4Follow your progress with the LED track and the four displays.
The LED
TrackÑThe LED
track represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As you ex- ercise, the indica- tors around the
track will light one at a time until you
have completed 1/4 mile. A new lap will then begin.
DISTANCE/LAPS displayÑThis display
shows the distance that you have walked and
the number of laps you have completed. The
display will change from one number to the other every seven seconds. An ÒLÓ will appear in the dis- play when the number of laps is shown. Note: If the KPH indicator beside the SPEED display is lit, the distance will be shown in kilometers; if the indicator is not lit, the distance will be shown in miles.
SPEED displayÑThis display shows the speed
of the walking belt. If the KPH indicator beside
the display is lit, the speed will be shown in
kilometers; if the indicator is dark, the speed will be shown in miles. To change the unit of measurement, press the START/RESET button for seven seconds.
CALS/FAT CALS/ PULSE displayÑThis display shows the ap- proximate numbers of
calories and fat calo- ries you have burned.
(See BURNING FAT on page 14 for an explanation of fat calories.) Every seven seconds, the display will change from one number to the other. The FAT indicator will light when the number of fat calories is shown. Note: This display also shows your pulse when the pulse sensor is used.
TIME displayÑThis display shows the total time that you have walked since the display was reset.
Note: If the walking belt is stopped and no console buttons are pressed for five minutes, the displays will automatically turn off. To light the displays, press the START/RESET button.
To reset the displays, press the START/ RESET button. The dis- plays will darken for a moment and then light.
