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. Switch the cir-
cuit breaker to the reset po-
sition.
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 THE INFORMATION MODE
on page 16 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Find the
clip attached to the key (see the drawing on page 12)
and slide the clip onto the waistband of your clothes.
Then, insert the key into the console. When the key is
inserted, 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 position of the clip.
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER above.
2. Select the manual mode.
When the key is in-
serted, the manual
mode will be selected. If
a program has been se-
lected, press the
Classic Workouts but-
ton repeatedly until a track appears in the display.
3. Start the walking belt.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button, the
Speed increase button, or one of the Speed but-
tons numbered 2 through 10.
If you press the Start button or the Speed increase
button, the walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph.
As you exercise, change the speed of the walking
belt as desired by pressing the Speed increase
and decrease buttons. Each time you press a but-
ton, the speed setting will change by 0.1 mph; if
you hold down a button, the speed setting will
change in increments of 0.5 mph.
If you press one of the nine numbered Speed but-
tons, the walking belt will gradually increase in
speed until it reaches the selected speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To restart
the walking belt, press the Start button, the Speed
increase button, or one of the nine numbered
Speed buttons.
4. Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of
the treadmill, press the
Incline increase and de-
crease buttons or one of
the Incline buttons num-
bered 0 to 10. Each time
you press the Incline increase or decrease button,
the incline setting will change by 0.5%; if you hold
down a button, the incline setting will change
quickly. If you press one of the numbered Incline
buttons, the treadmill will adjust to the selected in-
cline setting. Note: After you press the buttons, it
may take a moment for the treadmill to reach the
selected incline setting.
5. Follow your progress with the display.
When the manual mode is selected, a track repre-
senting 1/4 mile (400 meters) will appear in the
upper right corner of the display. As you walk or run
on the treadmill, the indicators around the track will
appear in succession until the entire track appears.
The track will then disappear and the indicators will
again begin to appear in succession.
