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).
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
FCI-equipped outlets.
G
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, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec
tric 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,

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

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to make your workouts more effective.
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the
speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with
the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will
display instant exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor or
the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 25).
In addition, the console offers ten preset programs.
Each program automatically controls the speed and in
cline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout. Two heart rate programs are also offered.
Each program automatically adjusts the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a target range while you exercise. The console even allows
you to create your own programs and save them in
memory for future use. Note: The heart rate programs
require the use of the optional chest pulse sensor.
The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal trainer in your home. Using the included audio
cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home
stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and play
special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com
CDs and videocassettes are available separately).
iFIT.com CD and video 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.

CAUTION: If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and
have been inactive, do not use the heart rate
programs. If you are taking medication regu-
arly, consult your physician to find whether the
l
medication will affect your exercise heart rate.
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 25) to use a heart rate program.
Put on the optional chest pulse sensor.

the two heart rate program indicators lights.
The two profiles on the right side of the console
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
estimated maximum heart rate;
program 2, your heart rate will reach approximately 90% of your
rate.
Note: Your maximum heart rate is estimated
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).

you have already entered
your age, simply press the Start button (the program will not start when the button is pressed). If
you have not entered your age, press the increase
and decrease buttons below the Calories display
to enter your age, and then press the Start button
(the program will not start when the button is
pressed).
After you have entered
your age, the letters
“SPd” and the maximum

Speed display. If desired,
press the increase and decrease buttons below
the Speed display to adjust the maximum speed
setting.
Press the Start button to start the program.
5
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 30 oneminute segments. 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
18
Page 19
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate. If the
peed reaches the maximum speed setting of the
s
program (see step 4 on page 18) and your heart
ate is still too far below the current target heart
r
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 Incline display will flash.
The program will continue until no time remains.
The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters “PLS” will flash in the Pulse/Pace dis-
lay, and the speed and incline of the treadmill
p
may automatically decrease until your pulse is de-
ected. If this occurs, see the instructions included
t
with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program temporarily, press the Stop
button. The Time display will begin to flash. To
restart the program, press the Start button or the
Speed increase button. After a moment, the walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the
the console compares your heart rate to the current target heart rate, the speed and/or incline of
the treadmill may then automatically change.
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.
Follow your progress with the displays.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individu-
ls over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-
a
existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

y
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed or incline
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle
number in your training zone.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,
adjust the speed or incline of the treadmill until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers
above your age. The three numbers define your “train
ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended
heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the
handgrip pulse sensor.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase
the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your
training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few
weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your
pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never
hold your breath.
-
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
