4.Change the incline of the treadmill as desired. To change the incline of the treadmill, press the Incline increase and decrease buttons or one of the numbered Quick 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 Quick 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.Follow your progress with the displays.

When the

 

manual

 

mode is se-

 

lected, the

 

upper half of

Track

the display

will show a

 

track that represents 1/4 mile (400 m). As you walk or run, indicators will appear in succession around the track until the entire track appears. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to appear in succession.

The upper half of the display can also show the elapsed time, the distance you have walked or run, the speed of the walking belt, the approximate number of calories you have burned, your pace in minutes per mile, and the incline of the treadmill. Press the Display button repeatedly until the de- sired workout information appears.

The lower left corner of the display will show the elapsed time, the distance that you have walked or run, and the incline level of the

treadmill. Note: When a quick calorie burn workout is selected, the display will show the time remain- ing in the workout instead of the elapsed time.

The lower right corner of the display will show the approximate number of calories you have burned, the speed of the

walking belt, and your pace in minutes per mile. The right side of the display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip heart rate monitor.

To reset the display, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.

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

handgrip heart rate monitor, re- move the sheets of plastic from the metal contacts. In

addition, make Metal Contacts sure that your

hands are clean.

To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your hands on the metal contacts— avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart symbol in the display will begin to flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate read- ing, continue to hold the contacts for at least 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, press the power switch into the off position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical components may wear prematurely.
