HOW TO USE THE FITNESS TEST PROGRAM

The FITNESS TEST program is designed to measure your relative fitness level. For the best results, the FITNESS TEST should be taken at a time when your energy level is high. The FITNESS TEST should not be taken if you have already exercised during the day.

The FITNESS TEST program consists of seven 4- minute periods, and is followed by a 2-minute cool- down period. The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically increase at the beginning of each 4-

16minute period.

To use the FITNESS TEST program, follow the steps below.

Make sure that the key is fully inserted into the

1 console.

Stand on the foot rails and insert the key. Various displays and indicators will light. Find the clip attached to the key, and slide it onto the waistband of your clothing.

2 Select the FITNESS TEST program.

To select the FIT- NESS TEST pro-

gram, press the MODE button repeat-

edly until the FIT- NESS TEST indicator lights. Note: If the

walking belt is moving, it will slow to a stop.

When the FITNESS TEST program is selected, the letters “LbS” will flash in the CALORIES display. You must enter your weight and age before this pro- gram can be started.
