1 Level/Incline Display
a. Level Display (Bikes/Cross-Trainers) –
There are two types of levels used on Life Fitness bikes and cross-trainers. The
first type of level is the actual brake resistance level. This type of level is only adjustable by the user in a manual workout. The range of possible brake resistance levels is 1-20. The second type of level is difficulty level. There are 20 difficulty levels. Difficulty level corresponds to a range of actual brake resistance levels and is only used in random, hill, ez incline, and sports training workouts. So when you select a difficulty level of 10 it corresponds to a range of actual brake resistance levels of 5-14. During random, hill, ez incline, and sports training the difficulty level will only be displayed during workout setup and anytime you choose to change the level during the workout. At all other times during a workout the actual level will be displayed. Please see the table on the following page for specific difficulty level information.
b.Level / Incline Display (Treadmills) – There are two types of levels used on Life Fitness treadmills. The
first type of level is an incline level or percentage. Incline level is only manually adjusted by the user in a manual workout. The range of possible incline percentages is 0-12% and can be adjusted in 0.5% increments. The second difficulty level corresponds to a range of actual incline percentages. Difficulty levels are only used in random, hill, ez incline, and sports training workouts. So when a user selects a difficulty level of 10 it corresponds to a range of incline percentages between 3% and 7%. During random, hill, ez incline, and sports training the difficulty level will be displayed only during workout setup and anytime the difficulty level is changed during the workout. At all other times during these workouts the incline percentage is displayed. Please see the table on the following page for specific difficulty level information.
c. Changing the Level during a Workout –
To change the level during a workout the underscore beneath the top row of workout feedback needs to be positioned under level. If the underscore is not under level, it can be moved using the left/right arrow keys. To adjust the level simply press the up and down keys.
