Press the START/PAUSE button to start the pro-
6
gram.
When the START/
PAUSE button is
pressed, the TIME dis-
play will begin counting
up. The CALORIES dis-
play will show "L 1"
(level 1), indicating that
the first 4-minute period of the FITNESS TEST pro-
gram has begun. The incline of the treadmill will au-
tomatically adjust to 3.0%, and the walking belt will
begin to move at 1.5 mph. Hold the handrails and
carefully begin walking.
When the TIME display reaches 4 minutes, the
CALORIES display will show "L 2," indicating that
the second 4-minute period has begun. The incline
will increase to 4%, and the speed will increase to
2.5 mph. At the beginning of each 4-minute period,
the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will auto-
matically increase. The FITNESS TEST will continue
in this manner until your pulse reaches 70% of your
maximum heart rate, and the current 4-minute period
is completed. The FITNESS TEST will then be com-
pleted, regardless of how many periods remain.
When the FITNESS TEST is completed, the letter
"C" will be shown in the CALORIES display, indicat-
ing that the cool-down period has begun. The TIME
display will count down from 2 minutes. When the
cool-down period is completed, the walking belt will
slow to a stop. Note: During the last ten seconds
of the cool-down period, the treadmill will auto-
matically adjust to the lowest incline level. Keep
your feet and objects from beneath the treadmill.
After the program is completed, your fitness level
will be shown in the TIME display. There are ten fit-
ness levels—fitness
level 10 (FL:10) is the
highest. Remember,
the FITNESS TEST is
intended only to indi-
cate your relative fit-
ness level.
Note: The SPEED and INCLINE buttons will not re-
spond while the FITNESS TEST program is selected.
If your pulse is not de-
tected during the pro-
gram, the NOT DE-
TECTED indicator will
light and the letters
"PLS" will flash in the
PULSE display. If your
pulse is not detected
during the last thirty
seconds of any 4-minute period (after 4 minutes,
after 8 minutes, etc.), the walking belt will slow to a
stop, the FITNESS TEST will end, and the TIME dis-
play will show a fitness level of 0 (FL:00). (See
GUIDELINES FOR ACCURATE PULSE READ-
INGS on page 8.) The FITNESS TEST program
cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted.
However, the program can be stopped at any time
by pressing the STOP button. The TIME display will
then show an estimated fitness level. If the STOP
button is pressed a second time, the MANUAL
mode will be selected.
When you are finished exercising, stop the walk-
7
ing belt and remove the key.
Step onto the foot rails, stop the walking belt, and re-
move the key from the console. Store the key in a
secure place. In addition, move the on/off switch to
the "off" position. (See the drawing near the bottom
of page 10.)
HOW TO SELECT THE INFORMATION MODE
The console features an information mode that keeps
track of the total time and distance accumulated on the
treadmill.
To access the information mode, hold down the STOP
button while inserting the key into the console. The
TIME display will show the total time accumulated on
the treadmill, in hours. The DISTANCE/INCLINE display
will show the total distance, in miles (if the total distance
exceeds 999 miles, the thousands and ten thousands
digits will be shown in the PULSE display). Note: The
SPEED display will show an "E" (for English system
[miles]) or "M" (for Metric system [kilometers]) (see
SPEED DISPLAY on page 12).
To exit the information mode, remove the key.
