The degree of incline can be related to % grade by taking the Tangent of the grade. For
instance, 15% grade is equal to 8.53 Degrees (Tan(.15)=8.53º). The opposite is true to
determine % Grade from Degree of incline (ArcTan (8.53º)=.15).

Manual
Program Overview
Manual Mode is available both through Quick Start and through the Manual program where
you are prompted to make a user weight adjustment. NOTE: There is no diagram because
incline and speed are user-controlled.
Manual Mode allows you to choose settings as you workout. You may choose your settings
according to how you feel or your endurance level. Since you remain in control, Manual Mode
may be the best choice for beginners or for those who have not worked out in a long time.
NOTE: Manual Mode is not a preprogrammed workout.
Press the Quick Start key to workout in Manual Mode. You can also begin Manual Mode by
pressing the Manual program key. To increase or decrease the speed while in Manual Mode
use the Speed
+ — keys. To increase or decrease the incline while in Manual Mode use
the arrows.
