The monitor display offers six modes that provide instant exercise feedback:

¥TimeÑThis mode shows the length of time you have exercised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or longer, the time mode will pause.
¥Distance (DIST)ÑThis mode shows the total number of miles you have walked or run, up to 999. The display will then reset to zero and con- tinue counting.
¥Fat Calories (FAT CALS)ÑThis mode shows the approximate number of fat calories you have burned. (See FAT BURNING on page 14.)
¥Calories (CALS)ÑThis mode shows the approxi- mate number of calories you have burned.
¥ScanÑThis mode displays the other five modes, for five seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
When the power is
turned on, the Scan mode will be select- ed. One mode indica- tor will appear by the
word Òscan,Ó and

HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE TREADMILL
To vary the intensity of your exercise, the incline of the treadmill can be changed. There are three different incline levels. Before changing the incline, remove the key and unplug the power cord.
To change the incline of the treadmill, first hold the rear roller endcap with one hand and raise the back of the treadmill a few inches. Using your other hand, rotate the incline leg to one of the three incline posi- tions. The inset draw-
ing at the right shows the incline leg rotated
to the Òmax fat burnÓ
position. Lower the treadmill, making sure that the incline leg is resting flat on the floor.
