HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE MONITOR

HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

The heart rate monitor consists of two components: the chest strap and the sensor unit (see the drawing below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap through one of the holes in the sensor unit. Press the end of the sensor unit under the buckle on the chest strap. The tab should be almost flush with the front of the sensor unit.

Chest Strap

Buckle

Sensor Unit

Tab

Next, wrap the

heart rate monitor around your chest and attach the other end of the chest strap to the sen-

sor unit. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary. The

heart rate moni-

tor should be under your clothing, tight against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.

Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side. The electrode areas are the areas covered by shallow ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor unit to a position against your chest.

HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE

•Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the

	electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate
	monitor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off
6	when it is removed and the electrode areas are
	dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each

use, it may remain activated longer than necessary, draining the battery prematurely.

•Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or other container that may trap moisture.

•Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sunlight for extended periods of time; do not expose it to temperatures above 122° Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit (-10° Celsius).

•Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit when using or storing the heart rate monitor.

•Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.

HEART RATE MONITOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING

The instructions on the following pages explain how the heart rate monitor is used with the console. If the letters “PLS” appear in the PULSE/CALORIES display or if the displayed heart rate is excessively high or low, try the steps below.

•Make sure that the heart rate monitor is under your clothing, tight against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. The logo on the sensor unit must be facing forward and be right-side-up. Note: If the heart rate monitor does not function when positioned as described, try moving it slightly lower or higher on your chest.

•Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.

•As you walk or run on the treadmill, position yourself near the center of the walking belt. For the console to display heart rate readings, the user must be within arm’s length of the console.

•The heart rate monitor is designed to work with people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate reading problems may be caused by medical conditions such as premature ventricular contractions (pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.

•The operation of the heart rate monitor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.

•The battery may need to be replaced (see page 19).

•If you have heart problems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the two pulse driven programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

•To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the console dry, avoid spilling liquids on the console, and use only a sealed water bottle.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of features designed to make your workouts more effective.

When the console is in the manual mode, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display instant exercise feedback—you can watch your progress on the LED “track,” while the four displays show your heart rate, the number of calories burned, the incline, workout time, speed, pace, distance, and laps completed.

Eight preset programs are also offered: three incline programs automatically control the incline of the treadmill as they guide you through effective workouts; three speed programs automatically control the speed of the treadmill; and two pulse driven programs automatically control the speed and the incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a predetermined range during your workouts.

The console also features two custom programs that allow you to create your own workout programs and store them in the console’s memory for future use.

To use the manual mode, follow the steps beginning on page 10. To use an incline program or a speed program, see page 12. To use a pulse driven program, see page 13. To create a custom program, see page 14. To use a custom program, see page 15.

Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometers (see SPEED/PACE DISPLAY on page 11). For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.
