GUIDELINES FOR OBTAINING ACCURATE PULSE
READINGS
The instructions on page 11 explain how the pulse
sensor is used with the console (see HOW TO USE
THE PULSE DISPLAY). For the best results, remem-
ber the following important guidelines:
1. Before putting on the headband, rub your forehead
for a moment to stimulate circulation.
2. Make sure that the headband fits snugly around
your head, withoutbeing uncomfortable. If the
headband is too loose or too tight, your pulse-may
not be detected. 7
f
01.The headband must be worn with the sensor win-
dow centered on your forehead (see HOW TO PUT
ON THE PULSE SENSOR on page 7). The small
button next to the sensor window must be
depressed. Make sure that there Is no hair In front of
the pulse sensor or between the sensor window and
your forehead. Make-up applied to the forehead
may also Interfere withpulse readings.
Note: If the pulse sensor does not detect your pulse
when the sensor windowis centered on your fore-
heed, try positioningthe sensor window above your
right or left eyebrow. Depending on the shape of
your forehead, your pulse may be detected more
easily from a slightly different position.
4. Avoid turning your head more than 30°away from
the console, or the console may not pick up the
signal from the pulse sensor.
5. The sensor window should be cleaned weekly when
the treadmill is used regularly. Moisten a cotton
swab with water, and carefully wipe the sensor win-
dow.
6. Because your pulse constantlychanges, the pulse
sensor will sample and average your pulse every
few seconds. When you first put on the pulse sen-
sor, it may take up to ten seconds before an accu-
rate pulse Is shown.
7. If the pulse sensor does not function properly, check
the batteries (see HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES
on page 7).
HOW TO CLEAN THE PULSE SENSOR AND
HEADBAND
To clean the pulse sensor, first remove the headband.
Wipe the pulse sensor dean with a damp cloth.Never
Immerse the pulse sensor In water. To dean the

cord having an equlpment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into asurge
protector, and plug the surge protector into an
appropriate outlet that Is properly Installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has agrounding plug that looks like the plug Illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
locks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep-
tacle as shown in draw',ng2 if a properly grounded out-
let is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by aqualified electrician.
Your treadmill, 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 con-
ditions or from other
appliances being turned 1
on or off. To decrease
the possibility of your
treadmill belg._ dam-
aged, always use a
surge protector (not
Included) with your
treadmlll.
Surge protectors are
sold at most hardware
stores and department
stores. Use only a UL-
listed surge protector,
rated at 15 amps, with a
14-gauge cord of rNe
feet or less in length.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
22
The following guidelines willhelp you to plan your
exercise program. Remember--these guidelines are
general in nature. For more detailed information about
exercise, obtain a reputable book or consult your
physician.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether you want to bum fat or to strengthen your car-
diovascular system, you can tailor your exercise to
your specific goals. The key to achieving the desired
results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
Bumthg Fat
To bum fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
lowintensity level for asustainedperiod of time.
Duringthe first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. Only after the firstfew minutes of exercise does
your.body begin to use stored fatcalories for energy.
If your goal is to bum fat, the console's built-in Fat
Calode Monitor will help you to maintain the proper
intensity level. As you exercise, the Fat Calode Monitor
will show you when your exercise intensity is toe low,-
too high, or perfect for burning fat. (see HOW TO USE
THE FAT CALORIE MONITOR on page 12.)
Cardiovascular Exerclse
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be "aerobic."Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged pedods of time. Aerobic exercise increases
the demand on the heart to pump blood to the mus-
cles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. The
proper intensity level for aerobic exercise can be found
by using your pulse as a guide. As you exercise, your
pulse should be kept at alevel behveen 70% and 85%
of your maximum possible heart rate. "l"his is known as
your training zone. You can find your training zone in

the table above. Training zones are listed according to
age and physicalcondition.
Dudng the first few months of your exercise program,
keep your pulse near the low end of your trainingzone
as you exercise. After a few months of regular exer-
cise, your pulse can be gradually increased until it is
near the middle of your training zone as you exercise.
You can measure your pulse using the pulse sensor.
Exercise for about four minutes, and then measure
your pulse immediately. If your pulse is toe high,
decrease the intensityof your exercise. If your pulse is
