5. Measure your heart rate if desired. To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your thumb on the pulse sensor (see the drawing on page 13). Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted and your pulse may not be detected. When your pulse is detected, the small heart symbol in the lower right display will flash, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for at least 15 seconds. If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to stand still while measuring your heart rate. 6. When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console. Each program consists of 30 one-minute periods. One speed setting is programmed for each period. Note: The same speed setting may be programmed for consecutive periods. The profiles on the console show how the speed of the walking belt will change during the programs. 3. Start the walking belt. Press the Start button or the speed increase button to start the program. When you press either button, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed setting that is programmed for the first period of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking. When the first period ends, a series of tones will sound. If a different speed setting is programmed for the second period, the speed setting will flash in one of the displays to alert you, and then the speed of the walking belt will change. The program will continue until all 30 periods are completed. The walking belt will then slow to a stop. Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, remove the key from the console, and put it in a secure place. When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical components may wear prematurely. HOW TO USE A SPEED PROGRAM 1. Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 13. 2. Select one of the four speed programs. If the speed setting is too high or too low during the program, you can manually override the setting by pressing the speed buttons. However, when the next period begins, the speed of the walking belt will change if a different speed setting is programmed for the next period. To stop the program, press the Stop button. The time will begin to flash in one of the displays. To restart the program, press the Start button or the speed increase button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the next period begins, the speed of the walking belt will change if a different speed setting is programmed for the next period. 4. Follow your progress with the track and the displays. To select a speed program, press the Program Select button repeatedly; "P- 1," "P2," "P- 3," or "P- 4" will appear in the upper display for a few seconds to show which program is selected. The maximum speed setting of the selected program will also flash in one of the displays for a few seconds. See step 4 on page 14. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on this page. 6. When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console. See step 6 on this page. 15

Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your heart rate,
stand on the foot
rails
and place your thumb on the pulse sensor
(see the drawing on page 13).
Do not press too
hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be re-
stricted and your pulse may not be detected.
When your pulse is detected, the small heart sym-
bol in the lower right display will flash, one or two
dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be
shown.
For the most accurate heart rate read-
ing, hold your thumb on the pulse sensor for at
least 15 seconds.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or
too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb for a few seconds, and then reposition
your thumb on the pulse sensor. Remember to
stand still while measuring your heart rate.
6.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, re-
move the key from the console, and put it in a se-

If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical
components may wear prematurely.
HOW TO USE A SPEED PROGRAM
1.
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 13.
2.
Select one of the four speed programs.
To select a speed pro-
gram, press the
Program Select button
repeatedly; “P- 1,” “P-
2,” “P- 3,” or “P- 4” will
appear in the upper dis-
play for a few seconds to show which program is
selected. The maximum speed setting of the se-
lected program will also flash in one of the displays
for a few seconds.
Each program consists of 30 one-minute periods.
One speed setting is programmed for each period.
Note: The same speed setting may be pro-
grammed for consecutive periods. The profiles on
the console show how the speed of the walking
belt will change during the programs.
3.
Start the walking belt.
Press the Start button or the speed increase button
to start the program. When you press either button,
the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed
setting that is programmed for the first period of the
program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
When the first period ends, a series of tones will
sound. If a different speed setting is programmed
for the second period, the speed setting will flash in
one of the displays to alert you, and then
the
speed of the walking belt will change.
The pro-
gram will continue until all 30 periods are com-
pleted. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed setting is too high or too low during the
program, you can manually override the setting by
pressing the speed buttons. However,
when the
next period begins, the speed of the walking
belt will change if a different speed setting is
programmed for the next period.
To stop the program, press the Stop button. The
time will begin to flash in one of the displays. To
