OW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
d
o this, the console displays or other electrical
components may become damaged.
Plug in the power cord
(see page 13). Next, lo-
cate the reset/off circuit
breaker on the treadmill
frame near the power
cord. Switch the circuit
breaker to the reset posi-
tion.
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. When the key is
inserted, 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 23).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of mea-
surement is selected, see THE INFORMATION MODE
on page 19
.
For simplicity, all instructions in this man-
ual refer to miles.
