When the cool-down segment is completed, the
walking belt will slow to a stop. After the fitness
test program is com-
pleted, your fitness level
will be shown in the
Time display. There are
ten fitness levels—
fitness level 10 (FL:10)
is the highest. Remem-
ber, the fitness program is intended only to indicate
your relative fitness level.
Note: The Speed and Incline buttons will not
function while the fitness test program is selected. If
your pulse is not detected during the program, the
letters “PLS” will flash in the Heart Rate/Calories
display. If your pulse is not detected during the last
thirty seconds of any 4-minute segment (after 4
minutes, after 8 minutes, etc.), the fitness test pro-
gram will end and the Time display will show a fit-
ness level of 0 (FL: 0).
The fitness test program cannot be stopped tem-
porarily and then restarted. However, the program
can be stopped at any time with the Stop button.
The Time display will then show an estimated fit-
ness level.
When the program has ended, remove the key.
See step 6 on page 13.
HOW TO USE THE PULSE-DRIVEN PROGRAM
The pulse-driven program automatically adjusts the
speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart
rate near a target level during your workout. Note: You
must wear the optional chest pulse sensor to use
the pulse-driven program (see page 24).
Follow the steps below to use the pulse-driven program.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.
To put on the chest pulse sensor, refer to the in-
structions included with the chest pulse sensor.
Insert the key fully into the console.
See GETTING STARTED on page 10.
Select the pulse-driven program.
When the key is inserted,
the manual mode will be
selected. To select the
pulse-driven program,
press the Select Program
button repeatedly until the
Pulse Driven indicator
lights. When the pulse-driven program is selected,
the program display will show a simplified profile of
the program.
Enter your age.
When the pulse-driven
program is selected, an
age setting will flash in
the Incline display and
the letters “AGE” will ap-
pear in the Time display.
You must enter your age to use the pulse-driven
program. If you have already entered your age, go
to step 5. If you have not entered your age, press
the Enter Age buttons to enter your age. A few
seconds after the buttons are pressed, the age
setting will disappear from the display. Your age
will then be saved in memory.
