HOW TO CREATE CUSTOM PROGRAMS 6 Press the START/ENTER button or the SPEED Ò+Ó button to start the program. The two CUSTOM programs are programs that you create. CUSTOM programs control both the speed and the incline of the treadmill, and can be up to 40 minutes long. The programs are stored in the consoleÕs memory, and can be changed as many times as desired. Follow the steps below to create a CUSTOM program. When the button is pressed, the SPEED display will flash and a tone will sound twice. If the incline of the treadmill is higher than 1.5%, it will automatically decrease to 1.5%. After a moment, the walking belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and begin walking. 1 Plug in the power cord. See step 1 on page 12. 7 Hold down the CUSTOM 1 or 2 button for two seconds and program the desired speed and incline settings. 2 Insert the key fully into the console. See step 2 on page 12. 3 Put on the CardioTrack heart rate monitor if desired. For the PULSE display to show your heart rate, the heart rate monitor must be worn. To put on the heart rate monitor, see How to Use the CardioTrackª Heart Rate Monitor on page 8. 4 Select one of the CUSTOM programs. When the key is inserted, the MANUAL mode will be selected. To select one of the CUSTOM programs, press the CUSTOM 1 or 2 button. A ÒCP1Ó or ÒCP2Ó will appear in the SPEED display. Note: The indicators in the LED matrix will be explained in step 7. 5 Enter your weight if desired. When a CUSTOM program is selected, the current weight setting will flash in the INCLINE display. Although it is not necessary to enter your weight to use a CUSTOM program, the CALORIES display will be more accurate if your weight is entered. If you have already entered your weight, or if you do not want to enter your weight, go to step 6. To enter your weight, press the WEIGHT buttons (see step 5 on page 12). When the CUSTOM 1 or 2 button is held down for two seconds, the CUSTOM PROGRAM RECORD indicator will light. Speed and incline settings can be programmed only when the indicator is lit. Refer to the LED matrix. Each CUSTOM program is divided into one-minute periods. One speed setting and one incline setting can be programmed for each period. The speed setting of the first period will be shown in the flashing column of First Speed Setting the LED matrix. (The incline settings are not shown in the LED matrix.) To program speed and incline settings for the first period, simply adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill as desired with the SPEED and INCLINE buttons. Every few times one of the SPEED buttons is pressed, one additional indicator will light or darken in the flashing column of the LED matrix. When only three seconds remain in the first oneminute period of the program, both the first and second speed settings in the LED matrix will flash. When the first period is completed, the current speed and incline settings will be saved in the consoleÕs memory. All speed settings in the LED matrix will then move one column to the left. The second speed setting will then flash. Program speed and incline settings for the second period as described above. Repeat this procedure until you have programmed speed and incline settings for as many periods as desired. When you are finished with your workout, hold down the STOP button for two seconds. Your CUSTOM program will then be saved in the consoleÕs memory. 19
