The fitness program is designed to measure the relative
fitness level you have achieved. For the best results,
the fitness program should be used at a time when your
energy level is high; the fitness program should not be
used if you have already exercised during the day.
The fitness program consists of seven 4-minute periods,
and is followed by a 2-minute cool-down period. The
speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically
increase at the beginning of each 4-minute period.
To use the fitness program, follow the steps below.
Insert the key into the console.

after the program is started.
Press the START button.
When the START button is pressed, the TIME
display will begin
counting up and the
DISTANCE display will
show an ÒL 1Ó (level 1),

begun. The incline of the treadmill will automati-
cally adjust to 2.0% and the walking belt will begin
to move at 1.5 mph. Hold the handrails and step
onto the walking belt.
When the first 4-minute period of the fitness
program is completed, the DISTANCE display will
show an ÒL 2,Ó indicating that the second 4-minute
period has begun. The incline and speed of the
treadmill will then increase. When the second
4-minute period is completed, the DISTANCE
display will show an ÒL 3.Ó The incline will remain
the same, but the speed will then increase. At the
beginning of each 4-minute period, the speed
and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically
increase. The fitness program will continue in this
manner
until your heart rate reaches 70% of your
theoretical maximum heart rate, and the current
4-minute period is completed. The fitness program
will then be completed, regardless of how many
periods remain.
When the fitness program is completed, the letter
ÒCÓ will appear in the
DISTANCE display,
indicating that the
cool-down period has
begun. The TIME
display will count down
from 2 minutes.
