Press the START button to start the program.
When the button is pressed, the walking belt will
begin to move at 1.5 mph and the incline of the
INCLINE TRAINER will automatically adjust to
3%. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
The fitness test program is divided into seven,
four-minute levels. One speed setting and one in-
cline setting are programmed for each level.
At the end of each minute of the program, the
words LEVEL 1 will appear in the main display
and then a tone will sound.
When the first four-minute level of the program is
completed, the second four-minute level will
begin. The speed of the walking belt will then in-
crease to 2.5 mph and the incline will change to
4%.
At the beginning of each four-minute level, the
speed and/or incline of the INCLINE TRAINER will
automatically increase. The fitness test program
will continue in this way until your heart rate
reaches 70% of your estimated maximum heart
rate and the current four-minute level is completed.
The fitness test program will then end, regardless
of how many levels remain.
When the fitness test program is completed, the
word COOL-DOWN will be shown in the main dis-
play and a two-minute cool-down period will begin.
The incline and speed will then decrease.
When the cool-down period is completed, the
walking belt will slow to a stop and your fitness
level will be shown in the main display. There are
ten fitness levels; fitness level 10 is the highest.
Note: The SPEED and INCLINE buttons will not
function while the fitness test program is selected. If
your pulse is not detected during the program, the
letters PLS will flash in the main display. If your
pulse is not detected at the end of any four-minute
level, the fitness test program will end and the
main display will show a fitness level of 0.
The fitness test program cannot be stopped tem-
porarily and then restarted. However, the program
can be stopped at any time with the STOP button.
The main display will then show an estimated fit-
ness level.
When the program is completed, remove the
key.
