HOW TO USE PULSE-DRIVEN PROGRAMS Pulse-driven programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target level while you exercise.

Refer to the instructions on page 8. 2 Insert the key into the console. Refer to GETTING STARTED on page 11. 3 Select one of the three pulse-driven programs. When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select one of the three pulse-driven programs, press the MODE button repeatedly until the words CARDIO WALK PULSE, ENDURANCE PULSE, or MANUAL PULSE appear in the main display. Note: The CARDIO WALK PULSE program will keep your heart rate near 65% of your estimated maximum heart rate (refer to step 5 on page 16 for an explanation of your estimated maximum heart rate). The ENDURANCE PULSE program will keep your heart rate near 80% of your estimated maximum heart rate. The MANUAL PULSE program will keep your heart rate near a percentage that you select. When a pulse-driven program is selected, the name of the selected program and the total program time will scroll across the main display. The words ENTER AGE and the current age setting will then be shown (refer to step 4 on page 16). During pulse-driven programs, the matrix will show a moving graphic that represents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear in the graphic. 15
