Check the unit before each use and verify that all fasteners are secure. Maintain the treadmill in good working condition. • Use the treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use accessory attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer; such at- tachments might cause injuries. • If you purchased the optional POLAR® chest strap, review the guidelines found in the Precor Heart Rate Option Owner’s Manual that is supplied with that option. • Never operate the unit if it is damaged, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped, or if it has been dropped in water. Return the unit to a service center for examination and repair. • Keep all electrical components such as the motor, power cord, and I/O switch, away from liquids to prevent shock. Do not set anything on the handrail, display console, or hood.

P/N 47689-101 March 3, 2004 Owner’s Manual Addendum C954i This addendum accompanies your C954i/C956i Owner's Manual and describes some aspects of the C954i product that are not presented in the manual. The C954i treadmill comes equipped with four programs: • Manual (MANL) • Random (RAND) • Cross Country (XCTR) • Fitness Test (FIT) Important: The Fitness Test does not appear unless it has been "enabled" by club personnel. Please refer to the C954i/C956i Owner's Manual section, Removing or Providing a Fitness Test. The C954i display and keypad as shown in Diagram 1 has a slightly different display than the C956i. The C954i display does not exhibit the program profile during a workout. As a user works out, a visual affirmation of progress is available through the workout statistics being displayed. An explanation of each program on the C954i not described in the owner’s manual is provided on the opposite side of this page. Diagram 1 C954i display To choose a program, tell the user to begin at the Precor banner and press ENTER. Follow the user-friendly display prompts. Use the arrow keys to display the available programs. Once the program appears on the display, press ENTER to select it and to continue the setup process. Note: Refer to Quick Steps to Working Out in the C954i/C956i Owner's Manual for more information. RANDOM PROGRAM On the C954i, the Random program (RAND) offers a different regimen every time it is chosen. A user might use this program for a change of pace. The program segments are preset and maintain a specified incline. The incline begins level, at zero, for the first segment and cannot exceed 7 percent throughout the course. The maximum incline change allowed between segments is plus or minus 4 percent. Within these confines, a user can override the preset segments using the INCLINE ML keys. If a user sets the TIME for the Random program as INFINITE, the user needs to press the red STOP button to end the workout. Note: If a user chooses a time frame of INFINITE, a cool-down period does not automatically occur when the workout is stopped. Remind users to always incorporate a cool down period into their workout. Mention that they can use the QUICKSTARTTM feature to access the Manual program (MANL) and cool down. CROSS COUNTRY PROGRAM The Cross Country program (XCTR) is a 30-minute program that simulates hills and vales. The incline is preset. A user can make changes to the running belt speed using the SPEED LM keys and even the preset incline can be overridden using the INCLINE ML keys.
