alka(ine batteries. The batteries _rl be installed by
carefully removing the unit from the console with a
screwdriver and removing the battery cover from the
back of the unit. NOTE: When replacing batteries you

CALORIES
Computes estimated calode.exp.enditure,: Please note that many variables enter into the c_Jode
calculation, such as age,: sex, weight, and metabolism. This electronic monitor calculates an
estimated calorie expenditure from the duration of use and the distance traveled, assuming a 160
pound user and a treadmi!! elevation of 3_5%.
TIME
Measures elapsed workout time in minutes and seconds. On certain models, the monitor will only
display in minutes after twenty minutes have elapsed.
DISTANCE
Measures olaf)seal distance in miles.
PULSEDisplays current pulse rate.
To use this function, attach the detector to your ear lobe as shown in Figure 6, and attach the wire
clip to your clothing to minimize motion of the detector. If the monitor detects a pulse, a flashing heart
will appear in the pulse display screen and your current pulse will be displayed. If the monitor does
not detect a pulse, a "P" will appear in the display screen.
NOTE: If there is difficulty in detecting a pulse, gently rub the ear lobe to generate blood circulation
in that area. Approximately 5% of all people do not have a sufficient supply of blood moving through
the ear lobe to detect a pulse, especially people with'pienz_ed ears. ':
NOTE: Pulse readings will fluctuate due to the motion of the detector and other influences. The
Individual readings that seem abnormal should be ignored.
