HOW TO USE CUSTOM PROGRAMS
Insert the key fully into the console.
1
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 12.
Select one of the custom programs.
2
When the key is in-
serted, the manual mode
will be selected. To se-
lect a custom program,
press the Program
Select button repeatedly
until a "P 6" or "P 7" appears in the
Distance/Incline display.
When a custom program is selected, the Speed
display will flash the maximum speed setting of
the program for a few seconds. The Time/Pace
display will show how long the program will last.
Note: If only three columns of indicators are lit
in the matrix, see HOW TO CREATE A CUS-
TOM PROGRAM on page 19.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
3
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings that you programmed previously.
Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each custom program is
divided into several Current Segment
one-minute segments.
One speed setting and
one incline setting are
programmed for each
segment. The speed
setting for the first seg-
ment will be shown in
the flashing Current Segment column of the ma-
trix. (The incline settings are not shown in the ma-
trix.) The speed settings for the next seven seg-
ments will be shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a se-
ries of tones will sound, the Speed display and the
Distance/Incline display will flash, and all speed
settings will move one column to the left. The
speed setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the flashing Current Segment column
and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the
second speed and incline settings that you pro-
grammed previously.
The program will continue until the speed setting
for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column and the last segment ends. The
walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If desired, you can redefine to the program whilst
using it. To change the speed or incline setting
during the current segment, simply press the
Speed or Incline buttons. When the current segment
is completed, the new setting will be saved in mem-
ory. To increase the length of the program, first
wait until the program is completed. Then, press the
Start button and program speed and incline settings
for as many additional segments as desired. (Note:
Whilst you are adding segments to the program,
the speed settings in the matrix will not move to
the left. Instead, each time a segment is com-
pleted, the flashing Current Segment column will
move one column to the right. If the Current
Segment column reaches the right side of the ma-
trix, when the current segment is completed all
columns of indicators in the matrix will move three
columns to the left.) When you have added as
many segments as desired, press the Stop button
twice. To decrease the length of the program,
press the Stop button twice at any time before the
program is completed.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. The Time/Pace display will begin to flash.
To restart the program, press the Start button or
the Speed + button. The walking belt will begin to
move at 1 mph. When the next segment of the pro-
gram begins, the treadmill will automatically adjust
to the speed and incline settings for the next seg-
ment.
Follow your progress with the displays.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

When you are finished exercising, remove the

Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
7
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each pulse program is divided into several time
segments of different lengths. One target heart rate
is programmed for each segment. Note: If pulse
program 4 is selected, the same target heart rate
is programmed for all segments.
During each segment, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the current target heart
rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above
the target heart rate, the speed of the treadmill will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the
speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the
program (see step 6 on page 16) and your heart
rate is still too far below the current target heart
rate, the incline of the treadmill will also increase
to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate.
During the last three seconds of each segment, a
series of tones will sound and the Speed display
and the Distance/Incline display will flash.
The program will continue until the last segment
ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low
at any time during the program, you can adjust the
setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However,
each time the console compares your heart rate to
the current target heart rate, the speed and/or in-
cline of the treadmill may automatically change to
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters "PLS" will flash in the Calories/Pulse
display and the speed and incline of the treadmill
may automatically decrease until your pulse is de-
tected. If this occurs, see CHEST PULSE SEN-
SOR TROUBLESHOOTING on page 9.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. Pulse programs cannot be stopped tem-
porarily and then restarted. To use a pulse pro-
gram again, reselect the program and start it at
the beginning.
Follow your progress with the displays.
