HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
22.
Note: It may take a minute for the console
to be ready for use.
2. Select the main menu.
When you turn
on the power,
the main menu
will appear
after the
console boots
up. Touch the
home button in
the lower-left
corner of the screen (not shown here) to return to
the main menu at any time.
3. Start the walking belt and adjust the speed.
Touch the Start button on the screen or press the
Start button on the console to start the walking
belt. You can also press the Manual button on the
console, and then touch the Resume button on
the screen. The walking belt will begin to move
at 1 mph.
Note: The display will darken for a
moment while it loads workout information.
This is normal.
As you exercise, change the speed of the walking
belt as desired by pressing the Speed increase
and decrease buttons. Each time you press one of
the buttons, the speed setting will change by 0.1
mph; if you hold down the button, the speed setting
will change in increments of 0.5 mph.
If you press one of the numbered speed buttons,
the walking belt will gradually change speed until it
reaches the selected speed setting.
To select a speed setting that includes a decimal—
such as 3.5 mph—press two numbered buttons in
succession. For example, to select a speed setting
of 3.5 mph, press the 3 button and then immedi-
ately press the 5 button. Note: This will not function
if the console is set to metric units.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To
restart the walking belt, press the Start button.
4.
Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press the
Incline increase and decrease buttons or one of the
numbered incline buttons. Each time you press one
of the buttons, the incline will gradually change until
it reaches the selected incline setting.
Note: The first time you adjust the incline, you must
first calibrate the incline system (see step 4 on
page 33).
5. Monitor your progress with the display.
The console
offers sev-
eral display
modes. The
display mode
that you select
will determine
which workout
information is
shown. To select the desired display mode, simply
flick or slide the screen. You can also view addi-
tional information by touching the red boxes on the
screen.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can
show the following workout information:
• The incline level of the treadmill
• The elapsed time
•
The time left (Note: The manual mode does not
have a time left countdown.)
•
The approximate number of calories you have
burned
•
The approximate number of calories you are
burning per hour
• The distance that you have walked or run
• The number of vertical feet you have climbed
