Note: For the treadmill to count your steps accu-
rately, correct walking form is important. As you
walk, try to maintain a steady pace, a uniform
stride length, and a consistent position on the
treadmill. Lighter users may also find it helpful to
reduce the incline of the treadmill or to increase
the speed of the walking belt.
IMPORTANT:
Always exercise at a pace that is comfortable
for you.
To reset the display, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of clear
plastic from the
metal contacts.
In addition,
make sure that
your hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate,
stand on the foot
rails
and place your hands on the metal con-
tacts—
avoid moving your hands
. When your
pulse is detected, the heart symbol in the display
will begin to flash each time your heart beats, one
or two dashes will appear, and then your heart
rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart
rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for
at least 15 seconds.
Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at low speed, press the Fan
button; the word “Low” will appear in the display.
To turn on the fan at high speed, press the button
a second time; the word “High” will appear in the
display. To turn off the fan, press the button a third
time; the word “Off” will appear in the display.
Note: If the fan is left on when the walking belt is
stopped, the fan will automatically turn off after a
few minutes.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
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 setting
when the treadmill is folded to the storage posi-
tion, or the treadmill will be damaged.
Next, re-
move the key from the console and put it in a se-
cure place.
Note: If the display remains lit after
the key is removed, the console is in the
“demo” mode. See page 19 and turn off the
demo mode.
When you are finished using the treadmill,
switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off”
position and unplug the power cord.
