HOW TO USE HEART RATE 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 heart rate 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 optional chest pulse sensor. You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 23) to use a heart rate program. 2 Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10. 3 Select a heart rate program. To select a heart rate program, press the 85% Max or Self Select button. The indicator on the button that you press will light. During the 85% Max program, your heart rate will reach approximately 85% of your estimated maximum heart rate; during the Self Select program, 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 heart rate programs, the matrix will show a moving graphic that represents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, a peak will appear. 4 Enter your age. When a heart rate 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 increase and decrease buttons below the Enter button to enter your age. Then, press the Enter button. 5 Enter a maximum speed. After you have entered your age, the letters "SPd" and the maximum speed setting of the program will flash in the Speed display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Enter button to adjust the maximum speed setting. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button. If the 85% Max program is selected, go to step 7. If the Self Select program is selected, go to step 6. 6 Enter a target heart rate. The letters "PLS" and the target heart rate setting for the program will flash in the Calories/ Pulse display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Enter button to adjust the target heart rate setting. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button. 7 Press the Start button or the Speed increase 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. 14
