HOW TO USE PRESET PROGRAMS
Insert the key fully into the console.
See GETTING STARTED on page 11.
Select the desired preset program.
The console offers eleven preset programs—three
programs that focus on weight loss, five programs
designed for aerobic exercise, and three pro-
grams for high-performance conditioning.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be
selected. To select one of the preset programs,
first press the Select Goal button repeatedly until
the words “WEIGHT LOSS,” “AEROBIC,” or
“PERFORMANCE” appear in the main display.
Next, press the Select Course button repeatedly
to select one of the weight loss, aerobic, or perfor-
mance programs. For example, if the words
“WEIGHT LOSS” appear in the main display, you
can select the 20-minute Pyramid, 35-minute
Pyramid, or 20-minute Fat Burn program.
Three seconds after a preset program is selected,
the name of the selected program, the maximum
speed setting for the program, the maximum in-
cline setting for the program, and the total program
time will begin to scroll across the main display.
The program dis-
play will show the
speed settings of
the program you
have selected.
Note: If you have
selected a program with more than twelve seg-
ments, the display will show only the first twelve
speed settings.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time seg-
ments of different lengths. (The main display
shows both the time remaining in the program and
the time remaining in the current segment of the
program.) One speed setting and one incline set-
ting are programmed for each segment. (The
same speed setting and/or incline setting may be
programmed for consecutive segments.) The
speed setting for
the first segment is
shown in the flash-
ing Current
Segment column of
the program dis-
play. (The incline
settings are not
shown in the program display.) The speed set-
tings for the next several segments are shown in
the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash and a
series of tones will sound. In addition, if the speed
and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change,
the speed setting and/or incline setting will flash in
the main display to alert you. When the first seg-
ment is completed, all speed settings will move one
column to the left. The speed setting for the second
segment will then be shown in the flashing Current
Segment column and the treadmill will automati-
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings for the
second segment. Note: If all of the indicators in the
Current Segment column are lit after the speed set-
tings have moved to the left, the speed settings will
move downward so that only the highest indicators
appear in the program display. If some of the indi-
cators in the Current Segment column are not lit
when the speed settings move to the left again, the
speed settings will move back up.
The program will continue in this way until the
speed setting for the last segment is shown in the
Current Segment column and no time remains in
the program. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.
