Cruise

Control

1 - A user who physically cannot walk over 2.5 mph

can safely use heart rate control by entering

maximum speed of 2.5 in an HRC workout.

2 - A runner can run up to a speed of 10 mph,

without hills, by entering a maximum speed of 10

mph and a maximum incline of 0%.

3 - A walker enters a maximum speed of 4.0 mph and

a maximum incline of 6%. The walker is limited to

a maximum speed of 4.0 mph and incline will be

used if required to elevate the heart rate up to a

maximum of 6%.

HRC Cruise Control is the simplest way to enter target heart

rate training. While in manual or any program you can enter

Target Heart Rate Control by simply pressing the

key. Your

current heart rate will be set as the target.

For best results, you should be at least five minutes into your

workout and warmed up. This will allow Cruise Control to more

accurately control your heart rate.

Remember, you must be wearing a chest strap, and your heart rate

should be displayed in the Heart Rate window.

To change your target heart rate press

. Edit the target

using

and press

. If you are lowering your target, you

are limited to a 5 bpm change. It is important to note that if you

are raising your target, the speed and grade change safety limits

(described next) may prevent the treadmill from raising your

heart rate to your desired new target.
