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 22 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 at the
right), and slide the clip se-
curely 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.
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either kilometers or miles. To find which unit of mea-
surement is selected or to change the unit of measure-
ment, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page 22.
For simplicity, all instructions in this manual refer
to kilometers.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the console, remove the plastic. To prevent dam-
age 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 neces-
sary (see page 28).
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left.

Km/H. As you exercise, change the speed of the
walking belt as desired by pressing the Speed in-

Each time you press one of the buttons, the speed
setting will change by 0.1 Km/H; if you hold down
the button, the speed setting will change in incre-
ments of 0.5 Km/H. If you press one of the num-
bered 1 Step Speed buttons, the walking belt will
gradually increase in speed until it reaches the se-
lected speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To
