TREADMILL OPERATION
THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with highperformance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor, and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

Surge Suppressor
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indicate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change speed, accelerate or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
Lug
Metal Screw
The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of features designed to help you get the most from your workouts.
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 handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 24).
In addition, the console offers 6 preset programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout. You can even create custom workout programs and store them in memory for future use.
Two heart rate programs are also offered. Each program automatically adjusts the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate while you exercise. Note: The heart rate programs require the use of the optional chest pulse sensor.
The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer in your home. Using the included audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com
CDs and videocassettes are available separately).
iFIT.com CD and video programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer guides you through every step of your workout.
High-energy music provides added motivation. To purchase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, call the tollfree telephone number on the front cover of this manual.

Note: When a program is selected, this display will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time. Each time the incline of the treadmill changes, the display will show the incline setting for several seconds.
Training Zone Bar Track
The left display will also show a training zone bar that indicates the approximate intensity of your exercise. For example, if four to six segments of the bar appear, the bar shows that your exercise intensity is ideal for weight loss.
When the manual mode or the iFIT.com mode is selected, the left display will also show a track. As you exercise, the indicators around the track will light, one at a time, until the entire track is lit. The track will then disappear and a new lap will begin.
11
The right display—This display will show the distance that you have walked or run, the number of
1/4-mile laps you have completed, the speed of the walking belt, and the approximate numbers of
calories and fat calories you have burned (see
FAT BURNING on page 29). Note: For a more accurate reading on the number of calories burned, enter your weight by pressing the + and – buttons beside the Enter button. When your weight is shown, press the Enter button. Your weight will be saved in memory.
The right display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. In addition, during heart rate programs the right display will show a heart rate bar that shows your heart rate as a percentage of your estimated maximum heart rate
(see step 3 on page 17 for an explanation of your estimated maximum heart rate). For example, if four to six segments of the bar appear, your heart rate is between 60% and 70% of your estimated maximum heart rate.
Heart Rate Bar
Note: The console can display speed and distance in either miles or kilometers. The letters
“MPH” or “Km/H” will appear in the right display to show which unit of measurement is selected. To change the unit of measurement, see THE IN-
FORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE on page 24.
For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.
To reset the displays, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.
6 Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and the optional chest pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately. Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the clear plastic film
Contacts from the metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor. In addition, make sure that your hands are clean.
To use the handgrip pulse sensor, stand on the
foot rails and hold the pulse sensor with your palms resting on the metal contacts; avoid mov-
ing your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the right display will flash each time your heart beats, one or two dashes (– –) will appear, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

Current Segment
Column the next seven segments will be shown in the columns at the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first segment of the program, both the Current Segment 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 left display and/or the right display will flash to alert you. When the first segment ends, all speed set-
tings in the matrix will move one column to the left.
The speed setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the second segment.
Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit after the speed settings have moved to the left, the speed settings may move downward so that only the highest indicators appear in the matrix. If some indicators in the Current Segment column are not lit when the speed settings move to the left again, the speed settings will move back up.
The program will continue in this way until the speed setting for the last segment is shown in the
Current Segment column and the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed or
Incline buttons. Every few times a Speed button is pressed, an additional indicator will appear or disappear in the Current Segment column. (If any of the columns to the right of the Current Segment column have the same number of indicators as the
Current Segment column, an additional indicator may appear or disappear in those columns as well.) Note: When the next segment of the program begins, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the next segment.

7 Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
During heart rate programs, the matrix in the left display will show a heart beat symbol.
Each time a heart beat is detected, a peak will appear.
Each heart rate program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment. Note: If the Self
Select program is selected, the same target heart rate is programmed for all segments.
During each segment, the console will compare your heart rate to the target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed of the walking belt will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the speed reaches the maximum speed setting of the program (see step 5 on page 17) and your heart rate is too far below the current target heart rate, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
During the last three seconds of each segment, a series of tones will sound and the incline setting and the speed setting will flash in the two displays.
The program will continue until the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low at any time during the program, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the right display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING:
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the speed or incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed or incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone.
Aerobic Exercise
The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise, adjust the speed or incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never hold your breath.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above your age. The three numbers define your “training zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes does your body
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
1 Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
