NordicTrack 4500 R Treadmill User Manual


 
Insert the key fully into the console.
See GETTING STARTED on page 11.
Select the desired preset program.
The console offers eleven preset programs—
three
programs that focus on weight loss, five programs
designed for aerobic exercise, and three pro-
grams for high-performance conditioning.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be
selected. To select one of the preset programs,
first press the Select Goal button repeatedly until
the words “WEIGHT LOSS,” “AEROBIC,” or
“PERFORMANCE” appear in the main display.
Next, press the Select Course button repeatedly
to select one of the weight loss, aerobic, or perfor-
mance programs. For example, if the words
“WEIGHT LOSS” appear in the main display, you
can select the 20-minute Pyramid, 35-minute
Pyramid, or 20-minute Fat Burn program.
Three seconds after a preset program is selected,
the name of the selected program, the maximum
speed setting for the program, the maximum in-
cline setting for the program, and the total program
time will begin to scroll across the main display.
The program dis-
play will show the
speed settings of
the program you
have selected.
Note: If you have
selected a program with more than twelve seg
-
ments, the display will show only the first twelve
speed settings.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program.
Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time seg-
ments of different lengths. (The main display
shows both the time remaining in the program and
the time remaining in the current segment of the
program.) One speed setting and one incline set-
ting are programmed for each segment. (The
same speed setting and/or incline setting may be
programmed for
consecutive seg-
ments.) The speed
setting for the first
s
egment is shown
in the flashing
Current Segment
column of the pro-
gram display. (The incline settings are not shown
in the program display.) The speed settings for the
next several segments are shown in the columns
to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash and a
series of tones will sound. In addition, if the speed
and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change,
the speed setting and/or incline setting will flash in
the main display to alert you. When the first seg-
ment is completed,
all speed settings will move
one column to the left. The speed setting for the
second segment will then be shown in the flashing
Current Segment column and the treadmill will au-
tomatically adjust to the speed and incline settings
for the second segment. Note: If all of the indica-
tors in the Current Segment column are lit after the
speed settings have moved to the left, the speed
settings will move downward so that only the high
-
est indicators appear in the program display.
If
some of the indicators in the Current Segment col-
umn are not lit when the speed settings move to
the left again, the speed settings will move back
up.
The program will continue in this way until the
speed setting for the last
segment
is shown in the
Current Segment column and no time remains in
the program. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.

If the speed or incline settings are too high or too
low, you can manually override the settings at any
time by pressing the Speed or Incline buttons on
the console. However,
when the next “chirp” is
heard, the speed and/or incline will change
to
the next settings of the CD or video program.
To stop the walking belt at any time, press the
Stop button on the console. The time will begin to
flash in the main display. To restart the program,
press the Start button or the Speed + button. After
a moment, the walking belt will begin to move.
When the next “chirp” is heard, the speed and
incline will change to the next settings of the
CD or video program
.
When the CD or video program is completed, the
walking belt will stop and the time will begin to flash
in the main display. Note: To use another CD or
video program, press the Stop button or remove
the key and go to step 1 on page 22.
Note: If the speed or incline of the treadmill
does not change when a “chirp” is heard:
• Make sure that the iFIT.com indicator is lit and
that the time is not flashing in the main dis-
play. If the time is flashing, press the Start
button or the Speed + button on the console.
• Adjust the volume of your CD player or VCR.
If the volume is too high or too low, the con-
sole may not detect the program signals.
• Make sure that the audio cable is properly
connected, that it is fully plugged in, and that
it is not wrapped around a power cord.
If you are using your portable CD player and
the CD skips, set the CD player on the floor or
another flat surface instead of on the console.
Follow your progress with the displays.
