Distance/Laps—The
center section of the main 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 few seconds; the Laps indicator will light when the number of laps is shown.
Calories/Pulse—
When you are not using the handgrip pulse sensor, the next section of the main dis- play will show the ap-
proximate numbers of calories and fat calories you have burned (see FAT BURNING on page
29). The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds; the Fat indicator will light when the number of fat calories is shown.
When you are using the handgrip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate (see step 6 at the right).
Note: The console can
display speed and dis- tance in either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of measure- ment is selected, hold
down the Stop button while inserting the key into the console. An “E” for English miles or an “M” for metric kilometers will appear on the right side of the main display. Press the Speed + button to change the unit of measurement. When the de- sired unit of measurement is selected, remove the key and then reinsert it. Note: For simplicity, all instructions in this manual refer to miles.
To reset the main display, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.
6 Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your hands on the metal contacts on the handrail. Your palms must be resting on the
upper contacts, and your fingers must be touching
the lower con-
ing your hands. When your pulse is detected, the Pulse indicator will light and then your heart rate will be shown in the main display. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
7 Turn on the fans if desired.
To turn on the fans at low speed, press the Fans button. To turn on the fans at high speed, press the Fans button a second time. To turn off the fans, press the Fans buttons a third time. Note: Any time that the walking belt is stopped for a few minutes, the fans will automatically turn off.
When you are finished exercising, stop the
8 walking belt and remove the key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest level.
The incline must be at the lowest level when the treadmill is raised to the storage position or the treadmill will be damaged. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place.
Note: If the displays and indicators on the con- sole remain lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. See page 24 and turn off the demo mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill, move the reset/off circuit breaker switch near the power cord to the off position and unplug the power cord.
