6 Press the START button or the SPEED + button to start the program.

A moment after the but- ton is pressed, the in- cline of the treadmill will automatically adjust to 3% and the walking belt will begin to move at 1.5

mph. The DISTANCE/LAPS display will show an “L 1” (level 1), indicating that the first 4-minute segment of the fitness test program has begun. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

The fitness test program is divided into seven, four-minute segments. Each segment consists of four, one-minute periods. One speed setting and one incline

setting are

programmed for each pe- riod. The speed setting for the first pe- riod will be shown in the flashing

CURRENT PERIOD column of the LED matrix. (The incline settings are not shown in the matrix.) The speed settings for the next eighteen periods will be shown in the eighteen columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first pe- riod of the program, both the CURRENT PERIOD column and the column to the right will flash, a tone will sound, and all speed settings will move one column to the left. The speed setting for the second period will then be shown in the flashing CURRENT PERIOD column.

When the first four-minute segment of the pro- gram is completed, both the CURRENT PERIOD column and the column to the right will flash, a se- ries of tones will sound, and all speed settings will move one column to the left. The LED matrix will then show an “L 2,” indicating that the second 4- minute segment has begun. The incline will then adjust to 4% and the speed will increase to 2.5 mph.

At the beginning of each four-minute segment, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automati- cally increase. The fitness test program will con- tinue in this way until your heart rate reaches 70% of your estimated maximum heart rate, and the current four-minute segment is completed. The fit- ness test program will then be completed, regard- less of how many segments remain.

When the fitness test pro- gram is completed, the letter “C” will appear in

the DISTANCE/LAPS display and a two-minute cool-down period will

begin. The incline will then adjust to 1% and the speed will decrease.

When the cool-down pe- riod is completed, the

walking belt will slow to a stop and your fitness

level will be shown in the TIME display. There are

ten fitness levels—fitness level 10 (FL:10) is the highest. Remember, the fitness test program is in- tended only to indicate your relative fitness level.

Note: The SPEED and INCLINE buttons will not function while the fitness test program is selected. If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the PULSE display. If your pulse is not detected during the last thirty seconds of any four-minute segment (after four minutes, after eight minutes, etc.), the fitness test program will end and the TIME display will show a fitness level of 0 (FL: 0).

The fitness test program cannot be stopped tem- porarily and then restarted. However, the program can be stopped at any time by pressing the STOP button. The TIME display will then show an esti- mated fitness level.
