ProForm PFTL14008.0 Treadmill User Manual


 
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 14). 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 25 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 securely
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.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove the plastic. To pre-
vent damage 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 nec-
essary (see page 29).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of
measurement is selected or to change the unit of mea-
surement, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
25. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to
miles.
HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left.
2. Select the manual mode.
Each time the key is in-
serted, the manual mode
will be selected. If you
have selected a workout,
press any of the workout
buttons (Weight Loss,
Aerobic Fitness,
Performance, or Custom) repeatedly until a track
appears in the matrix.
3. Start the walking belt and adjust the speed.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button, the
Speed increase button, or one of the speed but-
tons numbered 1 to 12.
If you press the Start button or the Speed increase
button, the walking belt will begin to move at 1
mph. As you exercise, change the speed of the
walking belt as desired by pressing the Speed in-
crease and decrease buttons. Each time you press
a button, the speed setting will change by 0.1 mph;
if you hold down the button, the speed setting will
change in increments of 0.5 mph. If you press one
of the numbered speed buttons, the walking belt
will gradually change speed until it reaches the se-
lected speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. To
restart the walking belt, press the Start button, the
Speed increase button, or one of the numbered
speed buttons.
4. Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press the
Incline increase and decrease buttons or one of
the incline buttons numbered 0 to 12.
Each time you press the Incline increase or de-
crease button, the incline will change by 0.5%. If
you press one of the numbered incline buttons, the
incline will gradually change until it reaches the se-
lected incline setting. Note: After you press the but-
tons, it may take a moment for the treadmill to
reach the selected incline setting.
