The console offers both manual and pro- gram modes, and features four independent LCD displays to provide you with continuous exercise feedback. Please read these instructions carefully before operating the console. Note: if there is a sheet of clear protec- tive plastic on the face of the console, remove it before operating the console.

Step onto the foot rails of the treadmill. Locate the clip attached to the safety key, and slide the clip onto the waistband of your clothing.

,& CAUTION: Do not stand on the walking belt when turning on the power. Always wear the clip

while using the treadmill.

Insert the safety key into the console. The four LCD displays will appear and all indicators will light in sequence. When only the manual and distance indicators are lit, the console will be ready for operation. Note: The first time that the safety key is inserted after the power cord is plugged in, the treadmill will automatically rise to the maxi- mum incline level and then return to the minimum incline level. This will calibrate the incline system.

MANUAL MODE OPERATION

When the power is turned on, the console will be in the manual mode. For your safety, the walking belt will be stationary each tir_e the power is turned on. To start the walking belt, first slide the manual speed control to the "reset" position. Then, slide the control slowly to the right until the walking belt begins to move at slow speed. Note: Each time the walking belt is started, the control must first be moved to the "reset" position. The speed range of the walking belt is about 0.5 to 10 miles per hour.

CAUTION: After the manual speed control is moved, there will be a pause before the walking belt begins to move. Adjust the speed slowly until you are familiar with the operation of the treadmill.

Hold the handrail and step carefully onto the walking belt. Change the speed of the walking belt as desired by moving the manual speed control. To stop the walking belt, move the control to the "reset" position.

To vary the intensity of your exercise, the incline of the treadmill can be changed by pressing the INCLINE but- tons. Simply hold down one of the buttons until the desired incline level is reached. The incline range of the tread-

8mill is 2% to 12%.
