SENSORS
The Contact Hand Pulse Sensors are
included on each product to monitor
your heart rate. To use, grasp both of
the sensors with a comfortable grip
during your workout. The console will
display your heart rate. It may take
the system a few seconds to zero in
on your actual heart rate. Most people
have a grip that is conductive enough
to transmit a good signal. However,
some people have erratic heart rates or
improper body chemistry to transmit a
good signal through the touch sensitive
hand pulse grips.
VARIABLE INCLINE
Press the INCLINE UP or DOWN arrows
to adjust the incline from level 1 to 24.
This incline setting represents a range
of motion.
Incline changes are not immediate. They
will take time to get to the target incline
angle.
