4. Change the incline of the treadmill as desired.
To change the incline of the treadmill, press the
Incline increase and decrease buttons. Each time
you press the Incline increase and decrease but-
ton, the incline will change by 0.5%. Note: After you
press an Incline button, it may take a moment for
the treadmill to reach the selected incline setting.
5. Select a display mode and monitor your
progress with the display.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display can
show the following workout information:
• The elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• The date.
• A 1/4-mile (400 meter) track. 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 incline level of the treadmill.
• Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be
shown only when you use the handgrip pulse
sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see
step 6).
• An animation of a runner.
When the manual mode is selected, the console of-
fers three display modes. Press the Display button
repeatedly to select the desired display mode.
Regardless of which display mode you select, the
speed or incline setting will appear in the display for
a few seconds each time you change the setting. In
addition, your heart rate will appear in the display
each time you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the
optional chest pulse sensor.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and
the optional chest pulse sensor at the same
time, the display will not show your heart rate
accurately.
See page 22 for information about the
optional chest pulse sensor.
Before using the
handgrip pulse
sensor, remove
the sheets of
clear plastic from
the metal con-
tacts on the pulse
bar. In addition,
make sure that
your hands are
clean.
To measure your heart rate,
stand on the foot
rails
and hold the pulse bar with your palms on the
metal contacts.
Avoid moving your hands
. When
your pulse is detected, a heart symbol will flash in
the display and then your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, con-
tinue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.
7. 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.
