IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: T
following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of this treadmill are adequately
informed of all warnings and precautions.
2. Use the treadmill only as described.
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least 2.5 m (8 ft.) of clearance behind it and
0.5 m (2 ft.) on each side. Do not place the
treadmill on any surface that blocks air openings. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.
o reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the
faces.
13. Never move the walking belt whilst the power
is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the
treadmill is not working properly. (See TROUBLESHOOTING on page 26 if the treadmill is
not working properly.)
14. Never start the treadmill whilst you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails whilst using the treadmill.
15. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.
16. Never leave the treadmill unattended whilst it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord, and move the on/off switch to
the off position when the treadmill is not in
use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the location of the on/off switch.)
7. The treadmill should be used only by persons
weighing 135 kg (300 lbs.) or less.
8. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.
Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes
that could become caught in the treadmill.
Athletic support clothes are recommended for
both men and women.
Always wear athletic
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.
10. When connecting the power cord (see page
10), plug the power cord into an earthed circuit. No other appliance should be on the
same circuit. When replacing the fuse, an
ASTA approved BS1362 type should be fitted to
the fuse carrier. A 13 amp fuse should be used.
11. If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3conductor, 1mm
longer than 1.5 m (5 ft.).

You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.) to
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
18. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the storage latch is fully closed.
19. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user’s movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The sensors are intended only as ex
ercise aids in determining heart rate trends in
general.
20. When using iFIT.com programs, an electronic
“chirping” sound will alert you when the
speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about
to change. Always listen for the “chirp” and
be prepared for speed and/or incline changes.
In some instances, the speed and/or incline
may change before the personal trainer describes the change.

A
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is
coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the
top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild,
non-abrasive cleaner.
Assembly requires the included hex keys and your own phillips screwdriver and
wire cutters .
Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST on pages 30 and 31. The number after the parentheses shows
the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it is preattached to
one of the parts to be assembled.
1. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.
With the help of a second person, carefully raise the
Uprights (97) to the position shown. Insert one of the
Extension Legs (115) into the base of the right Upright.
(Note: It may be helpful to tip the Uprights forward as
you insert the Extension Leg.) Make sure that the

HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
OW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
H
he chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
T
the chest strap and the sensor unit (see the drawing
below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into
the hole in one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the
inset drawing. Press the end of the sensor unit under
the buckle on the chest strap. The tab should be flush
with the front of the sensor unit.
Chest Strap
Tabs
Tab
Sensor Unit
Next, wrap the chest
pulse sensor around
your chest and attach
the other end of the
chest strap to the
sensor unit. Adjust
the length of the
chest strap, if necessary. The chest pulse
sensor should be under your clothes, tight against your
skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or
breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on
the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.
Sensor
Unit
Buckle
Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
•
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
r other container that may trap moisture.
o
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct sun-
ight for extended periods of time; do not expose it to
l
temperatures above 50° C (120° F) or below -10° C
(15° F).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.
• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
strap may be hand washed and air dried.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
The instructions on the following pages explain
how the chest pulse sensor is used with the console. If the chest pulse sensor does not function
properly, try the steps below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sensor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulse
sensor does not function when positioned as described, move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor
unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you
begin perspiring, rewet the electrode areas.
• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position yourself near the centre of the walking belt. For the con-
sole to display heart rate readings, the user must
be within arm’s length of the console.
Next, pull the sensor unit away from your body a few
inches and locate the two electrode areas on the inner
side (the electrode areas are covered by shallow
ridges). Using saline solution such as saliva or contact
lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the
sensor unit to a position against your chest.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each
use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate
monitor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off
when it is removed and the electrode areas are
dried. If the chest pulse sensor is not dried after
each use, it may remain activated longer than necessary, draining the battery prematurely.
The chest pulse sensor is designed to work with
•
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical conditions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.
• The CR2032 battery may need to be replaced (see
page 28).

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

measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip
pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
In addition, the console features five speed & incline
programs that control the speed and incline of the
treadmill as they guide you through effective workouts,
and five speed programs that control the speed of the
treadmill during your workouts.
The console also offers two pulse control programs that
control the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep
your heart rate near a target heart rate setting during
your workouts. In addition, a fitness test program measures your VO
