HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
Plug in the power cord
(see page 9). Next, locate
the on/off switch on the
treadmill frame near the
power cord. Make sure that
the switch is in the “on” po-
sition.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Find the
clip attached to the key (see the drawing on page 10),
and slide the clip onto the waistband of your clothes.
Then, insert the key into the console. After a moment,
the matrix and the display 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.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of
the console, remove the plastic. To prevent damage to
the walking platform, always wear clean 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 necessary (see page 25).
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER above.
Select the manual mode.
When the key is in-
serted, the manual
mode will be selected.
If a program or the
iFIT.com mode has
been selected, reselect
the manual mode by
removing the key and then reinserting it.
Start the walking belt.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button or
the Speed increase button.
If the Start button or the Speed increase button is
pressed, 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 in-
crease and decrease buttons. Each time a button
is pressed, the speed setting will change by 0.1
mph; if a button is held down, the speed setting
will change in increments of 0.5 mph. To change
the speed setting quickly, press the Quick Speed
buttons.
Note: After the buttons are pressed, it may take a
moment for the walking belt to reach the selected
speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To
restart the walking belt, press the Start button or
the Speed increase button.
Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press the
Incline increase and decrease buttons. Each time
a button is pressed, the incline will change by
0.5%. To change the incline setting quickly, press
the Quick Incline buttons.
Note: After the buttons are pressed, it may take a
moment for the treadmill to reach the selected in-
cline setting.
Follow your progress with the matrix and the
display.
When the manual mode
or the iFIT.com mode is
selected, the matrix will
show a 1/4-mile (400-
meter) track. As you
walk or run on the tread-
mill, the segments of the
track will appear in succession until the entire track
appears. The track will then disappear and the
segments will again begin to appear in succession.
The lower left corner of
the display will show the
approximate number of
calories you have
burned and the incline
level of the treadmill.
When you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the
chest pulse sensor, the lower left corner of the dis-
play will also show your heart rate.
