HOW TO USE A CUSTOM PROGRAM
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 10.
Select a custom program.
To select a custom program, press the Custom
Programs button repeatedly until “P-9,” “P-10,” “P-
11,” or “P-12” appears in the right display.
When a custom program is selected, the left dis-
play will flash the maximum incline setting of the
program for a few seconds, and the right display
will flash the maximum speed setting. The left dis-
play will then show how long the program will last.
In addition, the matrix in the left display will show
the first several speed settings of the program.
Note: If only three columns of indicators ap-
pear, see HOW TO CREATE A CUSTOM PRO-
GRAM on page 15.
Press the Start button or the Speed increase
button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings that you programmed previously.
Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several one-minute
segments. One speed setting and one incline set-
ting are programmed
for each segment. The
speed setting for the
first segment will be
shown in the flashing
Current Segment col-
umn of the matrix. (The
incline settings are not
shown in the matrix.)
The speed settings for
the next several segments will be shown in the
columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a se-
ries of tones will sound, the speed setting and the
incline setting will flash in the displays, and
all
speed settings will move one column to the left.
The speed setting for the second segment will then
be shown in the flashing Current Segment column
and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the
second speed and incline settings that you pro-
grammed previously.
The program will continue until the speed setting
for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column and the last segment ends. The
walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If desired, you can redefine the program while
using it.
To change the speed or incline setting
during the current segment,
simply press the
Speed or Incline buttons. When the current segment
ends, the new setting will be saved in memory.
To
increase the length of the program,
first wait until
the program ends. Then, press the Start button, and
program speed and incline settings for as many ad-
ditional segments as desired. When you have
added as many segments as desired, press the
Stop button twice.
To decrease the length of the
program,
press the Stop button twice at any time
before the program ends.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. The time will begin to flash in the left dis-
play. To restart the program, press the Start but-
ton or the Speed increase button.
Follow your progress with the displays.
