HOW TO USE PULSE PROGRAMS 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 programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate. 1 Put on the chest pulse sensor. You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use a pulse program. See the instructions on page 9. 2 Insert the key fully into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12. 3 Select a pulse program. When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select a pulse program, press the Program Select button repeatedly until a "P 1," "P 2," "P 3," or "P 4" appears in the Distance/Incline display. The diagrams numbered 1 through 4 on the left side of the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. During pulse program 1, your heart rate will reach approximately 85% of your estimated maximum heart rate; during pulse programs 2 and 3, your heart rate will reach approximately 80% of your estimated maximum heart rate; during pulse program 4, your heart rate will remain near a level that you select. Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 - 30 = 190). During pulse programs, the matrix will show a moving graphic that represents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear. 4 Enter your age. When a pulse program is selected, the word "AGE" and the current age setting will flash in the Calories/Pulse display. If you have already entered your age, simply press the Enter button. If you have not entered your age, press the + and - buttons beside the Enter button to enter your age. Then, press the Enter button. 5 Enter a target heart rate. If pulse program 1, 2, or 3 is selected, go to step 6. If pulse program 4 is selected, follow the instructions below. After you have entered your age, the letters "PLS" and the target heart rate setting for the program will flash in the Calories/Pulse display. If desired, press the + and - buttons beside the Enter button to adjust the target heart rate setting. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button. 6 Enter a maximum speed. Next, the letters "SPd" and the maximum speed setting of the program will flash in the Calories/ Pulse display. If desired, press the + and - buttons beside the Enter button to adjust the maximum speed setting. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button. 16
