Surge Suppressor

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indicate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change speed or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-

tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

HOW TO USE

Heart rate programs automatically adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target level while you exercise.

Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.

HEART RATE PROGRAMS

CAUTION: If you have heart prob-

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

Put on the chest pulse sensor.

To put on the chest pulse sensor, see page 8.

Insert the key fully into the console.

See GETTING STARTED on page 11.

During heart rate programs, the program display will show a graphic that represents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear.

Enter your age and a maximum speed setting.

Three seconds after a heart rate program is selected, the words “ENTER AGE” and the current age setting will appear in the main display. You must enter your age to use a heart rate program. If you have already entered your age, press the Start button (pressing the button will not start the program at this time). If you have not entered your age, press the Age/Weight Set buttons to enter your age. The buttons can be held down to enter your age quickly. Then, press the Start button. Once you have entered your age, it will be saved in memory.

Select a heart rate program.

When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select a heart rate program, first press the Select Goal button repeatedly until the words “HEART RATE” appear in the main display.

Next, press the Select Course button until the words “PULSE DRIVEN 1” or “PULSE DRIVEN 2” appear.

After you have entered your age, the words “ENTER MAX SPEED” and the maximum speed setting of the program will appear in the main display. If desired, press the Speed buttons or the 1step Speed buttons to change the maximum speed setting.

Press the Start button or the Speed + button to

start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. and begin walking.

Each heart rate program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. (The main display shows both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment of the program.) One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment.

Hold the handrails

If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the current target heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the main display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see page 8.

During each segment, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed of the treadmill will automatically increase or de crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the program (see step 4 on page 18) and your heart rate is still too far below the current target heart rate setting, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

During the last three seconds of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the speed setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the main display.

The program will continue until no time remains in the program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.

Follow your progress with the displays.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individu als over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.

The pulse sensors are not a medical devices. Various factors, including your movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The sensors are intended only as exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in general.

The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

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.

ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill 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 treadmill until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

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.

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 “training 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 pulse sensor. If your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill.

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 for en-

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 minutes 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.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
