d
each use, it may remain activated longer than nec-
ssary, draining the battery prematurely.
e
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
o not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
D
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct

Next, wrap the
chest pulse sensor around your
chest and attach
the other end of
the chest strap to
the sensor unit.
Adjust the length
of the chest strap,
if necessary. The
chest pulse sensor should be under your clothes, 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 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.

• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.
• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
strap may be hand washed and air dried.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
The instructions on the following pages explain
how the chest pulse sensor is used with the console. If the chest pulse sensor does not function
properly, try the steps below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sen-
sor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulse
sensor does not function when positioned as described, move 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, rewet the electrode areas.
• As you walk or run on the Incline Trainer, position
your- self 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 chest pulse sensor 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 contrac
tions (pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
-
CHEST PULSE SENSOR
• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each
use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate
monitor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off
when it is removed and the electrode areas are
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be
•
affected by magnetic interference caused by high

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
HE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT
T
The Incline Trainer features a walking belt coated with
high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never
pply silicone spray or other substances to the
a
alking belt or the walking platform. Such sub-
w
stances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause
excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
DANGER: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
The Incline Trainer, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of
the Incline Trainer being damaged, always use a
surge suppressor with the Incline Trainer (see
drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local NordicTrack dealer or call
the toll-free telephone number on the front cover
of this manual and order part number 146148, or
see your local electronics store.

HOW TO USE A SPEED PROGRAM OR AN
INCLINE PROGRAM
The console offers 10 speed programs and 15 incline
programs. All 25 programs automatically control the
speed and the incline of the Incline Trainer as they
guide you through effective workouts. Speed programs
regulate the intensity of your exercise primarily by
varying the speed of the walking belt, although they
also vary the incline; incline programs primarily vary
the incline, although they also vary the speed.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physi-
ian. This is especially important for individu-
c
als over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user’s movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids in determining heart rate
trends in general.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex
ercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
-
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body
begin to use stored
s to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the
i
Incline Trainer until your heart rate is near the lowest
number in your training zone.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline
of the Incline Trainer until your heart rate is near the
middle number in your training zone.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed and incline of the Incline Trainer until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone.
fat calories
for energy. If your goal
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age. The three numbers define your “train
ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended
heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the
handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible
carbohydrate calories

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase
the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your
training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few
weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your
pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never
hold your breath.
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min-
utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex
ercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key
to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable
part of your everyday life.
