WARNING

Connect this exercise product to a properly grounded outlet only. See grounding instructions.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If a treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

WARNING

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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 below. A temporary adapter such as the one illustrated below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet 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.

The key to reaping these benefits is to develop an exercise habit. Your new treadmill will help you eliminate obstacles that prevent you from exercising. Inclement weather and darkness won't interfere with your workout when you use your treadmill in the comfort of your home. This guide provides you with basic information for using and enjoying your new machine.

LOCATION OF THE TREADMILL

Place the treadmill on a level surface. There should be 6 feet of clearance behind the treadmill, 3 feet on each side and one foot in front for folding and the power cord.

WARNING

DO NOT STAND ON THE BELT

While you are preparing to use the treadmill, do not stand on the belt.

Place your feet on the side rails before starting the treadmill. Start walking on the belt only after the belt has begun to move. Never start the treadmill at a fast running speed and attempt to jump on!

6 feet

SAFETY KEY

Your treadmill will not start unless the safety key is placed in position. Attach the clip end securely to your clothing. This safety key is designed to cut the power to the treadmill if you should fall. Check the operation of the safety key every 2 weeks.

WARNING

NEVER USE THE TREADMILL WITHOUT SECURING THE SAFETY KEY CLIP TO YOUR

CLOTHING. PULL ON THE SAFETY KEY CLIP FIRST TO MAKE SURE IT WILL NOT

COME OFF YOUR CLOTHING.

PROPER USAGE

Your treadmill is capable of reaching high speeds. Always start off using a slower speed and adjust the speed in small increments to reach a higher speed level. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. When not in use, remove the safety key, turn the on/off switch to off and unplug the power cord. Make sure to follow the

MAINTENANCE schedule located on page 33 in this manual. Never step onto the treadmill when it is moving more than 0.5 mph. Keep your body and head facing forward. Do not attempt to turn around or look backwards while the treadmill is running. Stop your workout immediately if you feel pain, faint, dizzy or are short of breath.

WARNING

Do not operate the treadmill if the power cord or plug is damaged.

If the treadmill appears to not be working properly, do not use the treadmill.

FOLDING

TENSIONING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt has been properly adjusted at the factory before it was shipped. At times the belt can move off-center during shipment.

CAUTION: Running belt should NOT be moving during tensioning. Over-tightening the running belt can cause excessive wear on the treadmill as well as its components. Never over-tighten the belt.

If you can feel a slipping sensation when running on the treadmill, the running belt must be tightened. In most cases, the belt has stretched from use, causing the belt to slip. This is a normal and common adjustment. To eliminate this slipping, turn the treadmill off and tension

BOTH THE REAR ROLLER BOLTS using the supplied Allen wrench, turning them 1/4 TURN to the right as shown.

Turn the treadmill on and check for slipping. Repeat if necessary, but NEVER TURN the roller bolts more than

1/4 turn at a time. Belt is properly tensioned when the slipping sensation is gone.

Belt is too far to the right side

Belt is too far to the left side

CENTERING THE RUNNING BELT

The running belt has been properly adjusted at the factory before it was shipped. At times the belt can move off-center during shipment. Before operating the treadmill, make sure the belt is centered and remains centered to maintain smooth operation.

CAUTION: Do not run belt faster than 1/2 mph while centering. Keep fingers, hair and clothing away from belt at all times.

If the running belt is too far to the right side:

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right adjustment bolt clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time (using the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt alignment.

Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more adjustment is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains centered during use.

If the running belt is too far to the left side:

With the treadmill running at 1/2 mph, turn the right adjustment bolt counter-clockwise 1/4 TURN at a time

(using the supplied Allen wrench). Check the belt alignment. Allow belt to run a full cycle to gauge if more adjustment is needed. Repeat if necessary, until the belt remains centered during use.

PROGRAM INFORMATION

��

��

Your treadmill comes with a wireless pedometer and programming specifically designed to help you reach your daily step goals. In order to reach your goals, it is recommended that you follow these steps.

• Choose a daily step count goal between 1,000 and 10,000 steps

• Wear your wireless pedometer throughout the day to record your steps.

• At the end of the day, transmit your accumulated steps to the treadmill.

• The treadmill will automatically adjust your workout to account for the steps you have accumulated.

For example... if you have a goal of walking 5,000 steps per day and you log 1,000 steps throughout the day, the treadmill will automatically adjust your step count so you will only have to walk 4,000 more steps

NOTE: If you do not use the wireless pedometer with the treadmill, the program segments will automatically advance every minute and will not display your step count.

