2Reset the console and start the walking belt.
Slide the speed control to the RESET position. Note: Each time the walking belt is stopped, the speed control must be moved to the RESET position before the walking belt can be restarted.
Next, slowly slide the speed control until the walking belt be- gins to move at slow speed. Carefully step onto the walking belt and begin exercising. Change the speed of the walk- ing belt as desired by moving the speed control.
To stop the walking belt, step onto the foot rails and slide the speed control to the RESET position.
3Follow your progress with the four displays.
TIME displayÑThis display shows the elapsed time.
DISTANCE displayÑ This display shows the distance that you have walked or run, in miles.
SPEED displayÑThis display shows the speed of the walking belt, in miles per hour.
CALORIES/FAT CAL- ORIES/PULSE displayÑThis display shows the approximate numbers of calories and
fat calories you have burned. (See FAT
BURNING on page 14.) Every seven seconds, the display will change from one number to the other, as indicated by the mode arrows. This display also shows your pulse when the pulse sensor is used (see step 4).
The displays can be reset, if desired, by pressing the ON/RESET button.
4 Measure your pulse, if desired.
To measure your pulse, stand on the foot rails and place your thumb on the pulse sensor as shown. The
pulse sensor is pressure activatedÑfully press it down. Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. Next, raise your thumb slightly until the heart-
shaped indicator in the pulse display flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this level. After a few
seconds, three dashes will appear in
the display and your pulse will be shown. Hold your thumb on the sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accurate reading.
If the displayed pulse appears to be too high or too low, or if your pulse is not displayed, lift your thumb off the sensor and allow the display to reset. Press down again on the sensor as described above.
Make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown, and that you are applying the proper amount of pres- sure to the pulse sensor. Try the sensor several times until you become familiar with it. Remember to stand still while measuring your pulse.
5Adjust the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline, press the top or bottom of the incline control until the desired incline level is reached.
6Turn off the power.
To turn off the power, simply wait for about four minutes. If the walking belt is stationary and the console buttons are not pressed for four minutes, the power will turn off automatically.
