The incline of the machine will change by .5 percent every time the buttons are pressed. With each press on the incline buttons, the machine will take a moment to actually reach the incline setting that was just selected.

    Capacity of Weight

    • Users who are larger than or weigh more than the average person will be pleased with the added capacity of weight that the Nordic Track C2050 allows. Unlike most treadmills in its economy class that only allow a weight limit of 200 to 250 pounds, this model lets users who weigh as much as 300 pounds use the machine safely. Larger people can get the benefits of a cardiovascular workout on this treadmill without worrying about damaging it.

    Heart Rate Measurement

    • This Nordic Track model allows users to measure their heart rate. All the machine requires is for users to place their feet on its foot rails and grasp the metal contacts with their hands. The Nordic Track C2050 then works to determine your pulse, and the symbol of a heart will eventually show up in the display. After a couple of dashes show up, your heart rate will be displayed. Users who want to be certain of getting an accurate reading should ensure their hands are clean when gripping the metal contacts.

    Fan Option

    • If the workout on this treadmill ever gets too uncomfortable for users, they can activate its fan. They can turn on the fan and operate it by pressing the AutoBreeze Fans button. When users press the button, the number "1" is going to show up in the display below the word "Fan." To switch the speed of the fan to medium, press the button two times; to switch the fan to high speed, press the button a third time. Users can also press the button a fourth time to reach auto mode. In this mode, the fan automatically changes speeds based on the walking belt's speed.
