First, set the TIME SET function for 4 minutes. Press the "START/STOP" key and exercise at a comfortable pace until the 4 minutes elapse. Immediately measure your heart rate using the PULSE function. If your heart rate is below your Training Zone, increase the speed or incline of the treadmill. If your heart rate is too high, reduce the speed or incline. r During the first few weeks of your exercise program you should keep your heart rate near the low end of your Training Zone.
