IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1) Before starting this or any other exercise

program, consult your physician, who can assist you in determining the target heart rate zone appropriate for your age and physical condition. Certain exercise programs or types of equipment may not be appropriate for all people. This is especially important for people over the age of 35, pregnant women, or those with pre-existing health problems or balance impairments.

2) Monitor your heart rate while you exercise and

keep your estimated pulse rate within your target heart rate zone. Follow the instructions on pages 24 and 25 in this manual regarding heart rate monitoring and how to determine your appropriate target heart rate zone. When used properly, the heart rate pulse sensors and display monitor provide a reasonably accurate estimate of your actual heart rate. This estimate is not exact and persons with medical conditions and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring should not rely on the estimations provided.

3) Warm up before any exercise program by

doing 5-10 minutes of aerobic activity, followed by stretching.

Inspect the equipment. Before EACH use, a

complete visual inspection, and test of the features and functions of the assembled equipment is required. Do not use equipment if you detect any incorrect, worn or loose components. NEVER operate the equipment if the equipment is not functioning properly.

5) Do not wear loose or dangling clothing while

using the equipment. Wear comfortable clothes that allow freedom of movement.

6) Wear comfortable shoes made of good support

with rubberized sole.

7) Breathe naturally, never holding your breath

during an exercise.

8) Avoid over training. You should be able to carry

on a conversation while exercising.

9) After an exercise session, cool down with slow

walking and stretching.

10) This equipment should not be used by or near

children.

11) Handicapped or disabled people must have

medical approval before using this equipment and should be under close supervision when using any exercise equipment.

12) If you are taking medication which may

affect your heart rate, a physician's advice is absolutely essential.

18) Start exercise slowly and gradually increase

the amount of resistance.

19) If the user experiences dizziness, nausea, chest

pain, or any other abnormal symptoms, stop exercise at once and consult a physician immediately.

20) Use caution not to pinch fingers or hands in

moving parts when using the equipment.

21)

Risk of electrical shock. This equipment is to be used only indoors and in a dry location.

22) Have plenty of clearance behind and in

front of your Treadmill. It is important to keep children, pets, furniture and other objects out of the way when using your Treadmill. You should have a minimum of 4 feet of clearance both in front of and behind your Treadmill and a minimum of 2 feet of clearance on both sides of the Treadmill.

With this product in your home, you have everything you need to start your own workout program to tone and firm the major muscle groups of your lower body. This is vital for all of us, regardless of age, sex, or fitness level, and regardless of whether your primary goal is toning, health maintenance, or more energy for daily activities.

Proper exercise, including a low fat diet, strength training and aerobic exercise, tones and conditions the muscles we use every day to stand, walk, lift and turn. It can actually transform our body composition by reducing body fat and increasing the proportion of lean muscle in our bodies. Using the treadmill will help in reducing body fat and increasing cardiovascular endurance.

Be sure to read through this Owner’s Manual carefully.

turn clockwise.Turn on the Treadmill and check the tension. If it needs additional tension, continue to tighten one turn at a time until the Belt is no longer slipping.

Be sure to adjust both sides equally to insure correct Belt alignment.

WALKING BELT CENTERING

The Walking Belt may occasionally need to be centered. Your Treadmill has sight indexes that aid in keeping the Walking Belt centered.

First, be sure the Belt is tensioned properly. Then, run the Treadmill at 4 mph. It is easiest to use only the left Adjustment Knob in making Walking Belt centering adjustments.

If the Walking Belt has moved to the right, turn the Left Adjustment Knob a quarter turn to the left. Let the Treadmill run about 30 seconds, and if the Belt does not move, repeat.

If the Walking Belt has moved to the left, turn the Left Adjustment Knob a quarter turn to the right. Let the Treadmill run about 30 seconds, and if the Belt does not move, repeat.

WARNING: Always turn off and unplug the Treadmill from the electrical outlet before moving, cleaning, lubricating, or servicing the Treadmill.

Note: The Treadmill MUST be placed on a level surface only. If the Treadmill is not level, the belt will continuously slip to the low side of the Treadmill. CAUTION: DO NOT USE Treadmill if it is not on a level surface.

Have plenty of clearance behind and in front of your Treadmill. It is important to keep children, pets, furniture and other objects out of the way when using your Treadmill. You should have a minimum of 4 feet of clearance both in front of and behind your Treadmill and a minimum of 2 feet of clearance on both sides of the Treadmill.

Worn or damaged components should be replaced immediately. Do not use the Treadmill if it is not working properly. Only manufactured-supplied or approved components shall be used to maintain and repair the Treadmill. It is the sole responsibility of the user/owner to ensure that regular maintenance is performed.

