HOW TO USE A PULSE CONTROL PROGRAM Pulse control program 2 will automatically adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate setting that you select. Pulse control program 3 will keep your heart rate within a preset range. CAUTION: If you have heart prob- lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse control programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate. Follow the steps below to use a pulse control program. 1 Put on the chest pulse sensor. You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use a pulse control program. 2 Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12. 3 Select a pulse control program. To select a pulse control program, press the Pulse Control Program button once or twice. When pulse control program 2 is selected, a heart symbol will appear in the matrix in the lower part of the display. When pulse control program 3 is selected, the matrix will show the first seven target heart rate settings of the program. 4 Enter a target heart rate setting. If pulse control program 2 is selected, the target heart rate setting for the program will flash in the display. If desired, press the Incline increase or decrease button to change the target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 29). Note: The same target heart rate setting will be programmed for the entire program. If pulse control program 3 is selected, the maximum target heart rate setting of the program will flash in the display (see the drawing above). If desired, press the Incline increase or decrease button to change the maximum target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 29). Note: If the maximum target heart rate setting is increased or decreased, the intensity level of the entire program will increase or decrease. 5 Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program. A moment after the button is pressed, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking. Pulse control program 2 is divided into 40 oneminute segments. The same target heart rate setting is programmed for all segments. (Note: For a shorter workout, simply stop the program before it ends.) Pulse control program 3 is divided into 30 one-minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments. If pulse con- trol program 3 is selected, the target heart rate setting for Current Segment the first seg- ment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the matrix. The target heart rate settings for the next four segments will be shown in the columns to the right. 16
