THE INFORMATION MODE
The console features an information mode that keeps
track of treadmill usage information. The information
mode also allows you to select miles or kilometers as
the unit of measurement and to turn on and turn off the
demo mode.
To select the information mode, hold down the Stop
button, insert the key into the console, and then release
the Stop button. When the information mode is se-
lected, the following information will appear in the dis-
play:
The center of the
display will show
the number of
hours that the
treadmill has
been operated.
The lower right
corner of the dis-
play will show the total number of miles or kilometers
that the walking belt has moved. In addition, an “E” for
English miles or an “M” for metric kilometers will appear
in the right side of the display. To change the unit of
measurement, press the Speed increase button.
The console features a display demo mode, designed
to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a store. While
the demo mode is turned on, the console will function
normally when you plug in the power cord, switch the
reset/off circuit breaker to the reset position, and insert
the key into the console. However, when you remove
the key, the displays will remain lit, although the but-
tons will not function. If the demo mode is turned on, a
“d” will appear in the display while the information mode
is selected. To turn on or turn off the demo mode, press
the Speed decrease button.
Note: If you press the Display button while in the infor-
mation mode, the display may appear very dim, very
dark, or blank. If this happens, press the Display button
repeatedly until the display looks right.
To exit the information mode, remove the key from the
console.
HOW TO USE THE STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
To play music or audio books through the consoleʼs
stereo speakers, you must connect your MP3 player,
CD player, or other personal audio player to the con-
sole through the audio jack.
To use the audio jack, locate the included audio wire
and plug it into the audio jack. Then, plug the audio
wire into a jack on your MP3 player, CD player, or
other personal audio player. Make sure that the
audio wire is fully inserted.
Next, press the Play button on your MP3 player, CD
player, or other personal audio player. Adjust the vol-
ume on your personal audio player.
If you are using a personal CD player and the CD
skips, set the CD player on the floor or another flat sur-
face instead of on the console.
THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR
An optional chest pulse sensor offers hands-free oper-
ation as it tracks your heart rate during your workouts.
To purchase the optional chest pulse sensor, call
the telephone number on the front cover of this
manual.
