ENTERING YOUR AGEANDWEIGHT
For the console to measure calories accurately, and for the Fat Calorie Monitor and the Fitness Test to function
properly, your age and weight must be entered into the console. To enter your age, press one of the AGE SET
buttons. The current age setting will be shown in the PULSE display. Each time one of the AGE SET buttons is
pressed, the age setting will change by 1 year. If the buttons are held down, the age setting will change in incre-
ments of 5 years. After you have entered your age, press one of the WEIGHT SET buttons. The current weight
setting will be shown in the CALORIES display. Each time one of the WEIGHT SET buttons is pressed, the
weight setting will change by I pound. If the buttons are held down, the weight setting will change in increments
of 5 pounds.
Once you have entered your age and weight, the numbers will be retained in the console's memory, even if the
power cord is unplugged. The numbers can be changed, if desired, by pressing the AGE SET or WEIGHT SET
buttons.
CONTROLLING THE SPEED
When the power is turned on, the console will be in the MANUAL CONTROL mode, and the walking belt will be
stationary. The speed of the walking belt is controlled by pressing the SPEED buttons. Each'time the INCREASE
SPEED button is pressed, the speed will increase by 0.1 mile per hour, beginning at 0.5 miles per hour. Each
time the DECREASE SPEED button is pressed, the speed will decrease by 0.1 mile per hour. The buttons can be
held down to change the speed rapidly. The speed range of the walking belt is 0.5 miles per hour to 10 miles per
hour.
WAR N ING: A.er
the SPEED buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the walking belt to
reach the selected speed setting. Adjust the speed gradually until you are familiar with the operation of
the treadmill.
Press the INCREASE SPEED button until the walking belt begins to move at slow speed. Hold the handrails, step
carefully onto the walking belt, and begin exemising. Change the speed as desired by pressing the SPEED but-
tons. To stop the walking belt, hold down the DECREASE SPEED button, or press the STOP button.
CONTROLLING THE INCLINE
To vary the intensity of your exercise, the incline of the treadmill can be changed by pressing the INCLINE but-
tons. Each time one of the buttons is pressed, the incline will change by 0.5%. The buttons can be held down to
change the incline rapidly. The incline range of the treadmill is 1% to 12%. Note: Because the INCLINE display
has two digits, the display will show 10% when the incline is set at either 10% or 10.5%, and 11% when the
incline is set at 11% or 11.5%.
Note: After the INCLINE buttons are pressed, it will take a few seconds for the treadmill to reach the
selected incline setting.
