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

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.

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.

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).

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is

CUL 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 an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

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.

CAUTION:

Before operating the console, read the following precautions.

• Do not stand on the walking belt when turning on the power.

• Always wear the clip (see the drawing above) while operating the treadmill.

• Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

• To reduce the possibility of electric shock, keep the console dry. Avoid spilling liquids on the console and place only a sealed water bottle in the water bottle holder.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an impressive array of features to help you get the most from your exercise.

When the manual mode of the console is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a 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 handgrip pulse sensor. Note: See page 20 for information about an optional chest pulse sensor.

Four certified personal trainer programs are also offered. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill to give you an effective workout. Two heart rate programs are also featured. Each program controls the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target level during your workouts.

The console also features new iFIT.com interactive 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 (available separately).

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 (videocassettes are available separately). 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 Web site at www.iFIT.com and access basic programs, audio programs, and video programs directly from the internet. Additional options are soon to be available. See www.iFIT.com for details.

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/Incline/

Segment Time display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment. One speed setting and one incline setting are programmed for each segment.

(The same speed setting and/or incline setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.) The speed setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current

Segment column of the program display. (The incline settings are not shown in the program display.) The speed settings for the next four segments will be shown in the four columns to the right.

Current Segment

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 tone will sound. In addition, if the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the

Speed/Min-Mile display and/or the Time/Incline/

Segment Time display will flash to alert you, and three tones will sound. When the first segment is completed, all speed settings will move one col-

umn 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.

The program will continue in this way until the speed setting for the last segment is shown in the

Current Segment column and no time remains in the Time/Incline/Segment Time display. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

Note: Each time a segment ends and the speed settings move one column to the left, if all of the

indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings will move downward so that only the highest indicators in the columns will appear in

the program display. When the speed settings move to the left again and not all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings will move back up.

If the speed or incline setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed or

Incline buttons. Every few times one of the Speed buttons is pressed, an additional indicator will light or darken in the Current Segment column. If any of the columns to the right of the Current Segment column have the same number of lit indicators as the Current Segment column, an additional indicator may light or darken in those columns as well.

Important: When the current segment of the program ends, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the next segment.

Select a heart rate program.


To select one of the heart rate programs, press the Program button repeatedly until one of the two heart rate program indicators lights.

The two profiles on the left side of the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. The numbers above the profiles represent percentages of your estimated maxi-

mum heart rate. (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]. If you are 30 years old, a target heart rate setting of 50% is equal to 95 beats per minute [50% of 190 is 95].)

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

4

Enter your age.

When a heart rate program is selected, the letters AGE and the current age setting will begin to flash in the Calories/ Fat

Calories/Heart Rate display. You must enter your age to use a heart rate program. If you have already entered your age, go to step 5. If you have not entered your age, press the Incline (Age Set) buttons until your age is shown. Your age will then be saved in memory.

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 heart rate program is divided into one-minute segments. The Time/Incline/Segment Time display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment of the program. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. (The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.)

When only three seconds remain in the first oneminute segment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the Time/Incline/Segment Time display and the Speed/Min-Mile display will flash.

The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will then change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting for the next segment.

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 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.

If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters PLS will flash in the Calories/Fat

Calories/Heart Rate display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, refer to the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs should not 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 Time/Incline/Segment

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

THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

An optional chest pulse sensor adds even more features to the console. The chest pulse sensor offers hands-free operation, and enables you to use the console’s two heart rate programs. To purchase the

chest pulse sensor, please call our Customer

Service Department at 1-888-936-4266.

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

An “E” for english miles or an

“M” for metric kilometers will appear in the Speed/Min-Mile display. Press the Speed ▲ button to change the unit of measurement.

IMPORTANT: The Calories/

Fat Calories/Heart Rate dis-

play 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” ap-

pears in the Calories/Fat Calories/Heart Rate display when the information mode is selected, press the

button so the display is blank.

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