5 Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.

To change the incline of the treadmill, press the Incline increase and decrease buttons or one of the twelve 1-Step Incline buttons.

Each time the Incline increase or decrease button is pressed, the incline will change by 0.5%. If one of the 1-Step Incline buttons is pressed, the incline will gradually increase until it reaches the selected setting.

Note: The incline of the treadmill can also be con- trolled with the remote control. See HOW TO USE THE REMOTE CONTROL on page 28.

6 Adjust the cushioning system as desired.

The treadmill features

a cushioning system that reduces the im-

pact as you walk or run on the treadmill. There are fifteen firm- ness levels. To in- crease the firmness of the walking platform, turn the Active Response Cushioning dial counterclockwise. To decrease the firm-

ness, turn the dial

clockwise. The Active Response Cushioning dis- play will show the selected firmness level. If you wish to save the firmness level, press the Save button. Note: A clicking sound may be heard when the cushioning system is being adjusted.

Select a display mode and follow your

7 progress with the exercise information on the screen and in the Training Zone display.

As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can display the following exercise information:

•The elapsed time. Note: When a program is se- lected (except for a custom program), the screen will show the time remaining in the pro- gram instead of the elapsed time.

•The distance that you have walked or run. Note: To see the number of miles that you have walked or run during a recent period of time, such as the most recent month, press the

Odometer button; the words “My Distance” and the number of miles will appear on the screen. To reset this number, hold down the Odometer button for a few seconds. The screen will also show the words “Total Distance” and the total number of miles that you have walked or run since the treadmill was purchased. Note: The console can display distance and speed in ei- ther miles or kilometers (see HOW TO USE THE INFORMATION MODE on page 28). For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.

•Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be dis- played only when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

•The approximate number of calories you have burned.

•The incline level of the treadmill.

•Your walking or running pace, in minutes per mile.

•The approximate number of grams of carbs you have burned.

•The speed of the walking belt.

While the television is off, all of the above exercise information will be displayed on the screen. While the television is on, the display mode that you se- lect will determine which information is displayed— some or all of the information can be displayed on the right side, the bottom, or the left side of the screen. Or, the information can be turned off while you watch the television. Press the Display Mode button repeatedly to select the desired display mode.

As you exercise, the Training Zones display will indicate the approxi- mate intensity level of your exercise. For ex- ample, if six indicators in the display are lit, the display shows that your intensity level is ideal for fat burning.

To reset the console, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.
