CAUTION: Before operating the console, read the following precautions.

Do not stand on the walking belt when turn- ing on the power.

Always wear the clip (see the drawing below) while operating the treadmill.

Adjust the speed in small increments in order to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is in- tended only as an exercise aid in determin- ing heart rate trends in general.

If you have heart problems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the heart rate programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise hart rate.

To reduce the possibility of electric shock, keep the console dry. Avoid spilling liquids on the console and place only a sealed water bottle in the water bottle holder.

During calibration, the left side of the main display will show two dashes (– –) and the seg- ment time indicator will flash.

5 Enter your weight.

Although you can use the console without enter- ing your weight, the console will count your calorie expenditure more accurately if you enter your weight. To enter your weight, press either of the Age/Weight Set buttons. The words “ENTER WEIGHT” and the current weight setting will ap- pear in the main display. Press the Age/Weight Set buttons again to enter your weight. The but- tons can be held down to enter your weight quickly. Your weight will then be saved in memory.
