HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
c
old temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
d
o this, you may damage the console displays or
other electrical components.
Plug in the power cord (see
page 13). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker on
the treadmill frame near the
power cord. Make sure that
the circuit breaker is in the
“reset” position.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is dis-
played in a store. If the displays light as soon as
you plug in the power cord and switch the reset/off
circuit breaker to the reset position, the demo
mode is turned on. To turn off the demo mode,
hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the
displays remain lit, see THE INFORMATION MODE
on page 21 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Locate the
clip attached to the key (see the drawing on page 14),
and slide the clip securely onto the waistband of your
clothes. Then, insert the key into the console. After a
moment, the displays 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.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove the plastic. To pre-
vent damage to the walking platform, wear clean
athletic 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 27).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of
measurement is selected or to change the unit of mea-
surement, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
21. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to
miles.
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left.
2. Select the manual mode.
Each time the key is in-
serted, the manual mode
will be selected. If you
have selected a workout,
press any of the preset
workout buttons (Weight
Loss, Aerobic, Performance, or Endurance) repeat-
edly until a track appears in the matrix.
3. Start the walking belt and adjust the speed.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button,
one of the Speed increase buttons, or one of the
speed buttons numbered 1 to 12.
If you press the Start button or one of the Speed
increase buttons, 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 increase and decrease buttons on the
console or in the right handrail. 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 but-
tons, the walking belt will gradually change speed
until it reaches the selected speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To
restart the walking belt, press the Start button, one
of the Speed increase buttons, or one of the num-
bered speed buttons.
4. Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press one of
the Incline increase or decrease buttons or one of
the incline buttons numbered 0 to 10.
Each time you press one of the Incline increase or
decrease buttons on the console or in the left
handrail or one of the numbered incline buttons,
the incline will gradually change until it reaches the
