of the incline buttons numbered -3 to 40. Each time
you press one of the buttons, the incline will gradu-
ally change until it reaches the selected incline set-

the incline is from -3% to -2.5%, the maximum
speed will be 8 mph; when the incline is from -
2% to -1.5%, the maximum speed will be 8.5
mph; when the incline is from -1% to -0.5%, the
maximum speed will be 9 mph; when the in-
cline is from 0% to 15%, the maximum speed
will be 10 mph; when the incline is from 15.5%
to 25%, the maximum speed will be 8 mph; and
when the incline is from 25.5% to 40%, the max-
imum speed will be 6 mph.
5. Monitor your progress with the display.
The console offers several display modes. The dis-
play mode that you select will determine which
workout information is shown. To select the de-
sired display mode, repeatedly press the Display
button or the increase and decrease buttons next
to the Enter button.
As you walk or run on the incline trainer, the center
display can show the following workout information:
• The incline level of the incline trainer.
• The speed of the walking belt.
• The elapsed time.
• The distance that you have walked or run.
• The approximate number of calories you have
burned.
• Your pace in minutes per mile or minutes per
kilometer.
• Your heart rate (see step 6 on this page).
Regardless of which display mode you select, the
speed and incline settings will appear in the display
for a few seconds each time you change the setting.
If desired, adjust the volume level by pressing the
Volume (VOL) increase and decrease buttons on
the console.
To reset the console, press the Stop button, re-
move the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of plas-
tic from the
metal contacts
if necessary. In
addition, make
sure that your
hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the walking
platform and hold the metal contacts on the
handrail for approximately ten seconds—avoid
moving your hands. When your pulse is detected,
your heart rate will be shown. For the most accu-
rate heart rate reading, continue to hold the
contacts for about 15 seconds.
7. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan features low and high speed settings.
Press the Coolaire Fan increase and decrease but-
tons repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off
the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt
is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a
few minutes.

Step onto the walking platform and press the Stop
button. Next, remove the key from the console and
put it in a secure place.
When you are finished using the incline trainer,
press the power switch into the off position and un-
plug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not
do this, the incline trainerʼs electrical compo-
nents may wear prematurely.
