The upper display can show the elapsed time, the speed of the walking belt, the approximate number of calories that you have burned, the number of steps you have walked or run during your workout, or the distance that you have walked or run. Press the Display button repeatedly until the upper display shows the information that you are most interested in viewing. Note: When a step program is selected, the display will show the number of steps still to be taken instead of the number of steps you have walked or run. While information is shown in the upper display, the same information will not be shown in the lower left or lower right display. Note: For the treadmill to count your steps accurately, correct walking form is important. As you walk, try to maintain a steady pace, a uniform stride length, and a consistent position on the treadmill. Lighter users may also find it helpful to reduce the incline of the treadmill or to increase the speed of the walking belt. IMPORTANT: Always walk at a speed that is comfortable for you. To reset the display, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key. 7 Measure your heart rate if desired. Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean. Metal Contacts To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place your hands on the metal contacts-avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart symbol in the display will begin to flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. 8 Turn on the fan if desired. The fan features high and low speed settings. Press the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes. 9 When you are finished exercising, remove the key from the console. Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting or you may damage the treadmill when you fold it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place. When you are finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the treadmill's electrical components may wear prematurely. 14
