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

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.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.

Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at the right).

To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local

HealthRider dealer or call toll-free 1-800-999-3756

and order part number 146148. Use only a singleoutlet 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.

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 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.

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 selection of features to help you get the most from your exercise.

When the console is in the manual mode, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the four displays will show your workout time, the number of calories you have burned, the distance you have walked, the incline level of the treadmill, and the speed of the walking belt. The console will also show your heart rate when the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor is used.

The console also offers four preset workout programs.

Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout. If you purchase the optional chest pulse sensor, the console’s two pulse programs can also be used. Each program controls the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a preset range during your workouts.

The console also features advanced iFIT.com technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer right in your home. Using the included audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play special iFIT.com CD programs (one CD is included). IFIT.com

CD 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. Each CD features two programs designed by certified personal trainers.

In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (one videocassette is included). Video programs offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add the excitement of working out with a class and an instructor—the hottest new trend at health clubs.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can also go to our new internet site at www.iFIT.com

and access basic programs that interactively control the speed and incline of your treadmill to help you achieve your specific exercise goals. Or, use iFIT.com

Enter your age.

When a pulse program is selected, an age setting will begin to flash in the

Calories/Pulse display. If you have already entered your age, simply press the

Enter button. To enter your age, press the ▲ and ▼ buttons. The buttons can be held down to enter your age quickly. When your age is shown, press the Enter button.

5

Enter a maximum heart rate setting.

After you have entered your age, another number will begin to flash in the Calories/

Pulse display.

This number is the maximum heart rate setting for the program. If Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to

85% of your maximum possible heart rate (your maximum possible heart rate is 220 minus your age); if Pulse program 2 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to 80% of your maximum possible heart rate. Note: Your maximum possible heart rate is an estimate only.

For example, if you are 30 years old, your maximum possible heart rate is 190 (220 minus 30 equals 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from

123 to 161 (65% of 190 is 123; 85% of 190 is 161).

If you want to change the maximum heart rate setting, press the ▲ and ▼ buttons. The buttons can be held down to change the setting quickly. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button.

6

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 for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

Each program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. The Time/

Segment Time display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. When only three seconds remain in the first segment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the next segment will begin. As you exercise, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will automatically change as needed to keep your heart rate near the current target heart rate setting.

The program will continue until the Time/Segment

Time display counts down to zero. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

13

If your heart rate is not detected during the program, the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your heart rate is detected. If this happens, see the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor.

If the speed or incline setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if you decrease the speed, the incline will automatically increase; if you increase the speed, the incline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will increase. The treadmill will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the target heart rate setting for the current segment. Note:

When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest setting, the speed cannot be decreased any further.

Pulse programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To stop the program before it is completed, press a Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.
