It is possible to end a workout immediately before the pre-set duration expires. To do so, press the STOP key twice. The
MESSAGE CENTER displays the completed time, total distance, and total calories burned. Press the STOP key again to
reset the console and set up a new workout.

It also is possible to initiate an early, but more gradual, end to a workout-in-progress by going into a cool-down mode.
This period of diminishing speed and elevation allows the user’s exertion level to decrease steadily. To initiate a cool-
down before the pre-set duration expires, press COOL DOWN key. The workout immediately goes into a four-minute
cool-down mode. For the first two minutes, the speed and elevation decrease to 50 percent of the values of the workout-
in-progress. For the final two minutes, the speed and elevation decrease another 50 percent. After the cool-down period,
the workout ends. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the completed time, total distance, and total calories burned. Press
the STOP key again to reset the console and set up a new workout.

Caution: The treadmill elevation must be set to 0% before folding the treadmill. Damage may occur
and the treadmill may not lock into a proper upright position.
