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 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 avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is de- tected, your heart rate will be shown. For Contacts the most ac- curate 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. 7. Measure your heart rate if desired. You can measure your heart rate using either the handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor (see page 12 for information about the chest pulse sensor). Note: If you hold the handgrip pulse sensor and wear the chest pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not display 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 measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail- 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. 17
