Time display will flash the maximum incline setting for the program for six seconds, and the Speed/Min-mile display will flash the maximum speed setting.

The four profiles on the right side of the console show how the speed and incline of the treadmill will change during the programs. The numbers

Press the Start button or the Speed

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 for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each program is divided into several time seg- ments of different lengths. The Time/Incline/ Segment Time display will show both the time re- maining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment of the program. One speed setting and one incline setting are programmed for

each segment

. (The same speed setting and/or in-

cline setting may be pro-

Current Segment

grammed for consecutive

 

segments.)

The speed

 

setting for the first seg-

 

ment will be shown in

 

the flashing Current

 

Segment column of the

 

program display. (The

 

incline settings are not shown in the program dis- play.) The speed settings for the next four seg- ments will be shown in the four columns to the right.

During the last three seconds of the first segment, both the Current Segment column and the column

to the right will flash and one or more tones will sound. The Speed/Min-mile display and the Time/Incline/Segment Time display will also flash if the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change. When the first segment is completed,

all speed settings will move one columnto the left; the speed setting for the second segment will then

be shown in the Current Segment column and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the second segment.

Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit after the speed settings

have moved to the left, the speed settings will also move down so that only the highest lit indicators appear. If some of the indicators in the Current Segment column are not lit after the speed set-

tings have moved to the left again, the speed set- tings will move back up.

The program will continue until the speed setting for the final segment is shown in the Current Segment column and no time remains in the Time/Incline/Segment Time display. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

Note: If the speed or incline setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed or Incline buttons. Every few times a Speed button is pressed, an additional indicator will light or darken in the Current Segment column. If any of the

columns to the right of the Current Segment col- umn have the same number of lit indicators as the Current Segment column, an additional indicator

may light or darken in those columns as well.

Important: When the current segment of the program ends, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the next segment.
