6. Measure your heart rate if desired. Note: If you use the handgrip heart rate monitor and the chest heart rate monitor at the same time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately. For information about the chest heart rate monitor, see page 13. Press the Manual fan button to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Press the Auto fan button to select the auto mode or to turn off the fan. Before using the handgrip heart rate monitor, remove the sheets of plastic from the contacts on the pulse bar. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean. Contacts To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the pulse bar with your palms on the contacts for approximately ten seconds; 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. 7. Turn on the fan if desired. The fan features multiple speed settings and an auto mode. When the auto mode is selected, the speed of the fan will automatically increase and decrease as the speed of the walking belt increases and decreases. Pivot the fan lever upward or downward to direct the airflow from the fan. If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically 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 0 percent. The incline must be at 0 percent or you may damage the treadmill when you fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. When you are finished using the treadmill, press the power switch into the off position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical components may wear prematurely. 18
