OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with

PERFORMANT LUBE TM , a high-performance 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

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.

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.

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 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 electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having

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.

When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select a heart rate program, press the Program Select button repeatedly until one of the two heart rate program indicators lights.

The two profiles on the left side of the matrix show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. During heart rate program 1, your heart rate will reach approximately 85% of your esti-

mated maximum heart rate; during heart rate program 2, your heart rate will reach approximately

80% of your estimated maximum heart rate.

Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute

(220 – 30 = 190).

13

During heart rate programs, the matrix will show a graphic that represents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear.

button to

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.

Each heart rate program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment.

During each segment, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the speed of the treadmill 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 4 at the left) and your heart rate is still 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 Speed display and the Distance/Incline display will flash.

The program will continue until no time remains in the program. 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 current 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 Calories/

Pulse display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the optional chest pulse sensor.

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.

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE

The console features an information mode that keeps track of the total number of hours that the treadmill has been operated and the total number of miles that the walking belt has moved. The information mode also allows you to switch the console from miles per hour to kilometers per hour. In addition, the information mode allows you to turn on and turn off the demo mode.

To select the information mode, hold down the Stop button while inserting the key into the console. When the information mode is selected, the following information will be shown:

The Distance/Incline display will show the total number of miles (or kilometers) that the walking belt has moved.

THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

An optional chest pulse sensor adds even more features to the console. The chest pulse sensor provides hands-free operation and allows the console’s heart rate programs to be used.

To purchase the optional chest pulse sensor, call toll-free 1-888-533-1333.

The Time/Pace display will show the total number of hours the treadmill has been used.

HOW TO LEVEL THE TREADMILL

If the treadmill wheels are touching the floor or if the treadmill rocks slightly, turn one or both of the leveling feet under the upright base until the wheels are off the floor and the rocking motion is eliminated. Note: If necessary, tip the treadmill and use a phillips screwdriver to turn the leveling feet.

An “E” for English miles or an “M” for metric kilometers will appear in the Speed display. Press the Speed s button to change the unit of measurement.

IMPORTANT: The

Calories/Pulse display

should be blank. If a “d” appears in the display, the console is in the “demo” mode.

This mode is intended to be used only when a treadmill is displayed in a store.

When the console is in the demo mode, the power cord can be plugged in, the key can be removed from the console, and the displays and indicators on the console will automatically light in a preset sequence, although the buttons on the console will not operate.

If a “d” appears in the Calories/Pulse display when the information mode is selected, press the Speed

t

button so the display is blank.

To exit the information mode, remove the key from the console.
