• The treadmill provides a 3-minute warm-up period before entering the Heart
Rate Program. During this time, you may make changes to the incline by
using the numeric keypad or INCLINE ▲▼ keys. Use the SPEED ▼▲ keys
to set the running belt’s speed.
Note: If your heart rate moves into the target zone for your age during the
3-minute warm-up period, the Heart Rate Program begins concurrently. If a
negative incline exists at the end of the warm-up period, the incline returns
to zero percent.
• After the warm-up period, the treadmill automatically adjusts the incline to
keep your heart rate at the selected target. Check the SmartRate
®
display to
see if you are in your preferred zone (cardiovascular or weight loss).
Important: Once you exit the warm-up period and begin the program, the
INCLINE ▼▲ keys no longer affect the actual incline of the treadmill.
Instead the keys are used to change your target heart rate. If you change
your target heart rate, the treadmill automatically readjusts the incline so
that your heart rate remains on target.
CAUTION: A warning message will appear if you go above your maximum
recommended heart rate target zone. Heed the warning and get permis-
sion from your personal physician before working out above the maxi-
mum recommended zone for your age and fitness level. See Diagram 21
on page 37 for the recommended training zones.
• When you reach the time limit, a cool-down period begins. You can override
the speed and incline by pressing the ▼ or ▲ keys.
Note: The speed remains constant, if you were at or below 0.5 mph (1.0 kph).
WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM
The Precor Weight Loss program incorporates the latest findings on fat-burning and
weight loss through exercise. It is based on research at the world-renowned Cooper
Institute for Aerobics Research and it is designed to help you burn the most fat
during a 28-minute workout, while minimizing the risk of discomfort and injury. The
Weight Loss program is similar to the Heart Rate Program, but the target heart
rates differ. The rest interval’s target heart rate is preset to 55% of (220 - your age),
while the work interval is preset to 70% of (220 - your age). The C996i automatically
adjusts the incline of the treadmill and maintains your heart rate settings while in
the rest or work intervals.
Note: For the C996i to detect a heart rate, the user must wear the POLAR
®
chest
strap or hold onto the touch-sensitive grips on the handrail. The POLAR
®
chest
strap is optional equipment that can be purchased from your dealer.
