HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT get heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. 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 workouts. 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. To use a heart rate workout, you must wear the optional chest pulse sensor or use the handgrip pulse sensor. For the best results, wear the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 22 for information about the optional chest pulse sensor). 2. Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 15. 3. Select one of the two heart rate workouts. To select a heart rate workout, press the Heart Rate button repeatedly. When a pulse workout is selected, the workout duration and maximum target heart rate will appear in the displays. In addition, a profile of the heart rate settings of the workout will scroll across the matrix. 4. Enter a target heart rate setting. The maximum target heart rate setting of the workout will appear in the right display. If desired, press the Vol./HR increase and decrease buttons to change the maximum target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 28). Note: If you change the maximum target heart rate setting, the intensity level of the entire workout will change. 5. Start the walking belt. Press the Start button or the Speed increase button to start the workout. A moment after you press the button, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the workout. Hold the handrails and begin walking. Heart rate workouts are divided into one-minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same tar- During each segment of the workout, the console will compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for that segment. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Note: If your pulse is not detected during the program, the speed and incline of the treadmill will not automatically adjust. When the first segment of the workout ends, a series of tones will sound and all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. If a new speed and/or incline setting is programmed for the next segment, the new speed and/or incline setting will appear in the display. The workout will continue in this way until the last segment of the workout ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop. If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the workout, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed or Incline buttons; however, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. To stop the workout at any time, press the Stop button. To restart the workout, press the Start button. The walking belt will begin to move at 2 KM/H; however, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. 6. Follow your progress with the displays. See step 5 on page 16. 7. Turn on the fans if desired. See step 7 on page 16. 8. When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console. See step 8 on page 16. 18
