HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE PROGRAMS The three HEART RATE programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near predetermined settings during your workout. The graphs labeled P2 and P3 on the console show the heart rate settings of the HILL and INTERVAL programs. The SELF SELECT program will keep your heart rate near a setting that you choose. The HILL program is 20 minutes long with a 3-minute cooldown period; the INTERVAL program is 28 minutes long with a 2-minute cool-down period; the SELF SELECT program is 20 minutes long. Follow the steps below to use a HEART RATE program. 1 Plug in the power cord. See step 1 on page 12. 2 Insert the key fully into the console. See step 2 on page 12. 3 Put on the CardioTrack heart rate monitor. The heart rate monitor must be worn when a HEART RATE program is used. To put on the heart rate monitor, see How to Use the CardioTrackª Heart Rate Monitor on page 8. Note: During a HEART RATE program, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease if your heart rate is not detected for an extended period of time. 4 Select one of the HEART RATE programs. When the key is inserted, the MANUAL mode will be selected. To select one of the HEART RATE programs, press the PROGRAM SELECT button repeatedly until a ÒP-2,Ó ÒP-3,Ó or ÒP-4Ó appears in the SPEED display.

A heart will appear on the right side of the matrix, indicating that a HEART RATE program has been selected. The left side of the matrix will show a representation of the heart rate settings of the selected program. 5 Enter your weight if desired. When a HEART RATE program is selected, the current weight setting will flash in the INCLINE display. Although it is not necessary to enter your weight to use a HEART RATE program, the CALORIES display will be more accurate if your weight is entered.
