FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more effective. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the
MyTracks™ StepCounter
Walking is one of the most popular exercises world- wide. Walking does not require advanced conditioning or special skills, yet it produces numerous benefits, such as increased calorie burning, a slimmer waist, toned muscles, enhanced energy and stamina, lower blood pressure, and reduced stress.
To track your walking exercise, the console features a new MyTracks™ StepCounter that counts the number of steps that you take during each workout. In addition, the console offers a MyTracks™ StepCounter program that allows you to enter the number of steps that you plan to walk, and counts down the steps as you exercise.
More reliable than conventional pedometers, the MyTracks™ StepCounter is highly accurate with most users. For the best results, try to maintain a steady pace, a uniform stride length, and a consistent position on the treadmill as you walk. Lighter users may also find it helpful to reduce the incline of the treadmill or to increase the speed of the walking belt.
Preset Programs
The console also features four preset programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 12. To use the MyTracks™ StepCounter program, see page 13. To use a preset program, see page 14.
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
Plug in the power cord (see page 10). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker lo- Reset
cated on the treadmill frame near the power cord. Make
sure that the circuit breaker is in the “reset” position.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Locate the clip attached to the key (see the drawing above), and slide the clip securely onto the waistband of your clothes. Then, insert the key into the console. After a moment, the displays will light. Important: In an emergency situation, the key can be pulled from the console, causing the walking belt to slow to a stop. Test the clip by carefully taking a few steps backward; if the key is not pulled from the console, adjust the position of the clip.
Note: To prevent damage to the walking platform, always wear clean shoes when using the treadmill.
