PROGRAMMABLE MODE OPERATION

In the programmable mode, the console will automati- cally control either the speed of the walking belt or the incline of the treadmill, according to programs you cre- ate. Follow the four steps below to create a program.

1. Select the WALK, RUN or INCLINE Mode

Press the MODE button repeatedly to select the WALK, RUN or INCLINE mode. An Indicator will light to show which mode you have selected.

If you select the WALK mode, the console will auto- matically control the speed of the walking belt during the program, and the speed range will be about 1 to 5 mph; if you select the RUN mode, the console will automatically control the speed of the walking belt, and the speed range will be about 2 to 10 mph; if you select the incline mode, the console will automatically control the incline of the treadmill, and the incline range will be 2% to 12%. Note: If you select the WALK or RUN mode, the incline can be manually controlled dur- ing the program by pressing the INCLINE buttons. If you select the INCLINE mode, the speed can be con- trolled by moving the manual speed control.

2. Program Eight Speed or Incline SeEings

The program is divided into eight equal time pedods, called segments. If you selected the WALK or RUN mode, you should now program a different speed set- ting for each of the segments. If you selected the

INCLINE mode, you should program a different incline setting for each of the segments. The settings can be programmed using the eight programmable controls on the left side of the console (see the drawing below).

The programmable control numbered 1 is for the first segment, the control numbered 2 is for the second segment, the control numbered 3 is for the third seg- ment, and so forth. Move each programmable control up or down to program the desired speed or incline setting. A sample program is shown above. This pro- gram will begin with a low speed or incline setting. The setting will then increase dudng the second and third segments, decrease dudng the fourth segment,

increase dudng the fifth and sixth segments, and de- crease dudng the seventh and eighth segments. An

infinite vadety of settings can be programmed.

 

Note: The program should begin and end with low

 

settings to provide warm-up and cool-down peri-

 

ods. Do not set adjacent programmable controls

 

too far apart; If the speed changes too rapidly, you

 

may lose your balance and fall.

 

3. Set the Program Time

 

Press the TIME SET buttons to set the length of time

 

that you want the program to last. The length of time is

 

shown in the TIME display. Each time one of the but-

 

tons is pressed, the length of time will change by 4

 

minutes. The buttons can be held down to set the

 

length of time rapidly. The program can be set for a

 

minimum of 4 minutes, up to a maximum of 96 minutes.

 

4. Press the PROGRAM STARTButton

 

To start the program, press the PROGRAM START

 

button. The first segment indicator will begin to flash,

 

and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed

 

or incline setting of the first programmable control. (If

 

yo.uselected the INCLINE mode, move the manual

 

speed control to the =reset" position. Then, slide the

 

control to the dght until the walking belt begins to

 

move.) Hold the handrails, step carefully onto the walk-

 

ing belt and begin exemising. The time remaining in

 

the program will be shown in the TIME display. When

 

one-eighth of the total length of time you set has

 

elapsed, the second segment indicator will begin to

 

flash, and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the

 

speed or incline setting of the second programmable

 

control. The program will continue in this manner until

 

the eighth segment indicator is flashing, and no time

 

remains in the TIME display. The walking belt will then

 

slow to a stop and the program will be completed.

 

Note: If you selected the WALK or RUN mode, the

 

incline of the treadmill can be controlled dudng the pro-

 

gram by pressing the INCLINE buttons. The speed of

 

the walking belt can be adjusted, if desired, by moving

 

the programmable control below the flashing segment

 

indicator. If you selected the INCLINE mode, the

 

speed of the walking belt can be controlled dudng the

 

program by moving the manual speed control. The

 

incline of the treadmill can be adjusted, if desired, by

 

moving the programmable control below the flashing

 

segment indicator.

 

If you wish to stop the program before the program has

 

been completed, press the MODE button. The console

 

will then be in the same state as if the program had

 

been completed. After the program is completed, the

 

console can be switched to a different mode by repeat-

 

edly pressing the MODE button.
