NordicTrack 2500r Treadmill Uk Manual - Page 13

Speed/Pace display- This display shows the speed of the walking belt and your current pace (pace is measured in minutes per mile). The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds, as shown by the indicators around the display. Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometres. To find which unit of measurement is selected, hold down the Stop button whilst inserting the key into the console. An E, for English miles, or an M, for metric kilometres, will appear in the Speed/Pace display. Press the Speed + button to change the unit of measurement. When the desired unit of measurement is selected, remove the key and then reinsert it. Note: For simplicity, all instructions in this manual refer to miles. To reset the displays, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key. 6 Measure your heart rate, if desired. You can measure your heart rate using either the handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor. Follow the instructions below to use the handgrip pulse sensor. Stand on the foot pads and place your hands on the metal contacts on the handrail. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts, and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts-avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the Heart Rate indicator will flash, three dashes (- - -) will appear in the Heart Rate/Calories display, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. 7 When you are finished exercising, stop the walking belt and remove the key. Step onto the foot pads, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest level. The incline must be at the lowest level when the treadmill is raised to the storage position or the treadmill will be damaged. 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 "demo" mode. See 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. HOW TO USE PRESET PROGRAMS 1 Insert the key fully into the console. See GETTING STARTED on page 11. 2 Select one of the three preset programs. When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select one of the preset programs, press the Program button repeatedly until the P1, P2, or P3 indicator lights. Program Indicator When you select a preset program, the program display will show a simplified profile of the program you have selected. For example, the profile above shows that the intensity of the selected program will increase during the first half of the program, and then decrease during the last half of the program. The Time/Watts display will show how long the program will last. 3 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 for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking. 13
