To set up one of these tests, press the FIT TEST key repeatedly, until the MESSAGE CENTER
displays the name of the desired test. Then, press ENTER. If the selected test is either the
NAVY or MARINES test, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a question as to whether the test is
taking place below a certain altitude. For the NAVY test, the altitude is 5,000 feet above sea
level; and for the MARINES test, the altitude is 4,500 feet above sea level. Using the ARROW
KEYS, select the answer YES or NO by toggling between these words displayed in the MES-
SAGE CENTER. Press Enter.
At the MESSAGE CENTER prompts, enter the weight, age, gender, and desired speed, using the
ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad. Press ENTER after each entry. Then, begin the workout.
To ensure an accurate test score, do not change these entries once the workout begins.
After the distance goal is reached, the workout program goes into a cool-down. The duration of
this phase depends on the amount of time taken to complete the test. For less than five minutes,
the cool-down is one minute. For five to 15 minutes, the cool-down is three minutes. For longer
times, the cool-down is five minutes. The user can abort the cool-down by pressing the STOP but-
ton or the CLEAR key. After the cool-down is aborted or completed, the MESSAGE CENTER dis-
plays the finishing time and a point score for the Army and Marines tests, or a qualititative score,
such as EXCELLENT, for the Navy test.

WORKOUTS ON A LIFE FITNESS TREADMILL
SELECTING A LEVEL
The steps for setting up a HILL or RANDOM workout include selecting a level. The word level
refers to a range of incline percentages. The treadmill features 20 levels, with Level 1 having the
lowest average incline grade and Level 20 having the highest.
LEVEL % Incline LEVEL % Incline
1 0.0 - 1.5 11 2.0 - 8.5
2 0.0 - 2.2 12 3.0 - 9.2
3 0.0 - 2.9 13 3.5 - 9.9
4 0.0 - 3.6 14 5.0 - 10.6
5 0.0 - 4.3 15 5.5 - 11.3
6 0.0 - 5.0 16 6.5 - 12.0
7 0.0 - 5.7 17 7.0 - 12.7
8 0.0 - 6.4 18 8.0 - 13.4
9 0.5 - 7.1 19 8.7 - 14.1
10 1.5 - 7.8 20 9.0 - 15.0
Within each level are seven incline percentages, or hills. During a workout, each hill appears in
the WORKOUT PROFILE window as rows of light stacked in a column. The number of lit rows
within a column corresponds to an incline percentage. For example, in Level 5, the lowest
incline is 0.0 percent and is represented as one lit row. The highest incline, 4.3 percent, is repre-
sented by a column with all seven rows lit.
