FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to make your workouts more effective.

When the console is in the manual mode, the speed
and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a touch
of a button. As you exercise, you can watch your
progress on the LED ÒtrackÓ while the six displays
provide continuous exercise feedback. Eight preset
programs are also offered: three HEART RATE
programs automatically control the speed and incline
of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near predeter-
mined settings, and five INCLINE programs
automatically control the incline of the treadmill as they
guide you through effective workouts. The console also
features two CUSTOM programs that allow you to create
your own programs and store them in the consoleÕs
memory for future use.

To use the manual mode, follow the steps beginning
on page 12. To use the HEART RATE programs, see
page 15. To use the INCLINE programs, see page 17.
To create a CUSTOM program, see page 19. To use a
CUSTOM program, see page 20.

Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers (see Speed Display on page
13). For simplicity, all instructions in this userÕs manual
refer to miles.

CAUTION:

Before operating the

console, read the following precautions.

¥ Do not stand on the walking belt when

turning on the power or starting the
walking belt.

¥ Always wear the clip (see the drawing

above) while operating the treadmill. If the
key is pulled from the console, the walking
belt will stop.

¥ The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments.

¥ The heart rate monitor is not a medical

device. Various factors may affect the accu-
racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate
monitor is intended only as an exercise aid
in determining heart rate trends in general.

¥ If you have heart problems, or if you are

over 60 years of age and have been inactive,
do not use the HEART RATE programs
. If
you are taking medication regularly, consult
your physician to find whether the medica-
tion will affect your exercise heart rate.

¥ To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep

the console dry. Use a sealable water bottle.

Note: If there is a thin
sheet of plastic on the
console, remove it.
