HINTS AND TIPS FOR GETTING STARTED

The following hints and tips will assist in training your users to maximize the fitness benefits of your STAR TRAC E SERIES TREADMILL.

Walk or run at a rate that feels comfortable and most natural, yet is sufficiently vigorous to get a good cardio workout.

Try different walking or running rhythms. In manual operation, adjust your pace from low speed to high speed, then back to low. As you become more comfortable with your treadmill, try going faster or using the preset programs.

Watch the Graphic Display to anticipate terrain changes. When you use the preset programs, the display shows changes in terrain as tall or short columns. The display also notifies you of incline changes with a series of beeps and a flashing display ele- ment.
