Within each level are seven incline percentages, or hills. During a workout, each hill appears in the CLASSIC PROFILE window as rows of light stacked in a column. The number of lit rows within a column corresponds to an incline percent- age. For example, in Level 5, the lowest incline is 0.0 percent and is represented as one lit row. The highest incline, 4.3 percent, is represented by a column with all seven rows lit.

In the HILL and RANDOM workouts, these varying hills occur for equal durations, as discussed in the HILL workout description. When the workout program brings up a new hill, the incline percentage changes automatically to match that hill.

To change levels during a workout, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad.

COOL DOWN

Life Fitness' unique cool down protocol automatically customizes every cool down based on each user's workout perfor- mance. Workout performance factors, such as speed, incline, duration, and heart rate, determine the duration and inten- sity of the cool-down.