WALKING BELT TENSION

Walking Belts tend to stretch slightly with use.The Walking Belt may occasionally need to be tightened. If the Walking Belt is too loose, you may find the Belt stops or hesitates while running or walking. However, it is very important not to over-tighten the Walking Belt as it will damage the Motor, Rollers, and Electrical Components.

When properly tensioned, you should be able to lift the side of the Belt about 2-3 inches, or you should be able to fit three fingers under the edge of the Belt. This should be done on either side of the Belt in the center of the Deck.

To tighten the Belt, with the Treadmill off, turn the

Left Knob at the end of the Treadmill one full turn clockwise, and then turn the Right Knob one full

TAKING CARE OF YOUR TREADMILL

Page 15

WALKING BELT AND DECK LUBRICATION

Your Treadmill Belt has been lubricated at the factory, but periodic lubrication will extend the life of your Treadmill Belt, Board, and Electrical Components. We recommend the following lubrication schedule based on weekly usage:

5+ hours per week Monthly

3 - 5 hours per week Every three months

0 - 3 hours per week Every six months

LUBRICATION APPLICATION

1. Put a liberal quantity of lubricant onto foam side of the Applicator Wand. Apply lubricant evenly across the foam pad.

2. Insert the Applicator Wand into the lubrication port on the right hand side of the Treadmill, under the Walking Belt with the lubricated side of the Applicator Wand up, against the Belt.

Slide it completely across the Walking Deck into the lubrication port on the left side of the Treadmill.

NOTE: Make sure the Applicator Wand is securely in the left side lubrication port.

3. Start the Treadmill Belt and set the speed at

1.0 mph. Let the Belt run for about 45 seconds in order to spread the lubrication on the underneath side of the belt.

4. Place Applicator Wand in plastic sleeve to retain moisture.

WARNING: Always turn off and unplug the Treadmill from the electrical outlet before cleaning, lubricating, or servicing the Treadmill.

CLEANING

Keeping the Treadmill clean will prolong the life of the Treadmill and improve performance.

Regularly dust the unit, especially the exposed part of the Deck between the Belt and the Side Rails.

For best performance, we recommend your Treadmill be placed on a Treadmill Mat. A Treadmill Mat will help to keep dust debris away from your Treadmill's electrical components.

Clean the top of the Belt with a damp cloth. Be careful to keep liquid away from inside the frame or underneath the Belt.

At least once a year remove the Motor Cover and vacuum under the Motor Cover.

To remove the cover: After turning off and unplugging the Treadmill, loosen the screws (you do not have to remove the screws) on each side (2) and in the front (2) of the Motor Cover and carefully lift the cover off. Be careful, especially around the wiring on the lower board.

WARNING: Always turn off and unplug the Treadmill from the electrical outlet before removing the Motor Cover.

SAFETY TIPS:

• Practice mounting and dismounting your Treadmill before beginning your workout.

• Attach the Safety Key to the Computer (the Treadmill will not operate without the Safety Key). Clip the other end of the Safety Key to your clothing before exercising to ensure the Treadmill will stop if the user accidentally walks off the Treadmill.

• If the user falls off the Treadmill, the Safety Key will come off the Computer and the Treadmill will stop at once to avoid further injury.

• Do not stand on the Walking Belt while starting the Treadmill. Straddle the Belt and stand on the plastic Foot Rails.

• The Treadmill will start at 0.5mph after a 3,2,1 countdown. If you are a new user, stay at a slow speed and hold onto the Hand Grips until you become comfortable.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

IMPORTANT:

If you are over 35 and have been inactive for several years, you should consult your physician, who may or may not recommend a graded exercise test.

If you are just beginning your exercise program, your target heart rate range should be roughly at 60% of your maximum heart rate.As you become more conditioned (or if you are already in good cardiovascular shape) you can increase your target heart rate to 70%-85% of your maximum heart rate. Remember, your target heart rate is only a guide.

You should also consult your physician if you have the following:

• High blood pressure

• High cholesterol

• Asthma

• Heart trouble

•Family history of early stroke or heart attack deaths

• Frequent dizzy spells

• Extreme breathlessness after mild exertion

• Arthritis or other bone problems

• Severe muscular, ligament or tendon problems

• Other known or suspected disease

• If you experience any pain or tightness in your chest, an irregular heartbeat or shortness of breath, stop exercising immediately. Consult your physician before continuing.

•Pregnant

• Balance impairment

•Taking medications that affect heart rate

KNOWING THE BASICS

Physical fitness is most easily understood by examining its components, or "parts".

There is widespread agreement that these five components comprise the basics of physical training:

CARDIORESPIRATORY ENDURANCE – the ability to deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues, and to remove wastes, over sustained periods of time. Using your Treadmill will improve this.

MUSCULAR STRENGTH – the ability of a muscle to exert force for a brief period of time. Upper-body strength, for example, can be measured by various weight-lifting exercises.

