IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the

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 in this
manual.

3. This treadmill is intended for in-home use
only. Do not use this treadmill in a commer­cial, rental, or institutional setting.

4. 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 a surface that blocks any air
openings. To protect the floor or carpet from
damage, place a mat under the treadmill.

5. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois­ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.

6. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.

7. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.

8. The treadmill should be used only by persons
weighing 115 kg (250 lbs.) or less.

9. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.

Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

10.
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.

shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

11. When connecting the power cord (see page

11), 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.

Always wear athletic

13. Keep the power cord away from heated sur­faces.

14. 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

BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the tread­mill is not working properly.)

15. Never start the treadmill whilst you are stand­ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails whilst using the treadmill.

16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.

17. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user's move­ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids in determining heart
rate trends in general.

18. Do not use the hand weights at speeds faster
than walking speeds. Using weights and not
holding the handrails may compromise your
ability to maintain your balance. Exercises
using weights should be attempted only by
experienced users.

19. Never leave the treadmill unattended whilst it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord, and move the on/off switch to

HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR

HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR

The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
the chest strap and the sensor unit (see the drawing
below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into
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

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.

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.

Sensor

Unit

Buckle

• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.

• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time; do not expose
it to temperatures above 50° C (122° F) or below

-10° C (14° 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.

• 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, re-wet the electrode areas.

• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position your­self near the centre of the walking belt.

console to display heart rate readings, the user
must be within arm’s length of the console.

• 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.

For the

CHEST PULSE SENSOR

• 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 nec
essary, draining the battery prematurely.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• 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).
