Warning
GETTING
Be sure to securely stop the running belt by pressing either the EMERGENCY button or STOP button
before you step up on the EC-T220.
ONTHETREADMILL
1. Grip the handle securely until you are comfortable
on the EC-T220.
2. When you are accustomed to exercise with ECT220, you may exercise free from the handle,
swinging your arms freely and naturally at your
side.
3. Keep your track on the center part of the running
tread.
Caution:While exercising, stepping on any
part other than the running belt may
cause you to fall.
4. After a few seconds of exercise, the running belt
speed will become faster.
5. Keep your running within a distance where you
can still reach the EMERGENCY STOP or STOP
button and operate the treadmill.
Caution:Stay in the center part of running
belt area for safest operation. Slow
down or stop your exercise immediately if you are unable to keep up
with the belt speed.
Safety Key Function
The card slot of this machine functions as a safety key when you change the setting of
dip switch in the control unit.
Removing the safety key from the card slot will stop the treadmill as will pushing the
emergency stop button.
The LCD screen lights up and then the program starts only when the safety key or card
is inserted into the slot while the safety key function is activated. This allows you to use
the function to prevent tampering.
For further information relating to the procedures for how to set the safety key function, refer to "Setting the Safety Key Function" in page 39 of the "Reference Guide"
Reference: The program will be initiated when a key is inserted to the card slot, and
you can use the data card as a key to initiate the program.
Caution:For your safety, attach the clip end of the cable from the safety key to
your clothes.
How to Use the Safety Key
(How to start the program when the safety key function is
activated.)
1. Attach the clip end of the cable from the safety key to your clothes.
Caution:Check that the safety key will come out of the card slot when your
body is away from the control unit.
Reference: When the data card is to be used as a safety key, fix the card to the
cable.
2. Insert the safety key to the card slot.
3. Following the instructions on the screen, select the training program, set necessary
conditions, and start your training.
Reference: The LCD screen lights up only when the safety key or card is inserted
into the slot while the safety key function is activated.

PUTTINGONTHECHEST-BELTHEARTRATESENSOR
Your heart rate can be measured by the chest-belt heart rate sensor.
The EC-T220 treadmill receives and calculates the number of heartbeats which are transmitted from the wireless chest-belt. It is therefore possible to control your heart rate during
exercise. Accurate heartbeat measurement is possible, even for those persons whose pulse is
difficult to detect.
When a heart rate signal is received and calculated, a graph of the heart rate is displayed at
the top of the LCD screen. The pulse itself is also displayed at the top right of the screen.
When the chest-belt is not worn, the graph and pulse displays are not shown.
The HR control training function will not operate if the chest-belt is not worn.
Function of the chest-belt heart rate sensor
The wireless chest-belt heart rate sensor uses a miniaturized and simplified version of the of electrocardiography concept used in hospitals. For an electrocardiogram, multiple electrodes are attached to the body, and the electric potential difference between them is used to calculate the heart
rate. The chest-belt heart rate sensor's two internal electrodes are applied to the body and detect
the electric potential difference, providing a simpler way of detecting heartbeats. This information
is sent to the control unit by radio waves, so even hard training is possible. The chest-belt heart rate
sensor uses the chest-belt (transmitter) and the signal-receiving circuit board (receiver) contained
in the control unit to read your heart rate and calculate and display your per-minute pulse.
Before putting on the chest-belt heart rate sensor
Warning
Caution:•Put on the chest-belt heart rate sensor at the center of your chest and in con-
Pace maker users should never use this device.
tact with your skin.
•To increase measurement effectiveness, dampen the electrode area with water or electrocardiograph electrolyte cream.
•People with sensitive skin can put on the chest-belt over a thin shirt with
electrode area damped with water.
•Hair on the chest may interfere with accurate measurements.
Putting on the chest-belt heart rate sensor
Put it on following the procedure below.
1. Adjust the length of the attachment belt to fit your chest.
Caution:May be painful if tightened too much.
2. Hook the attachment belt to the electrode belt. Place the electrode
area at the center of your chest. Be sure that the electrode area is held
firmly against your skin.
Reference: When wearing the chest-belt heart rate sensor over a
shirt it is necessary to moisten the electrode area for the
better results. In the winter season when skin can be
dried, errors may occur even when the electrodes are in
direct contact with your skin. This can be improved by
moistening the electrodes.
3. Adjust the belt so that the transmitter is at the center (just above your
diaphragm) of your chest.
Reference: When wearing the chest-belt heart rate sensor over a
shirt it is necessary to moisten the electrode area for the
better results.
The chest-belt heart rate sensor uses a lithium battery.
The lithium battery has a limited lifetime; when changing the battery, refer to the Reference Guide, page 38,
"Maintenance of the chest-belt heart rate sensor."
