PRESET PROGRAMS SPEED/INCLINE SETTINGS
The preset program Speed and Incline levels are shown in the chart below. The Speed numbers
shown in the chart indicate a percentage of the top speed of the program. For instance, the first
Speed setting for P1 (Program 1, Hill) shows the number 20. This means that this segment of the
program will have a speed that is 20% of the top speed for the program (The user sets the top
speed in the procedure above). If the user sets the top speed to 10 mph / 16 kph, then the first
segment will be 2 mph / 3.2 kph. Youwill notice that segment 12 shows 100 which means, the
speed will be set to 100% of 10 mph/ 16 kph or simply 10 mph / 16 kph.
