Exercising on the Treadmill

Once the C956 or C954 is set up, it is ready to use.There are no complex instruc- tions to follow or mandatory programming steps required to operate the treadmill. The easy-to-understand prompts let you select a course and specify how long you want to work out. Begin working out and then, adapt the speed and incline level to meet your fitness goals.

CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness program, have your physician give you a complete physical examination.

USING THE SECURITY CLIP

A security clip is attached by its cord to the red Stop button that straddles the handrail. Always attach the security clip to your clothing before each work- out. A tug on the cord trips the security switch and slows the running belt to a stop. If the security switch trips while you are working out, the treadmill retains your workout statistics and enters Pause mode. To resume your workout, re attach the security clip to your clothing, and press the Speed ▲ key until you reach the desired speed.

Important: Club owners, managers, personal trainers. Remind users how impor- tant it is to use the security clip while working out on the treadmill. Instruct them on how to attach it to their clothing near their waistline. If any complications occur, a strong tug on the security cord will stop the running belt.

Note: A velcro patch is located on the right side of the console by the handrail. Use it to store the clip while the treadmill is not being used.