TROUBLESHOOTING

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

The battery in your pedometer can be expected to last six months for someone who walks 10,000 steps per day. Results may vary depending on usage. Your pedometer uses one (1)

Lithium CR1225 battery. Should your display become faint or the transmitter signal only picks up at a very short distance, it may be time to replace the battery.

Note: Battery replacement is the responsibility of the customer and is not covered under Horizon Fitness’ Limited Home Use

Warranty.

NO DISPLAY

• The LCD display is designed to be used in temperatures between 32 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit (0-40 degrees

Centigrade). If the pedometer is being used outside of this range, return to room temperature to restore operation.

• Avoid placing the LCD in direct sunlight for long periods of time. Return to room temperature to restore operation.

• The pedometer may be in Sleep Mode. Press the SEND button to turn on pedometer.

• The battery needs to be replaced. Your pedometer uses one (1)

Lithium CR1225 battery.

ERRATIC OR INCONSISTENT DISPLAY

• The pedometer may not be positioned correctly on your body.

See ‘Positioning Pedometer’ in Section 1 for details.

• The battery needs to be replaced. Your pedometer uses one

(1) Lithium CR1225 battery.

• If the treadmill display is erratic: Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as ﬂuorescent lights, computers, underground fencing, home security systems or appliances containing large motors. These items may cause interference between the pedometer and the receiver on the treadmill.

INACCURATE STEP COUNT

• For the most accurate step count readings, you must walk at a speed over 2.0 mph. The average walking speed is 2-4 mph.

• If you believe your step count is innacurate, do the following:

Walk and count 100 steps. Compare your count to the pedometer’s. If the pedometer’s count is less than yours, increase the sensitivity setting. If the pedometer’s count is more than yours, decrease the sensitivity setting. (See

Settings, P-5 to change the sensitivity setting.)


ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE BEGINNING AN EXERCISE PROGRAM.

HOW OFTEN? (Frequency of Workouts)

The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to maintain cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether it’s 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate goal should be to make exercise a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness program if they set aside a specific time of day to exercise. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in the morning before breakfast, during lunch hour or while watching the evening news. What’s more important is that it’s a time that allows you to keep a schedule, and a time when you won’t be interrupted. To be successful with your fitness program, you have to make it a priority in your life. So decide on a time, pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next month!

HOW LONG? (Duration of Workouts)

While conventional wisdom has encouraged us to keep our heart rates up for thirty minutes, new findings suggest that we should instead be counting the number of steps we take each day. And what is the magic number? 10,000. Studies have shown that counting steps is more motivational and in turn more effective when reaching your workout goals. But start slowly and gradually increase your step count. Your body will need time to adjust to the new activity.

HOW HARD? (Intensity of Workouts)

How hard you workout is also determined by your goals. If you use your treadmill to prepare for a 5K run, you will probably work out at a higher intensity than if your goal is general fitness. Regardless of your long term goals, always begin an exercise program at low intensity. Aerobic exercise does not have to be painful to be beneficial!

There are two ways to measure your exercise intensity. The first is by monitoring your heart rate (using the grip pulse handlebars or a wireless chest transmitter - may be sold separately), and the second is by evaluating your perceived exertion level (this is simpler than it sounds!).

PERCEIVED EXERTION LEVEL

A simple way to gauge your exercise intensity is to evaluate your perceived exertion level. While exercising, if you are too winded to maintain a conversation without gasping, you are working out too hard. A good rule of thumb is to work to the point of exhilaration, not exhaustion. If you cannot catch your breath, it’s time to slow down.

Always be aware of these warning signs of overexertion.

TARGET HEART RATE ZONE CHART

What is Target Heart Rate Zone?

Target Heart Rate Zone tells you the number of times per minute your heart needs to beat to achieve a desired workout effect.

It is represented as a percentage of the maximum number of times your heart can beat per minute.

Target Zone will vary for each individual, depending on age, current level of conditioning, and personal fitness goals. The

American Heart Association recommends working-out at a

Target Heart Rate Zone of between

60% and 75% of your maximum heart rate. A beginner will want to workout in the 60% range while a more experienced exerciser will want to workout in the 70-75% range. See chart for reference.

ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE BEGINNING AN EXERCISE PROGRAM.

STRETCHING

STRETCH FIRST

Before using your product, it is best to take a few minutes to do a few gentle stretching exercises. Stretching prior to exercise will improve flexibility and reduce chances of exercise related injury. Ease into each of these stretches with a slow gentle motion. Do not stretch to the point of pain. Make sure not to bounce while doing these stretches.

