Insert the key fully into the power switch. 

Inserting the key will
not turn on the dis-
plays. The displays will
turn on when the
ON/RESET button is
pressed or when the
walking belt is started.
Note: If you just 
installed batteries, the displays will already be on.

Reset the speed control.

Slide the speed control to the RESET position.

Note: Each time the walking belt is stopped, the
speed control must be moved to the RESET po-
sition before the walking belt can be restarted. 

Start the walking belt.

After you have moved the speed control to the
RESET position, slowly slide it to the right until the
walking belt begins to move at slow speed.
Carefully step onto the walking belt and begin ex-
ercising. Change the speed of the walking belt as
desired by sliding the speed control. 

To stop the walking belt, step onto the foot rails
and slide the speed control to the RESET position.

Monitor your progress with the two displays.

TIME/DISTANCE dis-
play

ÑThis display

shows the elapsed time
and distance that you
have walked or run, in
miles. Every seven sec-
onds, the display will
change from one number to the other. Arrows in
the display will indicate which number is currently
shown.  

CALS/FAT CALS/
SPEED display

ÑThis

display shows the ap-
proximate numbers of

calories

and 

fat calories

you have burned. (See

FAT BURNING on page 14.) In addition, the dis-
play shows the speed of the walking belt, in miles
per hour. Every seven seconds, the display will
change from one number to the next. Arrows in the
display will indicate which number is currently
shown.    

To reset the displays at
any time, press the
ON/RESET button.  

When you are finished exercising, stop the
walking belt and remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails, stop the walking belt and
remove the key from the console. The displays will
turn off about five minutes after the key is removed.

Note: Any time that the walking belt is stopped
and the ON/RESET button is not pressed for
five minutes, the displays will automatically
turn off in order to conserve the batteries. 

HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE TREADMILL

The incline of the treadmill can be changed by raising
or lowering the back end. 

Before changing the in-

cline, remove the key and unplug the power cord. 

Hold the rear
roller endcap
with both
hands. When
the back end
of the tread-
mill is in the
lowest posi-
tion, the in-
cline is about
10%. Raise
the back end until it clicks into position. (Note: It may be
necessary to shake the treadmill lightly so that it clicks
into position.) The incline will then be about 5%. Raise
the back end again until it clicks into position. The in-
cline will then be about 3%. To lower the back end,
raise it past the highest position and then lower it. 

CAUTION: Before exercising, push on the back of
the treadmill to make sure that the incline legs are
locked in position. Do not place objects under the
treadmill to change the incline; change the incline
only as described above.
