The steps for setting up a HILL, RANDOM, SPORT TRAINING 5K, SPORT TRAINING 10K
and SPORT TRAINING TIME workout include selecting a level. The word "level" refers to a
range of incline percentages. The treadmill features 20 levels, with Level 1 having the lowest
average incline grade and Level 20 having the highest.
LEVEL % Incline
1 0.0 - 1.5
2 0.0 - 2.2
3 0.0 - 2.9
4 0.0 - 3.6
5 0.0 - 4.3
6 0.0 - 5.0
7 0.0 - 5.7
8 0.0 - 6.4
9 0.5 - 7.1
10 1.5 - 7.8
Within each level are seven incline percentages, or hills. During a workout, each hill appears in
the WORKOUT PROFILE window as rows of light stacked in a column. The number of lit rows
within a column corresponds to an incline percentage. For example, in Level 5, the lowest
incline is 0.0 percent and is represented as one lit row. The highest incline, 4.3 percent, is repre-
sented by a column with all seven rows lit.
In the HILL and RANDOM workouts, these varying hills occur for equal durations, as discussed
in the HILL workout description. When the workout program brings up a new hill, the incline per-
centage changes automatically to match that hill.
To change levels during a workout, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad.

The InstaPace TM Feedback feature enables users to monitor their pace, or rate of minutes
per mile, while running on the treadmill. This feature must be enabled in "User Menu". See
Section 5, titled "My Configuration", for more information. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the
MPH and pace simultaneously when the user adjusts the treadmill speed with the ARROW
KEYS. If the user adjusts the speed using the NUMERIC keypad, the MESSAGE CENTER dis-
plays the pace after the treadmill reaches the new speed.

If, during a workout, a user decreases the speed to the minimum and continues to hold the
DECREASE SPEED ARROW, the speed falls to 0 MPH, which is pause mode. The minimum
speed is 0.5 MPH, unless changed in "User Menu". See section 5.2, titled User Menu Items, for
more information.

Life Fitness' unique Cool-Down Protocol automatically customizes every cool-down based on
each user's workout performance. Workout performance factors, such as speed, incline, duration,
and heart rate, determine the duration and intensity of the cool-down.

IMMING
The dimming feature controls the brightness of the treadmill console display. To change the
default brightness setting, press the PERSONAL TRAINER key repeatedly until the MESSAGE
CENTER displays "DIMMING," and press ENTER. Then, use the ARROW keys to increase or
decrease the brightness to the desired setting, and press ENTER to save the new setting; or
press CLEAR to revert to the default brightness setting.
If a new brightness setting is selected for a workout, that setting remains in place until it is manu-
ally changed, or the workout concludes. When a new workout begins, the brightness reverts to
the default setting.
