HOW TO USE A WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAM 1. Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 11. 2. Enter your weight. See step 2 on page 11. Note: Always enter your weight before using a weight loss program; the speed and incline settings of the program will depend on the weight setting that you enter. 3. Select a weight loss program. To select one of the four weight loss programs, press the Professional Weight Loss Programs button repeatedly. When a weight loss program is selected, the display will show the calorie goal (the approximate number of calories to be burned during the program) and the number of minutes that the program will last. In addition, the maximum incline setting of the program and the maximum speed setting of the program will flash in the display. A few seconds after a weight loss program is selected, a profile of the speed settings of the program will scroll across the display. 4. Press the Start button to start the program. A moment after you press the button, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking. Each program is divided into 30, 35, 40, or 45 oneminute segments. One speed setting and one incline setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same speed setting and/or incline setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. During the program, the profile will show your progress. The Current Segment flashing seg- ment of the profile represents the current segment of the pro- gram. The height of the flashing segment indicates the speed setting for the current segment. At the end of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a different speed or incline setting is pro- grammed for the next segment, the speed or incline setting will flash in the display to alert you. The program will continue in this way until the last segment of the profile flashes in the display and the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop. If the speed or incline setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed and Incline buttons. Important: When the current segment of the program ends, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the next segment. To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Speed increase button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the next segment of the program begins, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for that segment. The program will continue in this way until the last segment of the program ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop. Important: The calorie goal is an estimate of the number of calories that you will burn during the program. The actual number of calories that you burn will depend on your weight. In addition, if you manually change the speed or incline of treadmill during the program, the number of calories you burn will be affected. 13
