HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
do this, the console displays or other electrical
components may become damaged.
Plug in the power cord (see
page 11). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker on
the treadmill frame near the
power cord. Make sure that
the circuit breaker is in the
“reset” position.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is dis-
played in a store. If the displays light as soon as
you plug in the power cord and switch the reset/off
circuit breaker to the reset position, the demo
mode is turned on. To turn off the demo mode,
hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the
displays remain lit, see HOW TO PERSONALIZE
CONSOLE SETTINGS to the right to turn off the
demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot
rails of the treadmill.
Locate the clip attached
to the key (see the
drawing to the right),
and slide the clip se-
curely onto the waist-
band of your clothes.
Then, insert the key into the console. After a moment,
the displays will light.
IMPORTANT: In an emergency
situation, the key can be pulled from the console,
causing the walking belt to slow to a stop. Test the
clip by carefully taking a few steps backward; if the
key is not pulled from the console, adjust the posi-
tion of the clip.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove the plastic. To pre-
vent damage to the walking platform, wear clean
athletic shoes while using the treadmill. The first
time the treadmill is used, observe the alignment of
the walking belt, and center the walking belt if nec-
essary (see page 26).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of mea-
surement is selected, see HOW TO PERSONALIZE
CONSOLE SETTINGS to the right. For simplicity, all
instructions in this manual refer to miles.
HOW TO PERSONALIZE CONSOLE SETTINGS
The console features a settings mode that allows you
to view the total time and total distance the walking
belt has moved, select a system of measurement for
the console, turn on and turn off the demo mode, se-
lect a personal trainer setting, adjust the volume and
contrast settings of the console, and select an audio
equalizer setting.
Follow the steps below to personalize the console
settings.
To select the settings mode, first remove the key from
the console. Then, hold down the Stop button while
reinserting the key into the console.
When the settings mode is selected, the top of the dis-
play will show the total number of hours that the tread-
mill has been used and the total number of miles or
kilometers that the walking belt has moved.
The display will show the word ENGLISH or METRIC to
indicate which system of measurement is selected. To
change the system of measurement, press the Speed
increase button.
The console features a display demo mode, designed
to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a store. While
the demo mode is turned on, the console will function
normally when you plug in the power cord, switch the
reset/off circuit breaker to the reset position, and insert
the key into the console. However, when you remove
the key, the displays will remain lit, although the but-
tons will not function. Press the Speed decrease button
to select OFF (to turn off the demo mode), PRO-
GRAMS (to display previews of various workouts),
ROAD (to display an animation of a runner on a road),
or VISUAL EQ (to display a visual equalizer).
