HOW TO USE A CUSTOM PROGRAM

Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page

10.

Select a custom program.

To select a custom pro-

gram, press the Custom

Program button repeat-

edly until “P 3” or “P 4”

appears in the

Distance/Calories dis-

play. When a custom program is selected, the

maximum incline setting of the program will flash

in the Incline/Pulse display for a few seconds, the

maximum speed setting will flash in the Speed

display, and the program time will appear in the

Time/Pace display. A profile of the speed settings

of the program will scroll across the matrix.

Note: If only three columns of indicators scroll

across the matrix, see HOW TO CREATE A

CUSTOM PROGRAM on page 14.

Press the Start button or the Speed increase

button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and

incline settings that you programmed previously.

Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each custom program is divided into several one-

minute periods. One speed setting and one incline

setting are programmed for each period. Note: The

same speed setting and/or incline setting may be

programmed for two or more consecutive periods.

The speed setting for the

first period will be shown

in the flashing Current

Period column of the ma-

trix. (The incline settings

are not shown in the ma-

trix.) The speed settings for the next three periods

will be shown in the columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first period

of the program, both the Current Period column

and the column to the right will flash, a

series of

tones will sound, and the speed setting and the in-

cline setting will flash. When the first period ends,

all speed settings will move one column to the left

.

The speed setting for the second period will then

be shown in the flashing Current Period column,

and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the

second speed and incline settings that you pro-

grammed previously.

The program will continue in this way until the

speed setting for the last period is shown in the

Current Period column and the last period ends.

The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If desired, you can redefine to the program while

using it.

To change the speed or incline setting

for the current period,

simply press the Speed or

Incline buttons. When the current period ends, the

new setting will be saved in memory.

To increase

the length of the program,

first wait until the pro-

gram is completed. Then, press the Start button and

program speed and incline settings for as many ad-

ditional periods as desired. When you have added

as many periods as desired, press the Stop button

twice.

To decrease the length of the program,

press the Stop button twice at any time before the

program is completed.

To stop the program temporarily, press the Stop

button. To restart the program, press the Start but-

ton or the Speed increase button.

Follow your progress with the displays.

See step 5 on page 11.

Measure your heart rate if desired.


Turn on the fan if desired.


When you are finished exercising, remove the

key from the console.
