THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sili-

cone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deterio-

rate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be earthed. If it should malfunction or break

down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric cur-

rent to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped

with a power cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an

earthing plug.

Important: If the power cord is damaged, it must

be replaced with a manufacturer-recommended power cord.

See drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord into the

socket on the treadmill.

See drawing 2. Press the pins on the power cord into the metal clips

in the adapter as shown. Close the adapter cover over the end of the

power cord and tighten the screw in the adapter.

Important: Make

sure that the adapter cover is secure and the screw has been

tightened before using the power cord.

See drawing 3. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that is

properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not compatible with

GFCI-equipped outlets.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-earthing conductor can result in an in-

creased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as

to whether the product is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug provided with the product—if it will

not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers a selection of features

designed to make your workouts more effective and

enjoyable. When the manual mode of the console is

selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be

changed with the touch of a button. As you exercise,

the console will display continuous exercise feedback.

You can even measure your heart rate using the built-

in pulse sensor.

The console also features four preset programs – two

incline based programs and two speed based pro-

grams. Each program automatically controls the speed

and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an

effective workout. In addition, the console offers four

calorie goal programs that control the speed and incline

of the treadmill to help you burn unwanted pounds.

The console also offers four heart rate programs that

control the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep

your heart rate near a target heart rate during your

workouts.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the

steps beginning on page 15. To use a preset

program, see page 17. To use a calorie goal pro-

gram, see page 18. To use a heart rate program,

see page 20.

Note: If there are sheets of clear plastic

on the console, remove the plastic.

Each program is divided into 30 or 50 one-minute

periods. One speed setting and one incline setting

are programmed for each period. Note: The same

speed setting and/or incline setting may be pro-

grammed for two or more consecutive periods.

The speed

setting for

he first pe-

riod will be

hown in the

flashing

Current

Period column of the matrix in the display. (The in-

cline settings are not shown in the matrix.) The

speed settings for the next four periods will be

shown in the columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first period

of the program, both the Current Period column

and the column to the right will flash and a series

of tones will sound. If the speed and/or incline of

the treadmill is about to change, the speed setting

and/or the incline setting will flash in the display to

alert you.

When the first period is completed,

all speed set-

tings will move one column to the left

. The speed

setting for the second period will then be shown in

the flashing Current Period column and the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the speed and in-

cline settings for the second period. Note: If all five

of the indicators in the Current Period column are

lit,

the speed settings may move downward

so that

only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.

The program will continue in this way until the

speed setting for the last period is shown in the

Current Period column and the last period ends.

The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting for the current period

is too high or too low, you can manually override

the setting by pressing the Speed or Incline but-

tons. Every few times a Speed button is pressed,

an additional

indicator will appear or disappear in

the Current Period column; if any of the columns

to the right of the Current Period column have the

same number of lit indicators as the Current

Period column, an additional indicator may appear

or disappear in those columns as well.

Important:

When the current period of the program ends,

the treadmill will automatically adjust to the

speed and incline settings for the next period.

OW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM

Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.

Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on

page 15.

Enter your weight if desired.

See step 2 on page 15.

Select a heart rate program.

To select a heart rate program, press the Heart

Rate Programs button repeatedly; “P 9,” “P10,”

“P11,” or “P12” will appear in the display for a few

seconds. A profile of the target heart rate settings

of the program will scroll across the matrix.

Enter a target heart rate setting.

The maxi-

mum target

heart rate

setting for

the program

will appear in

the display. If

desired,

press the

Rate increase and decrease buttons to change

the maximum target heart rate setting

(see EXER

CISE INTENSITY on page 26). Note: If the maxi-

mum target heart rate setting is changed, the in-

tensity level of the entire program will change.

Measure your heart rate.

You do not need to hold the handgrip pulse sen-

sors continuously; however, you must hold the

pulse sensors frequently for the heart rate pro-

ram to work properly.

See step 7 on page 16.

Press the Start button to start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and

incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails

and begin walking.

The target

heart rate

setting for

the first pe-

riod will be

shown in the

flashing

Current Period column of the matrix. The target

heart rate settings for the next several periods will

be shown in the columns to the right. When only

three seconds remain in the first period, both the

Current Period column and the column to the right

will flash and a series of tones will sound. In addi-

tion, the speed setting and the incline setting will

flash in the displays to alert you. When the first

period ends,

all target heart rate settings will move

one column to the left.

The target heart rate set-

ting for the second period will then be shown in

the flashing Current Period column.

The console will regularly compare your heart rate

to the current target heart rate setting. If your

heart rate is too far below or above the target

heart rate setting, the speed of the walking belt

will automatically increase or decrease to bring

your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set

ting. If the speed of the walking belt reaches 12

Km/H and your heart rate is still too far below the

target heart rate setting, the incline of the treadmill

will also increase.

CAUTION: If you have heart prob-

lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and

have been inactive, do not use the heart rate

programs. If you are taking medication regu-

larly, consult your physician to find whether

the medication will affect your exercise heart

rate.
