To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your hands on the metal con- tacts—avoid moving your hands.

Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting when the treadmill is folded to the storage posi- tion, or the treadmill will be damaged. Next, re- move the key from the console and put it in a se- cure place. Note: If the display remains lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. See page 17 and turn off the demo mode.

When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the on/off switch to the “off” position and unplug the power cord.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM

1 Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 14.

2 Select a preset program.

To select one of the five preset programs, press

the Program Select but-

ton repeatedly until “P–1,” “P–2,” “P–3,” “P–4,” or “P–5” appears

in the display. When a preset program is selected, the maximum incline setting of the program and the maximum speed setting of the program will flash in the display for a few seconds. The display will then show how long the program will last. A profile of the speed settings of the program will scroll across the matrix in the upper right corner of the display.

Press the Start button or the Speed increase

3 button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each program is divided into 30 one-minute peri- ods. One speed setting and one incline setting are programmed for each period. Note: The same speed setting and/or incline setting may be pro- grammed for two or more consecutive periods.

The speed setting for the first period will be

shown in the flashing Current Period column of the matrix in the dis- play. (The incline set-

tings are not shown in the matrix.) The speed set- tings for the next few periods will be shown in the columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first period of the program, both the Current Period column and the column to the right will flash and a series of tones will sound. If the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the display to alert you.
