Quick Start Guide (for TC6000 go to page 32)

The TC5300 has a QUICK START function that will bypass having to verify your WEIGHT and STEP HEIGHT, by going directly to the EXERCISE MODE.

To use the QUICK START mode perform the following steps:

1.Press the POWER key to turn on the display. The display will show SET STEP HEIGHT.

2.Press the START key. Now the display will go into EXERCISE MODE. The display will show SET SPEED.

3.The display is now in the EXERCISE MODE. The display will now prompt you to “SET SPEED” again using the “+” “-“ keys. As you press the “+” key the Walking Belts will begin at 0.5 mph (0.8 kph.) The speed of the walking belts can be increased up to 4.5 mph (7.2 kph.) The belt speed can be changed at any time during the exercise by pressing the “+” and “-“ keys. We recommend that you start out at a slow speed such as 1.5 mph until you become familiar with the exercise.

By performing the above steps, the user has bypassed setting the STEP HEIGHT from the hydraulic cylinders and setting their weight. Both of these factors are used in calculating the CALORIES and CALORIES per HOUR. The CALORIE and CALORIES per HOUR equations will instead, use the last values entered from the previous exercise or user.

If there is one user for this machine, and they do not tend to change their WORKOUT LEVEL (STEP HEIGHT) settings, the CALORIE and CAL/HOUR formulas will compute this information correctly even in the Quick Start Mode.
