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. Switch the cir-
cuit breaker to the reset po-
sition.
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 19 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Find the
clip attached to the key (see the drawing on page 14)
and slide the clip 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 posi-
tion of the clip.
IMPORTANT: If there are sheets 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 you
use the treadmill, observe the alignment of the
walking belt, and center the walking belt if neces-
sary (see page 24).
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
19. Note: 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.
When the key

the manual
mode will be
selected. If
you have se-
lected a work-

peatedly until a track appears in the display.
3. Start the walking belt.
To start the walking belt, press the Start button, the

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 increase
and decrease buttons. Each time you press a but-
ton, the speed setting will change by 0.1 mph; if
you hold down a button, the speed setting will
change in increments of 0.5 mph.
If you press one of the numbered Quick Speed but-
tons, the walking belt will gradually change speed
until it reaches the selected speed setting.
To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To restart
