GO SYSTEM QUICK START
is the fastest way to begin exercising. After the WALK, JOG, or RUN
key is pressed, a MANUAL workout begins immediately at the pre-programmed speed for the
respective key pressed. For accurate caloric expenditure, enter weight using the ENTER WEIGHT
key. The incline level is set to zero by default. Change the level using the INCLINE ARROW key.
Change the speed using the SPEED key, up or down as desired, or use the NUMERIC keypad to
enter a new speed value. The table below lists the preset speed for each key followed a range of
possible alternate speeds for that key.

To change a preset speed, enter any non-FIT TEST workout. Press the SPEED ARROW keys
and adjust the speed value displayed in the MESSAGE CENTER. Then, press and hold down
the WALK, JOG, or RUN key until the console beeps twice, indicating that the new speed has
been programmed. When the WALK, JOG, and RUN keys are used to change speed, press the
desired key momentarily. consequently the MESSAGE CENTER will display the new speed.
NOTE: All changed preset values are preserved when the treadmill is turned off.
NOTE: It is possible to program the WALK, JOG, and RUN speed values per pre-pro-
grammed workouts (MY WORKOUTS) - each workout may have a different speed setting
for the three Go System Quick Start keys.

The
FAT BURN
workout is designed to maintain a user’s heart rate at 65 percent of the theoretical
maximum
†
(HRmax) for optimal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a chest strap or
grasps the Lifepulse
TM
sensors. If the user is not wearing a chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE
WINDOW displays a heart shape, and the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to grasp the
sensors. The console continuously monitors and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level
of the treadmill to reach and maintain the target*. This system eliminates over- and under-training,
and it maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's fat stores for fuel.
NOTE: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can be only changed by the user

†
Defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" as equal to
220 minus an individual’s age.
* Target Heart Rate (THR) is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax). For example, a 40-year-old user's rec-
ommended THR for the FAT BURN workout is 117, or 65 percent of the maximum, so the equation would be (220-
40)*.65 = 117.
