Follow the steps below to operate the console.

Insert the key fully into the power switch. 

Inserting the key will
not turn on the dis-
plays. The displays will
turn on when the
ON/RESET button is
pressed or when the
walking belt is started.
Note: If you just 
installed batteries, the displays will already be on.

Reset the speed control and start the walking
belt.

Slide the speed control fully to the left to the reset
position. Note: Each time the walking belt is
stopped, the speed control must be moved to
the reset position before the walking belt can
be restarted. 

Next, slowly slide the speed control to the right
until the walking belt begins to move at slow
speed. Carefully step onto the walking belt and
begin exercising. Change the speed of the walking
belt as desired by sliding the speed control.

To stop the walking belt, step onto the foot rails
and slide the speed control to the reset position.

Note: During the first few minutes that the treadmill
is used, inspect the alignment of the walking belt
and align it if necessary (see page 13).

Adjust the incline of the treadmill as desired.

To change the incline of
the treadmill, press the
increase or decrease
button until the desired
incline level is reached.

Follow your progress with the LED track and
the displays.

The LED Track—The
track in the center of the
console represents a
distance of 1/4 mile. As
you exercise, the indica-
tors around the track will
light in sequence until
you have completed 1/4
mile. A new lap will then
begin. 

TIME/DISTANCE/LAPS
display
—This display
shows the elapsed time
and the distance that
you have walked or run,
in miles. The display
also shows the number
of laps you have completed. Every few seconds,
the display will change from one number to the
next, as shown by the arrows in the display.  

CALORIES/FAT CALS/
SPEED display
—This
display shows the ap-
proximate numbers of
calories and fat calories
you have burned (see
FAT BURNING on page
14). In addition, the display shows the speed of
the walking belt, in miles per hour. Every seven
seconds, the display will change from one number
to the next, as shown by the arrows in the display. 

To reset the displays,
press the ON/RESET
button. 

When you are finished exercising, stop the
walking belt and remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails, slide the speed control to
the reset position, and remove the key. The dis-
plays will turn off a few minutes after the key is re-
moved. Note: Any time that the walking belt is
stopped and the ON/RESET button is not
pressed for a few minutes, the displays will au-
tomatically turn off to conserve the batteries.
