HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
do this, you may damage the console displays or
other electrical components.
Plug in the power cord (see
page 13). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker on
the treadmill frame near the
power cord. Make sure that
the circuit breaker is in the
"reset" position.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is dis-
played in a store. If the displays light as soon as
you plug in the power cord and switch the reset/off
circuit breaker to the reset position, the demo
mode is turned on. To turn off the demo mode,
hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the
displays remain lit, see THE INFORMATION MODE
on page 22 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot rails
of the treadmill. Locate the
clip attached to the key (see
the drawing at the right),
and slide the clip securely
onto the waistband of your
clothes. Then, insert the key
into the console. After a mo-
ment, the displays will light.
IMPORTANT: In an emergency situation, the key
can be pulled from the console, causing the walk-
ing belt to slow to a stop. Test the clip by carefully
taking a few steps backward; if the key is not
pulled from the console, adjust the position of the
clip.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove the plastic. To pre-
vent damage to the walking platform, wear clean
athletic shoes while using the treadmill. The first
time the treadmill is used, observe the alignment of
the walking belt, and center the walking belt if nec-
essary (see page 27).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of
measurement is selected or to change the unit of mea-
surement, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
22. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to
miles.
