Select a display mode and follow your
progress with the exercise information on the
screen.
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the screen can
display the following exercise information:
• The elapsed time. Note: When a program is se-
lected, the screen will show the time remaining
in the program instead of the elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run. Note:
The console can display distance and speed in
either miles or kilometers (see HOW TO USE
THE INFORMATION MODE on page 19).
For
simplicity, all instructions in this section
refer to miles.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• The incline level of the treadmill. Note: The in-
cline level of the treadmill will be displayed only
when you press Incline buttons.
• Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate will be dis-
played only when you use the handgrip pulse
sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.
• When the manual mode is selected, the screen
can show a track that represents 1/4 mile (400
meters). As you walk or run on the treadmill, the
indicators around the track will appear in succes-
sion until the entire track appears. The track will
then disappear and the indicators will again
begin to appear in succession.
While the television is off, you can select one of
two display modes—a track and some of the exer-
cise information, or all of the exercise information.
While the television is on, you can select one of
three display modes—the information can be dis-
played on the right side of the screen, the bottom
of the screen, or the information can be turned off
while you watch the television. Press the Display
button repeatedly to select the desired display
mode.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
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 accu-
rately.
To use the
handgrip
pulse sensor,
first remove
the sheets of
clear plastic
from the
metal con-
tacts on the
handgrip
pulse sensor.
Next,
stand on the foot rails and hold the metal
contacts— avoid moving your hands. When your
pulse is detected, your heart rate will appear in
the display.
For the most accurate heart rate
reading, continue to hold the contacts for
about 15 seconds.
Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at low speed, press the Fan
button. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the
button a second time. To turn off the fan, press
the Fan button again. Note: If the fan is on when
the walking belt stops, the fan will automatically
turn off after a few minutes.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest set-
ting.
The incline must be at the lowest setting
when the treadmill is folded to the storage posi-
tion or the treadmill will become damaged. Next,
remove the key from the console and put it in a se-
cure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill,
switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off”
position and unplug the power cord.
