HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the incline trainer has been ex-
posed to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to
room temperature 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 12). Next, locate the
reset/off circuit breaker on
the incline trainer 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 incline trainer is
displayed 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 sec-
onds. If the displays remain lit, see THE INFORMA-
TION MODE on page 19 to turn off the demo mode.
If the console is in demo mode, the incline will auto-
matically rise to the maximum incline level.
Next, stand on the walking
platform of the incline
trainer. Locate the clip at-
tached 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 emer-
gency situation, the key can be pulled from the
console, causing the walking belt to slow to a stop.
Test the clip by carefully taking a few steps back-
ward; if the key is not pulled from the console, ad-
just 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 incline trainer. The
first time the incline trainer is used, observe the
alignment of the walking belt, and center the walk-
ing belt if necessary (see page 23).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of mea-
surement is selected, see THE INFORMATION MODE
on page 19. For simplicity, all instructions in this man-
