Data Readouts
As you exercise, the treadmill keeps track of the following data:
BPM (Beats Per Minute) — Your current heart rate. Heart rate will appear when a signal is
introduced. Use the hand grips for Contact Heart rate or wear a Polar® compatible heart rate chest
strap.
Calories — The total accumulated calories burned during your workout. Your weight must be
correctly set before beginning your workout for this measurement to be most accurate.
Distance — The total accumulated distance, in miles or kilometers, during your workout. Depending
on the defaults you’ve chosen this measurement will show in English or Metric.
Pace — At your current speed, how long it would take to cover a mile (or kilometer), displayed in
minutes:seconds.
Time — The total time you’ve been working out or time remaining. Display time as hours:minutes.
Heart Rate Indicator
Contact Heart Rate – Lightly hold hand grips on the handlebar ensuring that hands are clean and
contact both the front and back sensors of each grip. A heart rate will display in typically 30 seconds
or less.
Factors that interfere with heart rate signal:
• hand lotions
• oils or body powder
• excessive dirt
• excessive movement
• body composition
• hydration
• too loose grip
• too tight grip
• resting or leaning on grips
Wireless Heart Rate – To use this feature, a Polar® compatible heart rate transmitter belt (not
included) must be worn.
Once the actual heart rate is determined, the LED to the right of the Data Readouts is blinking to the displayed
BPM and the Heart LED lights up. The color of the light represents a scale of low to high target heart rate.
Blue 0 – 69 BPM
Green 70 – 93 BPM
Yellow 94 – 119 BPM
Blood Orange 120 – 169
Magenta 170 and higher
