RATE PROGRAM MODE 

The Heart Rate program is designed to keep your heart rate a desired level of “beats per minute” by automatically 
adjusting the incline.  For example, if you have programmed in a desired heart rate of 105 beats per minute and your 
heart rate is only 95 beats per minute (you must be wearing Heart Rate Transmitter), the incline will automatically 
increase to intensify the work load, and increase you heart rate to the 105 beats per minute you programmed.   

If your heart rate is above your programmed amount of beats per minute 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 incline 
by simply pressing the correct corresponding buttons.  You may change your “Target Heart Rate” at ant time during 
the program by pressing the  or TARGET – buttons.
