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 numbered incline
buttons. Each time you
press the Incline increase or decrease button, the
incline will change by 0.5 percent. If you press one
of the numbered incline buttons, the treadmill will
adjust to the selected incline setting. Note: After
you press the buttons, it may take a moment for
the treadmill to reach the selected incline setting.
5. Monitor your progress with the matrix and the
displays.
The matrix
—When the
manual mode is se-
lected, the display will
show a track that repre-
sents 1/4 mile (402 me-
ters). As you exercise,
the indicators around
the track will light in succession until the entire
track is lit. The track will then darken and the indi-
cators will again begin to light in succession.
Time display
—When
the manual mode is se-
lected, this display will
show the elapsed time.
When a workout is se-
lected, the display will
show the time remaining in the workout rather than
the elapsed time.
Distance/Incline dis-
play
—This display
shows the distance that
you have walked or run.
This display will also
show the incline setting
for several seconds, each time the incline changes.
Calories/Pulse
display
—This display
shows the approximate
number of calories you
have burned. The dis-
play will also show your
heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sen-
sor.
Speed display
—This
display shows the speed
of the walking belt.
To reset the displays, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and
the optional chest pulse sensor at the same
time, the console will not display your heart
rate accurately.
For information on the optional
chest pulse sensor, see page 19.
Before using the
handgrip pulse
sensor, first re-
move the sheets
of plastic from the
metal contacts. In
addition, make
sure that your
hands are clean.
To use the handgrip pulse sensor,
stand on the
foot rails
and hold the metal contacts for approxi-
mately 10 seconds.
Avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will
be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate
reading, continue to hold the contacts for
about 15 seconds.
7. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest set-
ting or you may damage the treadmill when you
fold it to the storage position.
Next, remove the
key from the console and put it in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the off position and
unplug the power cord.
IMPORTANT: If you do
not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
