4. Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press the
I
ncline increase and decrease buttons or one of
the numbered Quick Incline buttons. Each time you
p
ress the Incline increase or decrease button, the

you press the buttons, it may take a moment for
the treadmill to reach the selected incline setting.
5. Follow your progress with the displays.
When the
manual
mode is se-
lected, the
upper display
will show a
track that
represents 1/4 mile (400 meters). As you walk or
run, indicators will appear in succession around the
track until the entire track appears. The track will
then disappear and the indicators will again begin
to appear in succession.
The left side of the lower
display will show the
elapsed time, the dis-
tance that you have
walked or run, and the in-
cline level of the treadmill.
Press the Display button to view the time or the dis-
tance. Note: When a preset workout is selected,
the display will show the time remaining in the
workout instead of the elapsed time.
The right side of the
lower display will show
the approximate number
of calories you have
burned, the speed of the
walking belt, and your
pace in minutes per mile. Press the Display button
to view the speed or the pace. The right side of the
display will also show your heart rate when you use
the handgrip pulse sensor.
To reset the display, press the Stop button, remove
the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using the
h
andgrip pulse
sensor, remove
t
he sheets of
clear plastic from
the metal con-
tacts. In addition,
make sure that
your hands are
clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and place your hands on the metal contacts—
avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is de-
tected, the heart symbol in the display will begin to
flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes
will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, con-
tinue to hold the contacts for at least 15 sec-
onds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan features high, low, and auto speed set-
tings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a
fan speed or to turn off the fan. When the auto
mode is selected, the speed of the fan will auto-
matically increase and decrease as the speed of
the walking belt increases and decreases. Note: If
the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the
fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes.
The auto mode can only be selected while the
walking belt is moving.
8. When you are finished exercising, remove the
key from the console.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting
or you may damage the treadmill when you fold
it to the storage position. Next, remove the key
from the console and put it in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, switch
the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position and
unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do
not do this, the treadmillʼs electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
