HOW TO USE A STEP PROGRAM
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12.
2. Select a step program.
To select a step pro-
gram, press the 10,000
Steps Program button
or the Goal increase
button; if you press the
10,000 Steps Program
button, a goal of 10,000 steps will appear in the
upper display. Note: If the walking belt is moving
when you press the 10,000 Steps Program button,
the walking belt will slow to a stop.
Depending on your fitness level, you may desire to
walk fewer than or more than 10,000 steps. To
change the goal, press the Goal increase and de-
crease buttons. Each time you press a button, the
goal will change by 500 steps. Note: The goal can
be changed either before or after the program is
started.
Note: To find an appropriate starting goal, walk on
the treadmill with the manual mode selected (see
page 13), and note the number of steps that you
walk during your workout. Then, round that number
up to the nearest 500 steps. This can be a starting
goal. As your fitness level improves, you can in-
crease the goal by 500 steps every few weeks.
IM-
PORTANT: Always exercise at an intensity level
and for a length of time that is comfortable for
you.

the treadmill as desired by pressing the Speed and
Incline buttons.
During the program, the upper left corner of the
display will show the number of steps still to be
taken (unless you have changed the display by
pressing the Display button). When only ten steps
remain, the upper left corner of the display will
flash and a tone will sound repeatedly until you
reach the goal. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.
To stop the program temporarily, press the Stop
button. The time will begin to flash in the display.
To restart the program, press the Start button or
