5. Follow your progress with the displays.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display can
show the following workout information:
• The elapsed time
• The distance that you have walked or run
• The workout intensity bar
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned
• The incline level of the treadmill
• The number of vertical feet you have climbed
• The speed of the walking belt
• Your heart rate (see step 6)
• The matrix
The matrix offers several display tabs. Press the
increase and decrease button next to the Enter
button until the desired tab is shown.
The Incline tab will show a profile of the incline set-
tings of the workout. A new segment will appear at
the end of each minute. The Speed tab will show a
profile of the speed settings of the workout.
The My Trail tab will show a track that represents
1/4 mile (400 m). As you exercise, the flashing
rectangle will show your progress. The My Trail tab
will also show the number of laps you complete.
The Calorie tab will show the approximate amount
of calories you have burned. The height of each
segment represents the amount of calories burned
during that segment. When the Calorie tab is
selected, the calorie display will show the approxi-
mate number of calories burned per hour.
As you exercise, the workout intensity level bar
will indicate the approximate intensity level of your
exercise.
Press the Home button to return to the default
menu (see THE SETTINGS MODE on page 28
to set the default menu). If necessary, press the
Home button again.
When an iFit module is con-
nected, the wireless symbol
at the top of the display will
show the strength of your
wireless signal. Four arcs
indicate full signal strength.
To reset the displays, press the Stop button,
remove the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip heart rate moni-
tor and the chest heart rate monitor at the same
time, the console will not display your heart
rate accurately. For information about the chest
heart rate monitor, see page 20.
Before using
the handgrip
heart rate moni-
tor, remove the
sheets of plastic
from the metal
contacts on the
pulse bar. In
addition, make
sure that your
hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and hold the pulse bar with your palms on the
metal contacts; avoid moving your hands. When
your pulse is detected, a heart symbol in the calorie
display will flash each time your heart beats, one
or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate
will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, continue to hold the metal contacts for
about 15 seconds.
