HOW TO USE A PULSE PROGRAM CAUTION: If you have heart prob- lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate. Follow the steps below to use a pulse program. 1. Put on the chest pulse sensor. Note: You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use a pulse program (see page 10 for information about using the chest pulse sensor). 2. Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 13. 3. Personalize console settings if desired. See HOW TO PERSONALIZE CONSOLE SETTINGS on page 13. 4. Select a pulse program. To select a pulse program, press the Heart Rate Control button repeatedly. The pulse programs are each divided into oneminute segments. During the first pulse program, the same target heart rate setting is programmed for all segments (except for the first two segments). During the second, third, or fourth pulse program, one target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments. 5. Adjust the maximum target heart rate setting if desired. To adjust the maximum target heart rate setting, press the Heart Rate increase and decrease buttons (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 29). To adjust the target heart rate setting quickly, hold down one of the buttons. 6. Press the Start button to start the program. A moment after the button is pressed, the walking belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and begin walking. 7. Select a display mode and monitor your progress with the display. When a pulse program is selected, the console offers two display modes. Press the Display button to select the desired display mode. When a pulse program is selected, the display will show the name of the program and the maximum target heart rate setting of the program. In addition, a profile of the target heart rate settings of the program will appear in the display. Regardless of which display mode you select, a profile of the target heart rate settings of the program will appear in the display. A white line representing your heartbeat will also appear; each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear in the line. A small arrow below the profile will indicate your progress. 21
