Epic Fitness 600 Mx Treadmill English Manual - Page 12

The right display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. In addition, during heart rate programs the right display will show a heart rate bar that shows your heart rate as a percentage of your age-predicted maximum heart rate (see step 3 on page 17 for an explanation of your age-predicted maximum heart rate). For example, if four to six segments of the bar appear, your heart rate is between 60% and 70% of your age-predicted maximum heart rate. Heart Rate Bar Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometers. The letters "MPH" or "Km/H" will appear in the right display to show which unit of measurement is selected. To change the unit of measurement, see THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE on page 19. For simplicity, all instructions in this section 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. Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and the optional chest pulse sen- sor at the same time, the con- Contacts sole will not dis- play your heart rate accurately. Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean. To use the handgrip pulse sensor, stand on the foot rails and hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting on the metal contacts; avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the right display will flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes (- -) will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. Note: The handgrip pulse sensor is intended to be used only for heart rate measurement. Do not use the handgrip pulse sensor as a handlebar. Always hold the handrails for support when you are not measuring your heart rate. 7 Turn on the fan if desired. To turn on the fan, press the button below the fan. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the button a third time. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, 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 setting when the treadmill is folded to the storage position or the treadmill will become damaged. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. Note: If the displays remain lit after the key is removed, the console is in the "demo" mode. See page 19 and turn off the demo mode. When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" position and unplug the power cord. 12
