WARNING:
To reduce the risk of
serious injury, read the following precautions
before operating the console.
• Do not stand on the walking belt when turn-
ing on the power or starting the walking belt.
• Always wear the clip (see part "N"on page 8)
securely on the waistband of your clothing
whilst using 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 accuracy of
heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing 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 pulse programs. If you are taking
medication regularly, consult your physician
to find whether the medication will affect
your exercise heart rate.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep
liquids away from the console and use only a
sealed water bottle.

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE
The console features an information mode that keeps
track of the total number of hours that the treadmill has
been operated and the total number of miles that the
walking belt has moved. The information mode also
allows you to switch the console from miles per hour to
kilometres per hour. In addition, the information mode
allows you to turn on and turn off the demo mode.
To select the information mode, hold down the Stop
button whilst inserting the key into the console. When
the information mode is selected, the following informa-
tion will be shown:
The Distance/Incline/Laps
display will show the total
number of miles that the
walking belt has moved.
An "E," for English miles,
or an "M," for metric kilo-
metres, will appear in the
Speed/Minutes-Mile dis-
play. Press the Speed
button to change the unit
of measurement.
The Time/Segment Time
display will show the total
number of hours the tread-
mill has been used.
IMPORTANT: The
Calories/Watts display
should be blank. If a "d"
appears in the display, the
console is in the "demo"
mode. This mode is in-
tended to be used only when a treadmill is displayed in
a store. When the console is in the demo mode, the
power cord can be plugged in, the key can be removed
from the console, and the displays and indicators on
the console will automatically light in a preset se-
quence, although the buttons on the console will not
operate. If a "d" appears in the Calories/Fat Calories
display when the information mode is selected,
press the Speed
button so the Calories/ Fat
Calories display is blank.
To exit the information mode, remove the key from the
console.
HOW TO ADJUST THE FIRMNESS OF THE
CUSHIONING SYSTEM
The treadmill features a cushioning system that re-
duces the impact as you walk or run on the treadmill.
The firmness of the cushioning system is controlled
with the knob on the right side of the treadmill. To in-
crease the firmness, turn the knob clockwise; to de-
crease the firmness, turn the knob counterclockwise.
The decal above the knob will help you select the de-
sired firmness according to your weight. Note: The
faster you run on the treadmill, the firmer the cush-
ioning system should be. If the cushioning system
is too soft, you will hear the walking platform hitting
the platform bumpers as you run.
