HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER IMPORTANT: If the incline trainer has been ex- posed to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room temperature before turning on the power. If you do not do this, you may damage the console displays or other electrical components.

Plug in the power cord (see

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

page 12). Next, locate the

sure that the circuit breaker

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is in the reset position.

 

 

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo

mode, designed to be used if the incline trainer is

displayed in a store. If the displays light as soon

as you plug in the power cord and switch the

reset/off circuit breaker to the reset position, the

demo mode is turned on. To turn off the demo

mode, hold down the Stop button for a few sec-

onds. If the displays remain lit, see THE INFORMA-

TION MODE on page 19 to turn off the demo mode.

If the console is in demo mode, the incline will auto-

matically rise to the maximum incline level.

Next, stand on the walking

 

platform of the incline

 

trainer. Locate the clip at-

Key

tached to the key (see the

drawing at the right), and

 

slide the clip securely onto

Clip

the waistband of your

clothes. Then, insert the

 

key into the console. After

 

a moment, the displays will light. IMPORTANT: In an

emergency situation, the key can be pulled from

the console, causing the walking belt to slow to a

stop. Test the clip by carefully taking a few steps

backward; if the key is not pulled from the console,

adjust the position of the clip.

 

IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of plastic on the face of the console, remove the plastic. To prevent damage to the walking platform, wear clean ath- letic shoes while using the incline trainer. The first time the incline trainer is used, observe the align- ment of the walking belt, and center the walking belt if necessary (see page 23).

Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of mea- surement is selected, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page 19. For simplicity, all instructions in this man- ual refer to miles.

HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

1.Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left. If necessary, press the Incline buttons to lower the incline to the minimum incline level.

2.Select the manual mode.

Each time the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. If you have selected a workout, press any of the workout buttons repeatedly until the words MANUAL CONTROL appear in the dis- play.

3.Start the walking belt and adjust the speed.

To start the walking belt, press the Start button, the Speed increase button, or one of the 1 Step Speed buttons numbered 1 to 10.

If you press the Start button or the Speed increase button, the walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. As you exercise, change the speed of the walking belt as desired by pressing the Speed in- crease and decrease buttons next to the Start but- ton. Each time you press one of the buttons, the speed setting will change by 0.1 mph; if you hold down the button, the speed setting will change in increments of 0.5 mph. If you press one of the numbered 1 Step Speed buttons, the walking belt will gradually change speed until it reaches the se- lected speed setting.

To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To restart the walking belt, press the Start button, the Speed increase button, or one of the numbered 1 Step Speed buttons.

4.Change the incline of the incline trainer as desired.

To change the incline of the incline trainer, press the Incline increase and decrease buttons or one of the 1 Step Incline buttons numbered 0 to 40.

Each time you press one of the buttons, the incline will gradually change until it reaches the selected incline setting. Note: As the incline increases, the maximum speed of the incline trainer will decrease. When the incline is from 0% to 15%, the maximum speed will be 10 mph; when the incline is from 15.5% to 25%, the maximum speed will be 8 mph; when the incline is from 25.5% to 35%, the maximum speed will be 5 mph; and when the incline is from 35.5% to 40%, the maximum speed will be 3 mph.
