6. Follow your progress with the display. 7. Measure your heart rate if desired. The console offers several display options. The display option you select will determine which workout information is shown. Press the Display button repeatedly to select the desired display option. As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display can show the following workout information: • The elapsed time. • The distance that you have walked or run. • The approximate number of calories you have burned. • The speed of the walking belt. If you hold the handgrip pulse sensor and wear the optional chest pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately. See page 23 for information about the optional chest pulse sensor. Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addi- Contacts tion, make sure that your hands are clean. • The incline level of the treadmill. • Your pace in minutes per mile or minutes per kilometer. • Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate can be displayed only while you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see step 7). If you wish to see your heart rate for more than 40 seconds, select the display option shown above. Note: Regardless of which display mode you select, the speed or incline setting will appear in the display for a few seconds each time you change the setting. In addition, your heart rate will appear in the display each time you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see step 7). As you exercise, the workout intensity level bar will indicate the approximate intensity level of your exercise. For example, if eight of the indicators in the bar are lit, the bar shows that your intensity level is ideal for aerobic exercise. Workout Intensity Level Bar To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail- avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. 8. Turn on the fan if desired. The fan features high and low speed settings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes. 9. 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 setting 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 secure 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 treadmill may wear prematurely. 15
