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 you turn on the power. If you do
not do this, you may damage the console displays
or other electrical components.
Plug in the power cord (see
page 17). Next, locate the
power switch (I) on the
treadmill frame near the
power cord. Make sure that
the switch is in the reset
position.
IMPORTANT: The console may feature a 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 press the power
switch into 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 SETTINGS MODE on page 23 to
turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the
foot rails of the tread-
mill. Find the clip (J)
attached to the key
(K), and slide the clip
onto the waistband of
your clothes. Then,
insert the key into
the console. After a
moment, the displays
will light. IMPORTANT: In an emergency, the key can
be pulled from the console, causing the walking
belt to slow to a stop. Test the clip by carefully tak-
ing a few steps backward; if the key is not pulled
from the console, adjust the position of the clip.
IMPORTANT: Before you use the treadmill, take the
following steps to ensure that the console shows
the correct incline level of the treadmill. First,
press the Incline increase button once. Next, press
either the Incline decrease button or the lowest
numbered Incline button to set the treadmill to its
lowest setting. When the frame stops moving, the
treadmill is ready for use.
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left.
2.
Select the manual mode.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be
selected. If you have selected a workout, press the
Manual button. Only zeros should appear in the
display.
3.
Start the walking belt.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button or
one of the numbered Speed buttons.
If you press the Start button, the walking belt will
begin to move at 1 mph. As you exercise, change
the speed of the walking belt as desired by press-
ing the Speed increase and decrease buttons.
Each time you press one of the buttons, the speed
setting will change by 0.1 mph; if you hold down
the button, the speed setting will change in incre-
ments of 0.5 mph.
If you press one of the numbered Speed buttons,
the walking belt will gradually change speed until
it reaches the selected speed setting. To select a
speed setting that includes a decimal—such as
3.5 mph—press two numbered buttons in suc-
cession. For example, to select a speed setting of
3.5 mph, press the 3 button and then immediately
press the 5 button. Note: This feature will not func-
tion when the console is set to metric units.
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 or one of
the numbered Speed buttons.
