1.2 S

ETUP

Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness Treadmill. Place the treadmill where it
will be used before beginning the setup procedure.

ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS

The Life Fitness Treadmill requires a dedicated* line according to the electrical configurations listed in
the chart below.

* One individual branch circuit for each treadmill per NEC article 210-21 (b) (1) and 210-23 (or other appropriate, country
specific electrical compliance guidelines). The hot, neutral and ground wires must each be routed independently (not
looped or tied to other circuits.)" .

NOTE: Do not modify the plug provided with this product. If the plug does not fit into an available
electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This Life Fitness product must be properly grounded. If the unit malfunctions or breaks down, proper
grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current, which reduces the risk of shock
to anyone touching or using the equipment. Each unit is equipped with an electrical cord, which
includes an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an
outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordi­nances.

A temporary adapter MUST NOT BE USED to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle in
North America. If a properly grounded, 20-amp outlet is not available, one must be
installed by a qualified electrician. Models drawing 16 amps or more must be installed on
a dedicated line.

IL EST ABSOLUMENT INTERDIT d'employer un adaptateur temporaire pour brancher cette
fiche sur une prise bipolaire en Amérique du Nord. Si aucune prise de 20 A correctement
mise à la terre n'est disponible, en faire installer une par un électricien qualifié. Les mod­èles utilisant 16 A ou plus doivent être branchés sur un circuit spécialisé.

DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor. Check with a qualified electrician if in doubt as to proper
grounding technique. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit
an electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Any modifica­tion to the electrical plug will result in a voided warranty.

Un branchement incorrect du conducteur de mise à la terre peut entraîner des risques de
décharge électrique. Consulter un électricien si des doutes subsistent quant à la technique de
mise à la terre. NE PAS MODIFIER la fiche fournie avec l'appareil. Si elle ne s'adapte pas à une
prise, faire installer une prise correcte par un électricien qualifié. Toute modification à la fiche
annule la garantie.

H

OW TO POSITION AND STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS TREADMILL

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move
the treadmill to the location in which it will be used. See
Section 7, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of
the footprint. Allow a distance of eight inches, or 21
centimeters, between the treadmill and other units on
either side. Allow a distance of six feet, or two meters,
from the rear of the treadmill to any object or surface.

After placing the unit where it will be used, check its
stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion or the unit is not stable, determine which stabilizing
leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen the JAM NUT (A), and turn the STABILIZING LEG (B)
until the rocking motion ceases, and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor. Retighten the JAM
NUT.

NOTE: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be correctly adjusted for proper operation. An
unbalanced unit may cause striding belt misalignment. A bubble level is recommended to ensure
proper leveling.

POWER SWITCH

Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions:
"I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.

SETTING THE CLOCK

The unit contains a clock, which is used for system maintenance and event tracking.

After the unit has been turned ON, the display will prompt for the following:

"WOULD YOU LIKE TO CHANGE THE CLOCK FROM GMT TO LOCAL TIME - IF YES PRESS
ENTER - IF NO PRESS CLEAR"

If the clock setting has not been set, follow the instructions below to properly set the clock. To accept
the current settings, press the CLEAR key.

To change the setting, press the ENTER key. The MESSAGE CENTER displays: "CHOOSE CLOCK
DISPLAY MODE BY USING ARROW KEYS". Use an ARROW key to toggle the settings between "24
HOUR MODE" or "12 HOUR MODE AM/PM". To accept the mode, press the ENTER key.

The current time will be displayed in Greenwich Mean Time.

• Use the TIME arrows to change the hours

• Use the INCLINE arrows to change the minutes

• Use the SPEED arrows to change the seconds

When finished press the ENTER key. The MESSAGE CENTER displays "UPDATING CLOCK". After
the clock has been updated the message center displays "CLOCK SET TO LOCAL".

At this point, the clock has been reset, and the normal startup procedure continues.

†

This prompt appears for the first five times that the unit is turned on, including power-ups at the

factory.

12

If the clock setting is incorrect, follow the instructions below to change the clock setting.

To enter the Clock's configuration, press and hold down the PAUSE key and press the CLEAR key
twice. Continue to hold down the PAUSE key until the MESSAGE CENTER displays the words "SER­VICE MENU". Then, release the PAUSE key and press the QUICK START key. The MESSAGE
CENTER then displays "MANAGER CONFIG". Press the TIME down arrow key once - message cen­ter displays "CLOCK CONFIGURATION". Press the Enter key to access the CLOCK CONFIG
MENU.

Use arrow keys to select an item you want to change. You can select the following:

• Set Day

• Set Date

• Set Time

Press ENTER on the item you want to change. Use the arrow keys to change the item and then

press ENTER. Your changes will be saved and then you will see "CLOCK SET TO LOCAL" in the
display. Once you see this message you can press the CLEAR key 3 times to exit the Clock configu­ration mode.

C

ENTERING THE BELT

After installing and levelling the treadmill, check the belt to ensure that it is tracking properly. First,
plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet. See Electrical Requirements at the beginning of this
section for details. Then, turn the treadmill ON.

Have one person stand on the platforms on either side of the treadmill frame. Do not stand on the
belt at this time. Press the QUICK START key, and increase the speed to 4.0 miles per hour (MPH),
or 6.4 kilometers per hour (KPH), using the SPEED UP arrow.

If the striding belt moves to the right while it is running, have a second person turn the right tension
bolt a quarter-turn clockwise, and then turn the left tension bolt (A) a quarter-turn counter-clockwise.
See the illustration below. This action sets the striding belt tracking back to center of the roller.

If the striding belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt a quarter-turn clockwise and then turn
the right tension bolt a quarter-turn counter-clockwise to start the striding belt tracking back to center
of roller.

Repeat these adjustments until striding belt appears centered. Allow the belt to continue running for
several minutes to be sure that the tracking is stabilized.

NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If, after one full turn,
the belt does not track properly, contact Customer Support Services. The phone numbers are listed in
Section 6.7, titled How to Obtain Product Service.

MART STOP

TM

B

ELT STOP SYSTEM

The Smart StopTMbelt stop system (B) senses that a user is standing on the belt. If the user
steps off while the striding belt is in motion, after a brief delay, the system automatically pauses
the workout. During the FIT TEST, the workout is aborted. To continue the workout, press the
ENTER key.

FITNESS NETWORKING

The two interchangeable type RJ45 networking ports (A) are located on the back of the display
console. These network ports, located behind the display console rear access door, allow the
treadmill to be connected to a fitness entertainment system and/or a fitness network, such as
FitLinxx®.

• Networking: The built-in networking ports allow the unit to exchange workout

information with a fitness network database.

• Fitness Entertainment: The built-in network ports allow the treadmill to power a

third-party receiver for use with an entertainment system, such as the Cardio Theater®
system, BroadcastVision

TM

or EnerciseTM.

OWER CORD ROUTING

The power cord can be run straight from the treadmill, shortened and exited out the user-front
left side, or run under the frame using the power cord clips and exited out the user right-rear
side of the treadmill.

For efficient cord management, the following routing options are recommended:
With the power cord unplugged, insert the clips in the appropriate holes. See the illustration

below. Use Hole Pattern 1 or 2 to locate the clips and secure the power cord with the clips,
taking up any slack between clips.

NOTE: It may be necessary to tip the treadmill to route the power cord properly.

To plug the power cord into an outlet in front of the treadmill, use Hole Pattern 1 for outlets
located at the front of the machine.

NOTE: To accomodate treadmill incline, at least two feet (24”) of power cord is required
