HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
do this, the console displays or other electrical
components may become damaged.
Plug in the power cord (see
page 13). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker on
the treadmill frame near the
power cord. Switch the cir-
cuit breaker to the reset po-
sition.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is dis-
played in a store. If the displays light as soon as
you plug in the power cord and switch the circuit
breaker to the reset position, the demo mode is
turned on. To turn off the demo mode, hold down
the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays
remain lit, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
23 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot
rails of the treadmill.
Find the clip attached to
the key (see the drawing
to the right) and slide
the clip onto the waist-
band of your clothes.
Then, insert the key into
the console. After a moment, the displays will light. IM-
PORTANT: In an emergency situation, the key can
be pulled from the console, causing the walking
belt to slow to a stop. Test the clip by carefully tak-
ing a few steps backward; if the key is not pulled
from the console, adjust the position of the clip.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face
of the console, remove the plastic. To prevent dam-
age to the walking platform, wear clean athletic
shoes while using the treadmill. The first time you
use the treadmill, observe the alignment of the
walking belt, and center the walking belt if neces-
sary (see page 27).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of
measurement is selected or to change the unit of mea-
surement, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
23. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to
miles.
