When starting unit.

Cybex recommends that the treadmill be unplugged or the on/off (I/O) power switch turned off (O)
when it is not in use.
1. Without anyone on the treadmill, plug the power cord into a power outlet from a grounded,
dedicated circuit as described under Electrical Requirements in this chapter.
Ensure the power cord is not being pinched under the front of the treadmill.
2. Toggle the on/off (I/O) power switch to the on (I) position.The on/off (I/O) power switch is
located under the front end of the unit, or on the front right side panel.
3. The control panel will light up and be in the opening screen.
4. Press the Quick Start key. The treadmill begins a countdown “3...2...1” and sounds a tone
for each count. After it reaches one (1), the treadmill gives a longer tone and then begins
accelerating the belt to reach 0.5 mph (0.8 kph).
5. The lower left display will show the incline and the lower right display will show the actual
speed.
6. Press and hold down the Speed + key until the treadmill reaches a speed of approximately 4
mph (6.4 kph), as indicated on the display.
7. Observe the belt to see that it is running properly; it should stay centered in the middle of the
deck. If you have problems with the running belt operation, see Running Belt Adjustments in
the Preventive Maintenance chapter.
8. Run the treadmill through its full speed range. First press the Speed + key until the treadmill
reaches its highest speed. Then press the
Speed - key until the treadmill is back to 0.5 mph
(0.8 kph).
9. As you press the Incline ▲▼ or Speed + - keys, the respective displays will show the actual
incline or speed.
10. When the treadmill reaches the set incline and speed, the displays will remain steadily
illuminated to indicate that the desired settings have been reached.
11. Run the treadmill through its full % grade range. Press the Incline ▲ key until the treadmill
reaches its highest grade (15%). Then press the
Incline ▼ key until the treadmill reaches 0%
grade.
12. Press the Stop key once to stop the running belt and enter Review Mode. Press the Stop key
