GETTING STARTED

Plug in the power cord.

See HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on
page 9. 

Move the on/off switch to the “on” position.

Locate the on/off switch
on the treadmill near the
power cord. Move the
on/off switch to the “on”
position.

Insert the key into the console.

Find the key
and the clip
and attach
the clip to
the waist-
band of your
clothes.
Next, insert
the key into
the console.

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.

Insert the key into the console again. After a mo-
ment, various displays and indicators on the con-
sole will light. 

Enter your weight.

Although you can use the console without entering
your weight, the console will more accurately
count the calories that you burn if you enter your
weight. To enter your weight, first press the
ENTER AGE/WT button. The words ENTER
WEIGHT and the current weight setting will ap-
pear in the main display. 

Next, press the + and – buttons above the ENTER
AGE/WT button to enter your weight. To enter
your weight quickly, hold the buttons down.

CAUTION:

Before operating the 

console, read the following precautions.

• Do not stand on the walking belt when turn-

ing on the power. 

• Always wear the clip (see the drawing at the

right) while operating the treadmill. 

• Adjust the speed in small increments to

avoid sudden jumps in speed.

• The pulse sensors are not medical devices.

Various factors, including the user's move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids in determining heart
rate trends in general.

• If you have heart problems, or if you are over

60 years of age and have been inactive, do
not use the pulse-driven programs. If you
are taking medication regularly, consult your
physician to find whether the medication will
affect your exercise heart rate.

• To reduce the possibility of electric shock,

keep the console dry. Avoid spilling liquids
on the console and place only a sealed water
bottle in the water bottle holder.
