A flashing mode indicator will show which mode is Mode Indicator currently displayed. The modes are described below. • Speed-This mode shows your speed, in miles per hour. • Time-This mode shows the elapsed time. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or longer, the time mode will pause. • Distance (DIST)-This mode shows the total number of miles you have walked or run. • Fat Calories (FAT CALS)-This mode shows the approximate number of fat calories you have burned. (See FAT BURNING on page 14.) • Calories (CALS)-This mode shows the approximate number of calories you have burned. • Pulse-This mode shows your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5). If desired, reset the display by pressing the ON/RESET button. 5 Measure your heart rate, if desired. To measure your heart rate, stand Pulse Sensor on the foot rails and place your thumb on the pulse sensor as shown. The pulse sensor is pressure acti- vated-fully press it down. Do not press too hard, or the circula- Pulse Indicator tion in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. Next, raise your thumb slightly until the heart- shaped indicator in the pulse display flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this level. After a few seconds, three dashes will appear in the display and then your heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on the sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accurate reading. If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your thumb off the sensor and allow the display to reset. Press down again on the sensor as described above. Make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown, and that you are applying the proper amount of pressure. Try the sensor several times until you become familiar with it. Remember to stand still while measuring your heart rate. 6 When you are finished exercising, stop the walking belt and remove the key. Step onto the foot rails, stop the walking belt and remove the key from the console. The displays will turn off about six minutes after the key is removed. Note: The display will automatically turn off in order to conserve the batteries any time that the walking belt is stopped and the ON/RESET button is not pressed for six minutes. 9