1. STANDING CALVE MUSCLE STRETCH

Stand near a wall with the toes of your left foot about 18" from the wall, and the right foot about 12" behind the other foot. Lean forward, pushing against the wall with your palms. Keep your heels flat and hold this position for a count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching.

Repeat on the other side.

2. STANDING QUADRICEPS STRETCH

Using a wall to provide balance, grasp your left ankle with your left hand and hold your foot against the back of your thigh for 15 seconds. Repeat with your right ankle and hand.

3. SITTING HAMSTRING & LOWER BACK MUSCLE STRETCH

Sit on the floor with your legs together and straight out in front of you. Do not lock your knees. Extend your fingers towards your toes and hold for a count of 15 seconds. Make sure that you do not bounce while stretching. Sit upright again. Repeat one time.

TIPS

THE IMPORTANCE OF WARM UP & COOL DOWN

WARM UP

The first 2 to 5 minutes of a workout should be devoted to warming up. The warm-up will limber your muscles and prepare them for more strenuous exercise. Make sure that you warm-up on your product at a slow pace. The warm up should gradually bring your heart rate into your Target Heart Rate Zone.

COOL DOWN

Never stop exercising suddenly! A cool-down period of 3-5 minutes allows your heart to readjust to the decreased demand. Make sure that your cool down period consists of a very slow pace to allow your heart rate to lower. After the cool-down, repeat the stretching exercises listed above to loosen and relax your muscles.

TIPS

ACHIEVING YOUR FITNESS GOALS

An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your primary goal for exercising to lose weight? Improve muscle? Reduce stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule?

Knowing what your goals are will help you develop a more successful exercise program. Below are some common exercise goals:

• Weight Loss - lower intensity, longer duration workouts

• Improve Body Shape and Tone - interval workouts, alternate between hi and low intensities

• Increased Energy Level - more frequent daily workouts

• Improved Sports Performance - high intensity workouts

• Improved Cardiovascular Endurance - moderate intensity, longer duration workouts

If possible try to define your personal goals in precise, measurable terms, and then put your goals in writing.

The more specific you can be, the easier it will be to track your progress. If your goals are long term, divide them up into monthly and weekly segments. Longer term goals can lose some of the immediate motivation benefits. Short term goals are easier to achieve. Your console provides you with several readouts that can be used to record your progress. You can track Distance, Calories or Time.

KEEPING AN EXERCISE DIARY

To make your personal exercise log book, photocopy the weekly and monthly log sheets, which are located on the following pages, or you can print them off of your computer by going to:

COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS

ARE THE SOUNDS MY TREADMILL MAKES NORMAL?

All treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt riding over the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although may not totally go away. Over time, the belt will stretch, causing the belt to ride smoother over the rollers.

WHY IS THE TREADMILL I PURCHASED LOUDER THAN THE ONE AT THE STORE?

All fitness products seem quieter in a large store showroom because there is generally more background noise than in your home. Also, there will be less reverberation on a carpeted concrete floor than on a wood overlay floor.

Sometimes a heavy rubber mat will help reduce reverberation through the floor. If a fitness product is placed close to a wall, there will be more reflected noise.

WHEN SHOULD I BE WORRIED ABOUT A NOISE?

As long as the sounds your treadmill makes are no louder than a normal conversational tone of voice, it is considered normal noise.

TROUBLESHOOTING - TREADMILL

Your treadmill is designed to be reliable and easy to use. However, if you experience a problem, please reference the troubleshooting guide listed below.

T

LIF

PROBLEM:

The banding straps were removed before ASSEMBLY STEP 1 was complete and the machine has sprung open and cannot be assembled.

SOLUTION:

The air shocks have been engaged prematurely. To correct this, tilt the machine on it’s nose by lifting the deck (light end) upwards. Step on the foot latch and fold down the deck so that it is horizontal. You may now proceed with ASSEMBLY STEP 1.

PROBLEM:

The console does not light up.

SOLUTION:

Verify the following:

IF YES:

DOES THE RED LIGHT ON THE ON/OFF SWITCH LIGHT UP?

• Double check that all connections are secure, especially the console cable. Unplug and reconnect the console cable to verify.

• Make sure the console cable is not pinched or damaged in any way.

• Turn the power off and wait 60 seconds. Remove motor cover. Wait until all red LED lights have gone off on the motor control board before proceeding. Next, verify that no wires are loose or disconnected.

IF NO:

• Verify that the outlet the machine is plugged into is functional. Double check that the breaker has not tripped, it is on a dedicated 20-amp circuit, it is not on a GFCI-equipped outlet, and it is not plugged into a surge protector or extension cord.

• The power cord is not pinched or damaged and is properly plugged into the outlet AND the machine.

