FEATURES

HANDRAIL ADJUSTMENTS

The XT485 treadmill allows you to make speed and incline changes on the side handrails. You can also choose to turn these off if you frequently hold on to these rails. This is achieved by pressing the disable button on the right side of the lower portion of the console.

QUICK SPEED & INCLINE BUTTONS

You are able to set your speed and incline settings quickly by using the quick keys on the console. Just press either Speed or Incline, then select either 1 or 2 digits and the treadmill will automatically adjust to that value. This saves time because you don’t have to press and hold or hold a button down until reaching the desired value. The maximum value you may input for speed is 9.9 mph or kmph and incline 9.5%

Examples: Press the Quick Incline button, then 1, 0 = Incline Level 1.0 Press the Quick Incline button, then 3, 5 = Incline Level 3.5

Press the Quick Speed button, then 8, 0 = 8.0 mph or kmph Press the Quick Speed button, then 0, 8 = 0.8 mph or kmph

CONSOLE

MUSCLE ACTIVATION FIGURE

There is an anatomical figure located at the top of the console. This figure will light all areas that are activated when using the treadmilll. These will light up during any of the programs. You can control which muscles are activated by changing the incline and swinging your arms. The pre-set programs will determine which lower body muscles will be activated by automatically adjusting the incline. Generally the following guidelines hold true:

•The upper body LED’s will light any time your hands aren’t in contact with the pulse grip sensors

•The lower body lights will activate in three degrees of engagement: Green represents minimal muscle involvement, Amber represents medium involvement, and Red represents full or heavy activation.

0-4.5% Elevation: even muscle distribution, all four muscle groups will be Amber

5-15% Elevation: Quads are Amber and Glutes, Hamstrings, and Calves are Red
