elevation value set with the UP or DOWN buttons. After exercise ("End" is displayed) return PaceMaster to 0% incline by pressing the DOWN button
until the elevation mechanism stops moving.
• CALORIES - Before exercise, you can predict the calorie burn for your workout. Enter your time, speed, and elevation goals. Press CALORIES to
display your predicted calorie burn, displayed in the DISTANCE window, preceded by the letter "c". For example 143 calories is displayed as "c
143". You may fine tune your calorie burn to a specific value by changing your time, speed, or elevation. If you begin "fine tuning" within three
seconds of pressing the calorie button, the calorie display will remain until "fine tuning" has stopped for three or more seconds. During exercise,
press the CALORIE button to display the actual amount of calories burned thus far. The calorie display disappears three seconds after the button is
pressed. If you want to have the calories continuously displayed during exercise as opposed to distance hold down the calorie button until a decimal
point appears directly after the letter "c" in the calorie display. You can unlock the calorie display by pressing either the calorie or aerobic points
button.
• AEROBIC POINTS - Functions the same as calories but displays Aerobic Points preceded by the letter "P". See "Exercise and Your Treadmill" for
a description of Aerobic Points.
• WARM UP/COOL DOWN - Before exercise, this button can add a 5 minute warm up program prior to your main exercise routine, and/or a 5
minute cool down program following your main routine. The warm up program is designed to loosen you up and get you ready for the main exercise
routine. The cool down program allows your body to gently adjust to the end of a workout instead of abruptly stopping. Most authorities advise this
method of exercising.
Warm up and cool down speeds are calculated by the computer, based on your main exercise starting and finishing speeds respectively. If your
main exercise starting speed is 4.5 mph or less your warm up will begin at 65% of that speed and go to 90% of that speed during the 5 minute warm
up. If your main exercise finishing speed is 4.5 mph or less your cool down will begin at 90% of that speed and go to 65% of that speed during the 5
minute cool down. If your main exercise starting speed is 4.6 mph or greater your warm up will begin at 50% of that speed and go to 75% of that
speed during the 5 minute warm up. If your main exercise finishing speed is 4.6 mph or greater your cool down will begin at 75% of that speed and
go to 50% of that speed during the 5 minute cool down.
Before Exercise:
To add both a warm up & cool down to your workout press the warm up/cool down button once. You will see that both the warm up & cool down
lights are on indicating that they will be added to your workout. You will also notice that the workout time has been increased by 10 minutes to
include the warm up & cool down.
To add a warm up to your workout press the warm up/cool down button twice. You will see that the warm up light is on indicating that it will be added
to your workout. You will also notice that the workout time has been increased by 5 minutes to include the warm up.
To add a cool down to your workout press the warm up/cool down button three times. You will see that the cool down light is on indicating that it will
be added to your workout. You will also notice that the workout time has been increased by 5 minutes to include the cool down.
At any time during warm up, the WARM UP button can be pressed to discontinue warm up and begin your main exercise. Similarly, during main
exercise you can press the COOL DOWN button to end the exercise and immediately begin a cool down.

• PROGRAM SELECT, LEARN - These two buttons allow PaceMaster to memorize your favorite routines and automatically repeat them at any
desired time. This eliminates the need to enter time, speed, and elevation settings each time you exercise. It also eliminates the to need manually
change speed or elevation during your workout. Once PaceMaster LEARNs a routine, it can recall that routine and repeat it exactly, by pressing a
single button!
PaceMaster is shipped from the factory with the 4 custom memories empty. For a full description of the preprogrammed courses see the section
called "Using the Preprogrammed Courses". Step by step instructions for programming your own courses can be found the section "Designing Your
Own Courses".
• PROGRAM SELECT - This button is used before your workout. After inserting the magnetic safety key and entering weight, press PROGRAM
SELECT once, to retrieve the first of four factory programs stored in PaceMaster's memory. The light next to the program lights up to indicate you
have chosen that program. Notice that time, speed, and elevation settings are now displayed in the windows. Pressing PROGRAM SELECT a
second time recalls the next program pressing a third time recalls "3", the fourth press recalls "4", etc.... To use one of the programs, press
PROGRAM SELECT until the indicator light next to the program is on, then press START.
• LEARN - The LEARN button allows PaceMaster to memorize your exercise routine while you are doing it. Your program is stored in one of the
four custom memories previously described, replacing the old program in that memory. To use LEARN, first use PROGRAM SELECT to select the
custom memory (1,2,3, or 4) where your program will be stored. Next press the LEARN button. The light in the upper right-hand side of learn the
button lights to show that you have entered the learn mode. The time and speed displays will have dashes in them indicating the old program has
