Follow your progress with the LED track and the
4
four displays.
The LED Track—
The LED track
represents a dis-
tance of 1/4 mile.
As you exercise,
the indicators
around the track
will light one at a
time until you have
completed 1/4 mile. A new lap will then begin.
DISTANCE/LAPS
display—This display
shows the distance that
you have walked and the
number of laps you have
completed. The display
will change from one number to the other every
seven seconds. An "L" will appear in the display
when the number of laps is shown. Note: If the KPH
indicator beside the SPEED display is lit, the dis-
tance will be shown in kilometers; if the indicator is
not lit, the distance will be shown in miles.
SPEED display—This
display shows the speed
of the walking belt. If the
KPH indicator beside the
display is lit, the speed
will be shown in kilome-
ters; if the indicator is not lit, the speed will be shown
in miles. To change the unit of measurement, press
the ON/RESET button for seven seconds.
CALS/FAT CALS/
PULSE display—This
display shows the ap-
proximate numbers of
calories and fat calories
you have burned. (See
BURNING FAT on page 14 for an explanation of fat
calories.) Every seven seconds, the display will
change from one number to the other. The FAT in-
dicator will light when the number of fat calories is
shown. Note: This display also shows your pulse
when the pulse sensor is used.
TIME display—This dis-
play shows the elapsed
time.
Note: If the walking belt is stopped and no
console buttons are pressed for five minutes,
the displays will automatically turn off. To light
the displays, press the ON/RESET button.
To reset the displays,
press the ON/RESET
button. The displays will
darken for a moment
and then light.
Measure your pulse, if desired.
5
Stand on the foot rails and place your thumb on the
pulse sensor as shown. The pulse sensor is pres-
sure-activated—fully press it down. (Do not press
too hard, or the
circulation in
your thumb will
be restricted,
and your pulse
will not be de-
tected.) Next,
raise your thumb
slightly until the
heart-shaped
indicator by the
CALS/FAT CALS/
PULSE display
flashes steadily.
Hold your thumb at this level. After a few seconds,
three dashes will appear in the display and your
then pulse will be shown. Hold your thumb on the
sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accu-
rate reading. If the displayed pulse appears to be
too high or too low, or if your pulse is not displayed,
lift your thumb off the sensor and allow the display
to reset. Press down again on the sensor as de-
scribed above.
Make sure that your thumb is positioned as shown,
and that you are applying the proper amount of pres-
sure to the pulse sensor. Try the sensor several
times until you become familiar with it. Remember to
stand still while measuring your pulse.
Change the incline of the treadmill, if desired.
6
To change the incline, hold down
the top or bottom of the incline con-
trol until the desired incline level is
reached. Important: Before fold-
ing the treadmill, adjust the in-
cline to the lowest position.
When you are finished exercising, stop the
7
walking belt and remove the key.
Step onto the foot rails, stop the walking belt, and
remove the key from the console. Store the key in a
secure place.
