HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM 1 Insert the key into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 14. 2 Select a preset program. To select one of the six preset programs, press the Certified Personal Trainer Programs button repeatedly. When a preset program is selected, the program time will appear in the display, the maximum incline setting of the program and the maximum speed setting of the program will flash in the display for a few seconds, and a profile of the speed settings of the program will scroll across the display. 3 Press the Start button to start the program. A moment after the button is pressed, 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 one-minute 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 two or more consecutive segments. The speed setting for the first seg- ment will be shown in the Current Segment flashing Current Segment column in the display. (The incline set- tings are not shown in the display.) The speed settings for the next several segments will be shown in the columns to the right. When only three seconds remain in the first segment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a series of tones will sound. If the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the display to alert you. When the first segment is completed, all speed settings will move one column to the left. The speed setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the second segment. Note: If all the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings may move downward so that only the highest indicators appear in the display. 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. Every few times a Speed button is pressed, an additional indicator will appear or disappear in the Current Segment column. 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. The time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the program, press the Start 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. 4 Follow your progress with the display.
