4.Change the incline of the treadmill as desired. To change the incline of

the treadmill, press the Incline increase and de- crease buttons or one of the numbered incline buttons. Each time you

press the incline increase or decrease button, the incline will change by 0.5%. If you press one of the numbered incline buttons, the treadmill will adjust to the selected incline setting. Note: After you press the buttons, it may take a moment for the treadmill to reach the selected incline setting.

5.Monitor your progress with the matrix and the displays.

The matrix—When the manual mode is se- lected, the display will show a track that repre- sents 1/4 mile (402 me- ters). As you exercise, the indicators around

the track will light in succession until the entire track is lit. The track will then darken and the indi- cators will again begin to light in succession. Time display—When

the manual mode is se- lected, this display will show the elapsed time. When a workout is se- lected, the display will

show the time remaining in the workout rather than the elapsed time.

Distance/Incline dis- play—This display shows the distance that you have walked or run. This display will also show the incline setting

for several seconds, each time the incline changes.

Calories/Pulse display—This display shows the approximate number of calories you have burned. The dis- play will also show your

heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sen- sor.

Speed display—This display shows the speed of the walking belt.

To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re- move the key, and then reinsert the key.

6.Measure your heart rate if desired. Before using the

handgrip pulse sensor, first re- move the sheets of clear plastic from the metal

contacts. In addi-Contacts tion, make sure

that your hands are clean.

To use the handgrip pulse sensor, stand on the foot rails and hold the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will be shown. For the most accu- rate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

7.When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console.

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 set- ting or you may damage the treadmill when you fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo- nents may wear prematurely.