• The power switch is turned to the ON position.

PROBLEM:

The treadmill circuit breaker trips during a workout.

SOLUTION:


• Make sure the treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit.

• Verify that you do not have the machine on an extension cord or surge protector.

• Confirm that the machine is not plugged into a GFCI-equipped outlet or on a circuit that has a GFCI-equipped outlet on it.

PROBLEM:

The treadmill shuts off when elevating.

SOLUTION:


• Make sure there is enough slack in the power cord to reach to the wall during elevation

• Verify that the console cable is not pinched between the handlebars and console mast.

• Turn the power off and wait 60 seconds. Remove motor cover. Wait until all red LED lights have gone off on the motor control board before proceeding. Next, verify that no wires are loose or disconnected.

PROBLEM:

The running belt does not stay centered during a workout.

SOLUTION:


• Make sure the treadmill is on a level surface.

• Verify that the belt is properly tightened and centered (Refer to the Adjustment section for detailed directions).

TROUBLESHOOTING - HEART RATE

Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as fluorescent lights, computers, underground fencing, home security systems or appliances containing large motors. These items may cause erratic heart rate readouts.

You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:

• Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars.

• Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate handlebars while exercising. If you are receiving erratic heart rate readouts, try to only hold the grips long enough to monitor your heart rate.

• When you are breathing heavily during a workout.

• When your hands are constricted by wearing a ring.

• When your hands are dry or cold. Try to moisten your palms by rubbing them together to warm.

• Anyone with heavy arrhythmia.

• Anyone with arteriosclerosis or peripheral circulation disorder.

• Anyone whose skin on the measuring palm is especially thick.

If the above troubleshooting section does not remedy the problem, discontinue use and turn the power off.

PLEASE CALL CUSTOMER TECH SUPPORT AT THE NUMBER ON THE BACK PANEL.

The following information may be asked of you when you call. Please have these items readily available:

• Model Name

• Serial Number

• Date of Purchase (receipt or credit card statement)

In order for Horizon Fitness to service your treadmill they may need to ask detailed questions about the symptoms that are occurring. Some troubleshooting questions that may be asked are:

• How long has this problem been occurring?

• Does this problem occur with every use? With every user?

• If you are hearing a noise, does it come from the front or the back? What kind of noise is it (thumping, grinding, squeaking, chirping etc.)?

• Has the machine been lubricated and maintained per the maintenance schedule?

Answering these and other questions will give the technicians the ability to send proper replacement parts and the service necessary to get you and your Horizon treadmill running again!

MAINTENANCE

Cleanliness of your treadmill and its operation environment will keep maintenance problems and service calls to a minimum. For this reason, we recommend that the following preventive maintenance schedule be followed.

AFTER EACH USE (DAILY)

Clean and inspect, following these steps:

• Turn off the treadmill with the on/off switch, then unplug the power cord at the wall outlet.

• Wipe down the running belt, deck, motor cover, and console casing with a damp cloth. Never use solvents, as they can cause damage to the treadmill.

• Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact Horizon Fitness.

• Make sure the power cord is not underneath the treadmill or in any other area where it can become pinched or cut.

• Check the tension and alignment of the running belt. Make sure that the treadmill belt will not damage any other components on the treadmill by being misaligned.

EVERY WEEK

Clean underneath the treadmill, following these steps:


• Fold the treadmill into the upright position, making sure that the lock latch is secure.

• Move the treadmill to a remote location.

• Wipe or vacuum any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated underneath the treadmill.

• Return the treadmill to its previous position.

EVERY MONTH - IMPORTANT!


• Inspect all assembly bolts of the machine for proper tightness.

• Turn off the treadmill and wait 60 seconds.

• Remove the motor cover. Wait until ALL LED lights turn off.

• Clean the motor and lower board area to eliminate any lint or dust particles that may have accumulated.

Failure to do so may result in premature failure of key electrical components.

EVERY 6 MONTHS

It may be necessary to lubricate your treadmill running deck every six months to maintain optimal performance of your treadmill. Only use lubricant provided by Horizon Fitness! Please contact Horizon

Fitness with questions about applying lubricant to your treadmill.


• Loosen both the rear roller bolts. (For best results, place two removable marks on both sides of the frame and note roller position). Once the belt is loosened, take the bottle of lubricant and apply it to the entire top surface of the running deck. Tighten both rear roller bolts (matching up the marks for proper position) to original position. After you have applied lubricant, plug in the power cord, insert the safety key, start the treadmill and walk on the belt for two minutes to spread the lubricant.

• Lubricate the air shocks with teflon based spray.
