Our Web site at www.iFIT.com allows you to access
basic programs, audio programs, and video programs
directly from the internet. Additional options are soon
to be available. See www.iFIT.com for details.

To use programs from our Web site, the treadmill must
be connected to your home computer. See HOW TO
CONNECT YOUR COMPUTER on page 21. In
addition, you must have an internet connection and
an internet service provider. A list of specific system
requirements is found on our Web site.

Follow the steps below to use a program from our
Web site.

Insert the key fully into the console.

See GETTING STARTED on page 11.

Select the iFIT.com mode.

When the key is in-
serted, the manual
mode will be selected.
To use a program from
our Web site, press the
iFIT.com button. The in-
dicator above the button will light and the words
“IFIT MODE” will appear in the main display.

Go to your computer and start an internet
connection.

Start your web browser, if necessary, and go
to our Web site at www.iFIT.com.

Follow the desired links on our Web site to se-
lect a program.

Read and follow the on-line instructions for using
a program.

Follow the on-line instructions to start the pro-
gram.

When you start the program, an on-screen count-
down will begin.

Return to the treadmill and stand on the foot
rails. Find the clip attached to the key and
slide the clip onto the waistband of your
clothes.

When the on-screen countdown ends, the pro-
gram will begin and the walking belt will begin to
move. Hold the handrails, step onto the walking
belt, and begin walking. During the program, an
electronic “chirping” sound will alert you when the
speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to
change.

CAUTION: Always listen for the

“chirp” and be prepared for speed and/or in-
cline changes.

If the speed or incline settings are too high or too
low, you can manually override the settings at any
time by pressing the Speed or Incline buttons on
the console.

However, when the next “chirp” is

heard, the speed and/or incline will change to
the next settings of the program.

To stop the walking belt at any time, press the
Stop button on the console. The time will begin to
flash in the main display. To restart the program,
press the Start button or the Speed + button. After
a moment, the walking belt will begin to move at 1
mph.

When the next “chirp” is heard, the

speed and incline will change to the next set-
tings of the program
.

When the program is completed, the walking belt
will stop and the time will begin to flash in the time
display. Note: To use another program, press the
Stop button and go to step 5.

Note: If the speed or incline of the treadmill
does not change when a “chirp” is heard,
make sure that the iFIT.com indicator is lit and
that the Time display is not flashing. In addi-
tion, make sure that the audio cable is prop-
erly connected, that it is fully plugged in, and
that it is not wrapped around a power cord.

When the program has ended, remove the key.

See step 7 on page 15.

Distance/Laps—The
centre section of the
main display shows
the distance that you
have walked and the
number of 1/4-mile
laps you have completed. The display will change
from one number to the other every few seconds;
the Laps indicator will light when the number of
laps is shown.

Calories/Pulse
When you are not
using the handgrip
pulse sensor, the next
section of the main dis-
play will show the ap-
proximate numbers of calories and fat calories
you have burned (see FAT BURNING on page
31). The display will change from one number to
the other every few seconds; the Fat indicator will
light when the number of fat calories is shown.
When you are using the handgrip pulse sensor,
the display will show your heart rate (see step 6 at
the right).

Speed—The right side
of the main display
shows the speed of the
walking belt.

Note: When the Km/H
indicator below the
Speed display is lit, the
console will display
speed and distance in
kilometres; when the
indicator is not lit, the console will display speed
and distance in miles. To change the unit of mea-
surement, first hold down the Stop button whilst in-
serting the key into the console. An “E” for English
miles or an “M” for metric kilometres will appear in
the Speed display. Press the Speed + button to
change the unit of measurement. When the de-
sired unit of measurement is selected, remove the
key and then reinsert it.

Note: For simplicity, all

instructions in this manual refer to miles.

To reset the main display, press the Stop button,
remove the key, and then reinsert the key.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

To measure your heart rate, use the chest pulse
sensor (see page 9) or the handgrip pulse sensor
(follow the instructions below).

Stand on the foot
rails
and place
your hands on the
metal contacts on
the handrail. Your
palms must be
resting on the
upper contacts,
and your fingers
must be touching
the lower con-
tacts—

avoid mov-

ing your hands.
When your pulse is
detected, the Pulse indicator will light and then
your heart rate will be shown in the main display.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, con-
tinue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

Turn on the fans if desired.

To turn on the fans at low speed, press the Fans
button. To turn on the fans at high speed, press
the Fans button a second time. To turn off the
fans, press the Fans buttons a third time. Note:
Any time that the walking belt is stopped for a few
minutes, the fans will automatically turn off.

When you are finished exercising, stop the
walking belt and remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest level.
The incline must be at the lowest level when
the treadmill is raised to the storage position or
the treadmill will be damaged.
Next, remove the
key from the console and put it in a secure place.
Note: If the displays and indicators on the con-
sole remain lit after the key is removed, the
console is in the “demo” mode. See page 25
and turn off the demo mode.

When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off switch near the power cord to the off po-
sition and unplug the power cord.
