SECTION 4: OPERATING THE ALTERG
POWERING UP
The AlterG is turned on by
operating the switch located
on the front cover of the
system.
Note: Once the power
switch is turned on, wait
30 seconds before the
subject attempts to use
the AlterG. The system
requires 30 seconds to
run a series of diagnostic
tests. The weight control
display will show 0 or L
and the treadmill display
will be blank when the
system is ready to be
used.
PUTTING ON THE SHORTS
Your AlterG comes with dedicated shorts that ensure an airtight seal in
the fabric enclosure. Slip the shorts on in the same manner as a
conventional pair. The life of the shorts will be extended and they will
be easier to put on if you first remove your shoes.
Select a short size that is snug but not uncomfortable, and make
certain the tag is at your back and on the inside of the shorts. The
long tail of the zipper should be in front. It is advisable that you wear a
pair of running shorts or tights under the AlterG shorts.
