D.Start: Causes the belt to begin moving at 0.5 mph and 0% elevation.

E. Stop: Causes the belt to slow to a gradual stop. One push pauses the workout, two pushes display workout informa- tion, and three pushes reset the workout.

F.Incline Arrows: Change the belt’s incline gradually, increasing (UP ARROW) or decreasing (DOWN ARROW) the incline by 0.5% each time the user presses an arrow.

G.Speed Arrows: Change the belt’s speed gradually, increasing (UP ARROW) or decreasing (DOWN ARROW) the speed by 0.1 mph each time the user presses an arrow.

H.Low/Med/High: Changes the belt’s incline immediately to a preset value. Initially these buttons are set to change the incline to 1.5% (Low), 3% (Mid) and 5% (High). However, the user can set these buttons to new values by first changing the belt’s incline to the desired new value, then holding down the button the new value will be assigned to until the treadmill beeps.

I.Walk/Jog/Run: Changes the belt’s speed immediately to a preset value. Initially these buttons are set to change the speed to 2 mph (Walk), 4 mph (Jog) and 6 mph (Run). However, the user can set these buttons to new values by first changing the belt’s speed to the desired new value, then holding down the button the new value will be assigned to until the treadmill beeps.

J.E-Stop Magnet: This circular magnet connects to the E-Stop Lanyard, which must be clipped to the user’s clothing when the treadmill is in use. Pulling the lanyard so that it comes free of the magnet will stop the treadmill’s striding belt. This serves as a safety feature, stopping the belt should the user stumble or fall. Replacing the magnet will show the Workout Summary data.

Note: Removing the E-Stop Magnet stops the walking belt and incline motor, but all parts are still electrically ener- gized. In case of electrically caused errors, remove the power cord from the electrical outlet.
