5. Select a display mode and follow your progress
with the exercise information on the screen.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can
display the following exercise information:
• The elapsed time. Note: When a program is se-
lected, the screen will show the time remaining
in the program instead of the elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run. Note:
The console can display distance and speed in
either miles or kilometers (see HOW TO USE
THE INFORMATION MODE on page 23).
For
simplicity, all instructions in this section
refer to miles.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• The incline level of the treadmill. Note: The in-
cline level of the treadmill will be displayed only
when you press the Incline buttons.
• Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be dis-
played only when you use the handgrip pulse
sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
• When the manual mode is selected, the screen
can show a track that represents 1/4 mile (400
meters). As you walk or run on the treadmill, the
indicators around the track will appear in succes-
sion until the entire track appears. The track will
then disappear and the indicators will again
begin to appear in succession.
While the television is off, you can select either of
two display modes—a track and some of the exer-
cise information, or all of the exercise information.
While the television is on, you can select any of
three display modes—the information can be dis-
played on the right side of the screen, on the bot-
tom of the screen, or the information can be turned
off while you watch the television. Press the
Display button repeatedly to select the desired dis-
play mode.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either the
chest pulse sensor (see page 12) or the handgrip
pulse sensor. Note: If you use the handgrip pulse
sensor and the chest pulse sensor at the same
time, the display will not show your heart rate accu-
rately.
To use the
handgrip
pulse sensor,
first remove
the sheets of
clear plastic
from the metal
contacts on
the handgrip
pulse sensor.
Next,
stand
on the foot rails
and hold the metal contacts—
avoid moving your hands
. When your pulse is
detected, your heart rate will appear on the screen.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, con-
tinue to hold the contacts for about 15 sec-
onds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at high speed, press the Fan
button. To turn on the fan at low speed, press the
button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the
Fan button again. Note: If the fan is on when the
walking belt stops, the fan will automatically turn off
after a few minutes.
8. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest set-
ting when you fold the treadmill to the storage
position or you may damage the treadmill.
Next,
remove the key from the console and put it in a se-
cure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and
unplug the power cord.
Important: If you do not
do this, the electrical components of the tread-
mill may wear prematurely.
