THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE
The console features an information mode that keeps
track of the total number of hours that the treadmill has
been operated and the total number of miles that the
walking belt has moved. The information mode also
allows you to switch the console from miles per hour to
kilometres per hour. In addition, the information mode
allows you to turn on and turn off the demo mode.
To select the information mode, hold down the Stop
button whilst inserting the key into the console. When
the information mode is selected, the following informa-
tion will be shown:
The Time/Watts display will
show the total number of
hours that the treadmill has
been used.
The Distance/Incline
display will show the total
number of miles that the
walking belt has moved.
An E, for English miles, or an
M, for metric kilometres, will
appear in the Speed/ Pace
display. Press the Speed +
button to change the unit of
measurement.
IMPORTANT: The Heart
Rate/Calories display
should be blank. If a "d" ap-
pears in the display, the con-
sole is in the "demo" mode.
This mode is intended to be
used only when a treadmill is displayed in a store.
When the console is in the demo mode, the power cord
can be plugged in, the key can be removed from the
console, and the displays and indicators on the console
will automatically light in a preset sequence, although
the buttons on the console will not operate. If a "d" ap-
pears in the Heart Rate/Calories display when the
information mode is selected, press the Speed –
button so the Heart display is blank.
To exit the information mode, remove the key from the
console.
