HOW TO USE PRESET PROGRAMS
Insert the key into the console.
Refer to GETTING STARTED on page 14.
Select one of the six preset programs.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will
automatically be selected. To select one of the six
preset programs, press the MODE button repeat-
edly until the words CARDIO WALK 1, CARDIO
WALK 2, ENDURANCE 1, ENDURANCE 2, FIN-
ISH LINE 1, or FINISH LINE 2 appear in the main
display. Note: CARDIO WALK 1 is a level one
(low-intensity) walking program; CARDIO WALK 2
is a level one running program; ENDURANCE 1 is
a level two (medium-intensity) walking program;
ENDURANCE 2 is a level two running program;
FINISH LINE 1 is a level three (high-intensity)
walking program; and FINISH LINE 2 is a level
three running program.
When a preset program is selected, the maximum
incline setting for the program will flash at the left
end of the main display and the maximum speed
setting will flash at the right end of the main dis-
play. After three seconds, the name of the se-
lected program, the level of the program, and the
total program time will begin to scroll across the
main display. If desired, you can change the maxi-
mum incline setting or the maximum speed setting
by pressing the INCLINE or SPEED buttons. If
you increase either setting, the difficulty level of
the entire program will increase; if you decrease
either setting, the difficulty level of the entire pro-
gram will decrease.
When a preset pro-
gram is selected, the
matrix will show a
graph representing
the speed settings for
the program.
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 for the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time segments
of different lengths. The main display will show
both the time remaining in the program and the
time remaining in the current segment of the pro-
gram. One speed set-
ting and one incline
setting are pro-
grammed for each
segment. The speed
setting for the first
segment is shown in
the flashing CUR-
RENT SEGMENT
column of the matrix. (The incline settings are not
shown in the matrix.) The speed settings for up-
coming 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 SEG-
MENT column and the column to the right will
flash, a series of tones will sound, and all speed
settings will move one column to the left. The
speed setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the CURRENT SEGMENT column and
the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed
and incline settings for the second segment. The
program will continue until the speed setting for
the final segment is shown in the CURRENT
SEGMENT column and no time remains in the
program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
Note: Each time a segment ends and the speed
settings move to the left, if all of the indicators in
the CURRENT SEGMENT column are lit, the
speed settings may move downward so that only
the highest indicators in the columns appear in the
matrix. When the speed settings move to the left
again, if not all of the indicators in the CURRENT
SEGMENT column are lit, the speed settings will
move back up.
Note: You can manually override the speed or in-
cline setting for the current segment by pressing
the SPEED or INCLINE buttons. Every few times
a SPEED button is pressed, an additional indica-
tor will light or darken in the CURRENT SEGMENT
column. (If any of the columns to the right of the
CURRENT SEGMENT column have the same
number of lit indicators as the CURRENT SEG-
MENT column, an additional indicator may light or
darken in those columns as well.) Important:
When the next segment of the program begins,
the treadmill will automatically adjust to the
speed and incline settings for the next segment.
