 HOW 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 
do this, you may damage the console displays or 
other electrical components.

Plug in the power cord 
(see page 19). Next, 
locate the power switch on 
the treadmill frame near 
the power cord. Press the 
power switch into the reset 
position. 

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 press the power 
switch into 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 HOW TO CHANGE CONSOLE 
SETTINGS on page 27 to turn off the demo 
mode. 

Next, stand on the 
foot rails of the 
treadmill. Find the 
clip attached to the 
key and slide the 
clip onto the waist-
band of your clothes. 
Then, insert the 
key into the console. After a moment, the displays will 
light. 

IMPORTANT: In an emergency, 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.

 HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

1.    Insert the key into the console. 

 See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER at the left.

2.   Select the manual mode.

Press the Manual Control button on the console. If 
you are not connected to iFit, the manual mode will 
be selected automatically.

3.  Start the walking belt. 

  To start the walking belt, press the Start button, the 
Speed increase button, or one of the speed buttons 
numbered 1 through 12.

 If you press the Start button or the Speed increase 
button, the walking belt will begin to move at 1 
mph. As you exercise, change the speed of the 
walking belt as desired by pressing the Speed 
increase and decrease buttons. Each time you 
press one of the buttons, the speed setting will 
change by 0.1 mph; if you hold down the button, 
the speed setting will change in increments of 0.5 
mph. Note: After you press the button, it may take 
a moment for the walking belt to reach the selected 
speed setting.

  If you press one of the numbered speed buttons, 
the walking belt will gradually change speed until 
it reaches the selected speed setting. To select a 
speed setting that includes a decimal——such as 3.5 
mph——press two numbered buttons in succession. 
For example, to select a speed setting of 3.5 mph, 
press the 3 button and then immediately press the 
5 button. Note: This will not function if the console 
is set to metric units.

 To stop the walking belt, press the Stop button. The 
time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the 
walking belt, press the Start button or the Speed 
increase button.
