HOW TO CREATE A CUSTOM PROGRAM

Custom programs are workout programs that you create. The programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill, and can be up to 40 minutes long. The programs are stored in the console’s memory, and can be changed as many times as desired. Follow the steps below to create a custom program.

1 Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 11.

2 Select one of the custom programs.

When the key is inserted, the manual mode will automatically be selected, as shown by the MANUAL indicator. To select one

of the custom programs,

press the USER 1 or USER 2 button. The letters “CP1” or “CP2”

will appear in the CALS./

FAT CALS./PULSE

display to show which program you have selected. The TIME/PACE display will show how long the program is set to last. (The program can be set to last for a different length of time, as explained later.) Note: If the walking belt is moving when a custom program is selected, the walking belt will slow to a stop. In addition, if the incline of the treadmill is higher than 1.5%, it will automatically decrease to 1.5%.

3 Put on the chest pulse sensor, if desired.

If you want to wear the chest pulse sensor, see HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR on page 7.

4 Enter your weight, if desired.

If your weight is entered into the console, the console will more accurately measure the numbers of calories and fat calories you burn. To enter your weight, see step 4 on page 12.

5 Press the START button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the walking belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Press the RECORD button and program the

 

 

desired speed and incline settings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When the RECORD button is pressed, the indicator

 

 

 

on the button will light. Speed and incline settings

 

 

 

can be programmed only when the indicator on

 

 

 

the button is lit.

 

 

 

Each custom program is divided into one-minute

 

 

 

periods. One speed setting and one incline setting

 

 

 

can be programmed for each period. To program

 

 

 

speed and incline settings for the first one-minute

 

 

 

period of the program, simply adjust the speed and

 

 

 

incline of the treadmill as desired with the SPEED

 

 

 

and INCLINE buttons.

 

 

 

When the first one-minute period of the program is

 

 

 

completed, the current speed and incline settings

 

 

 

will be stored in the console’s memory. Program

 

 

 

speed and incline settings for the second one-

 

 

 

minute period in the same way. Repeat this

 

 

 

procedure until you have programmed speed and

 

 

 

incline settings for as many one-minute periods as

 

 

 

desired. Custom programs can have up to forty

 

 

 

periods.

 

 

 

Note: To stop the program for a moment, press the

 

 

 

STOP/PAUSE button. All displays will pause and

 

 

 

the TIME/PACE display will begin to flash. To

 

 

 

restart the program, press the START button.

 

 

 

Hold down the STOP/PAUSE button for two

seconds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you have programmed speed and incline

 

 

 

settings for as many one-minute periods as

 

 

 

desired, hold down the STOP/PAUSE button for

 

 

 

two seconds. The speed and incline settings that

 

 

 

you have programmed and the length of the program

 

 

 

will be stored in the console’s memory. To use the

 

 

 

program again, see HOW TO USE A CUSTOM

 

 

 

PROGRAM at the right.

8 When the program is completed, remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails. Make sure that the incline of the treadmill is set at 1.5%. Remove the key from the console. Store the key in a secure place. In addition, press the on/off switch to the “off” position. (See the drawing on page 11.)
