2.2 DISPLAY CONSOLE DESCRIPTIONS
This section lists and describes the functions for the keys and display windows on the Life
Fitness stairclimber console. See Section 4, titled The Workouts, for detailed information on
using the console to set up workouts.
A START: Press this key to activate the console for programming a new workout. The activated
console lights up and displays “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START”. If no key
is pressed, the console shuts down again.
NOTE: The AutoStart feature activates the console when the user steps on the pedals.
B ENTER: Press this key after entering each value, such as weight or workout time, when
prompted by console display messages.
C NUMERIC keypad: Use these keys to enter values, such as length of workout, weight, age,
target heart rate, and intensity level. While a workout is in progress, numeric keys can be
used to set new intensity levels or change the target heart rate in the FAT BURN, CARDIO,
HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, and EXTREME HEART RATE workouts.
The ARROW keys have a similar function, except that they change workout parameters by
single increments.
D ARROW keys: A pair of UP and DOWN arrows is located on either side of the TIME/LEVEL
window. Use either set of arrows, when setting up a workout, to change workout parameters
displayed on the console, such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate, and
intensity level. During a workout, pressing the ARROWS on the right (LEVEL) side of display
changes the target heart rate for FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE
INTERVAL, and EXTREME HEART RATE workouts or the intensity level for other workouts.
Pressing the ARROWS on the left (TIME) side increases or decreases the workout duration.
E QUICK START: Press this key to begin a manual workout immediately, without having to
select a workout. Once the workout is in progress, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC
keypad to change the intensity level or workout duration as desired.
F CLEAR: Press this key, when programming a workout, to clear incorrect data, such as
weight or age, before pressing the ENTER key. Pressing Clear during a workout stops it
immediately, at which point, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a summary of the workout,
including total time elapsed, total calories burned, and total floors climbed. Pressing CLEAR
a second time causes the Message Center to prompt the user for a new workout setup.
G FAT BURN: Press this key to select the FAT BURN workout, which is a low-intensity work-
out for burning fat.
H CARDIO: Press this key to select the CARDIO workout, which is a higher intensity workout
for more fit users, emphasizing cardiovascular benefits and maximum fat burning.
I RANDOM: Press this key to select the RANDOM workout, which is a workout of constantly
changing intensity levels that occur in no regular pattern or progression.
J MANUAL: Press this key to select the MANUAL workout, in which the intensity level remains
the same unless it is manually changed.
