Cybex 445T Treadmill Owner’s Manual
1 - Safety
IMPORTANT: Read all instructions and warnings before using the treadmill.
Important Voltage Information
Before plugging the power cord into an electrical outlet, verify that the voltage requirements
for your area match the voltage of the treadmill that you have received. The power
requirements for the Cybex 445T treadmill include a grounded, dedicated circuit, rated for
one of the following: 115 VAC ±5%, 60 Hz and 20 amps; 220 VAC, 60 Hz and 12 amps
or 230 VAC ±5%, 50 Hz and 12 amps. See the serial number decal for the exact voltage
requirements of your treadmill.
! WARNING: Do not attempt to use this unit with a voltage adapter. Do not attempt to
use this unit with an extension cord.
! WARNING: Do not plug more than one unit into a single circuit.
Grounding Instructions
This treadmill 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.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
! DANGER:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service provider if you are in doubt
as to whether the treadmill is properly grounded. Seek a qualified electrician to perform
any modifications to the cord or plug. Cybex is not responsible for injuries or damages
as a result of cord or plug modification.
This treadmill is for use on a nominal 115
VAC ±5%, 60 Hz and 20 amps, 220 VAC; 60
Hz, 12 amps or 230 VAC ±5%, 50 Hz and
12 amps and a grounded, dedicated circuit.
Make sure that the treadmill is connected to
an outlet having the same configuration as
the plug. Do not use a ground plug adapter
to adapt the power cord to a non-grounded
outlet.

Data Readouts
As you exercise, the treadmill keeps track of the following data:
Distance — The total accumulated distance, in miles or kilometers,
during your workout. NOTE: Depending on the defaults you’ve chosen this
measurement will show in English or Metric.
Calories — The total accumulated calories burned during your workout.
Your weight must be correctly set before beginning your workout for this
measurement to be most accurate.
Calories Per Hour - Calculation of present workload’s energy exertion in
Calories per Hour.
Metabolic Equivalent — Relates to the user’s energy expenditure. A MET is
a basic unit of measurement that is used to compare relative work between
individuals and activities. ‘One MET’ is the amount of oxygen consumed at
rest. For example two METs would be twice that amount. If an individual were
working at four METs he/she would be consuming oxygen at a rate equal to
four times their resting consumption. METs can be used to compare walking
on a grade with running or even to cycling and other activities.
Pace — At your current speed, how long it would take to cover a mile (or
kilometer), displayed in minutes:seconds.
Heart Rate — Your current heart rate. Heart rate will appear when a signal
is introduced. Use the handgrips for Contact Heart Rate or wear a Polar®
compatible heart rate chest strap.