MUSCULAR ENDURANCE – the ability of a muscle, or a group of muscles, to sustain repeated contractions or to continue applying force against a fixed object. Push ups are often used to test endurance of arm and shoulder muscles.

FLEXIBILITY – the ability to move joints and use muscles through their full range of motion.The sitand-reach test is a good measure of flexibility of the lower back and backs of the upper legs.

BODY COMPOSITION – often considered a component of fitness. It refers to the makeup of the body in terms of lean mass (muscle, bone, vital tissue and organs) and fat mass. An optimal ratio of fat to lean mass is an indication of fitness, and the right types of exercises will help you decrease body fat and increase or maintain muscle mass. To help track your progress we have provided Workout Progress Chart on page 30.

A COMPLETE EXERCISE PROGRAM

How often, how long and how hard you exercise, and what kinds of exercises you do should be determined by what you are trying to accomplish. Your goals, your present fitness level, age, health, skills, interest and convenience are among the factors you should consider. For example, an athlete training for high-level competition would follow a different program than a person whose goals are good health and the ability to meet work and recreational needs.

Your exercise program should include something from each of the four basic fitness components

Page 25

described previously. Each workout should begin with a warm up and end with a cool down. As a general rule, space your workouts throughout the week and avoid consecutive days of hard exercise.

Here are the amounts of activity necessary for the average healthy person to maintain a minimum level of overall fitness. Included are some of the popular exercises for each category.

WARM UP – 5 -10 minutes of exercise such as walking, slow jogging, knee lifts, arm circles or trunk rotations. Low intensity movements that simulate movements to be used in the activity can also be included in the warm up.

MUSCULAR STRENGTH –a minimum of two, 20 minute sessions per week that include exercises for all the major muscle groups. Lifting weights is the most effective way to increase strength.

MUSCULAR ENDURANCE – at least three, 30 minute sessions each week that include exercises such as calisthenics, push ups, sit ups, pull ups, and weight training for all the major muscle groups.

CARDIORESPIRATORY ENDURANCE – at least three, 20 minute workouts of continuous aerobic exercise each week. Working out on your Treadmill is a good way to obtain this aerobic activity. Other popular aerobic conditioning activities include brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, rope jumping, rowing, cross-country skiing, and some continuous action games like racquetball and handball.

FLEXIBILITY – 10-12 minutes of daily stretching exercises performed slowly, without a bouncing motion. This can be included after a warm up or during a cool down. Refer to pages 27 and 28 for a list of total body stretches.

COOL DOWN – a minimum of 5 -10 minutes of slow walking or lower intensity elliptical exercise, combined with stretching.

AEROBIC EXERCISE: HOW MUCH? HOW OFTEN?

Experts recommend that you do some form of aerobic exercise at least three times a week for a minimum of 20 continuous minutes. Of course, if that is too much, start with a shorter time span and gradually build up to the minimum. Then gradually progress until you are able to work aerobically for 20-40 minutes. If you want to lose weight, you may want to do your aerobic workout five times a week.

It is important to exercise at an intensity vigorous enough to cause your heart rate and breathing to increase. How hard you should exercise depends to

a certain degree on your age, and is determined by measuring your heart rate in beats per minute. Refer to the “Measuring Your Heart Rate” section below and on the following page for more information on how to determine and measure your heart rate.

You can do different types of aerobic activities, say walking one day, and use your Treadmill the next. Make sure you choose an activity that can be done regularly, and is enjoyable for you. The important thing to remember is not to skip too many days between workouts or fitness benefits will be lost. If you must lose a few days, gradually work back into your routine.

WHEN TO EXERCISE

The hour just before the evening meal is a popular time for exercise.The late afternoon workout provides a welcome change of pace at the end of the work day and helps dissolve the day's worries and tensions.

Another popular time to work out is early morning, before the work day begins. Advocates of the early start say it makes them more alert and energetic on the job.

Among the factors you should consider in developing your workout schedule are personal preference, job and family responsibilities, availability of exercise facilities and weather. It's important to schedule your workouts for a time when there is little chance that you will have to cancel or interrupt them because of other demands on your time.

You should not exercise strenuously during extremely hot, humid weather or within two hours after eating. Heat and/or digestion both make heavy demands on the circulatory system, and in combination with exercise can be an over-taxing double load.

MEASURING YOUR HEART RATE

(see chart on page 26)

Heart rate is widely accepted as a good method for measuring intensity during running, swimming, cycling, and other aerobic activities. Exercise that doesn't raise your heart rate to a certain level and keep it there for 20 minutes won't contribute significantly to cardiovascular fitness.

The heart rate you should maintain is called your Target Heart Rate. There are several ways of arriving at this figure. One of the simplest is: maximum heart rate (220 - age) x 70%. Thus, the target heart rate for a 40 year-old would be 126. In this example for this

Page 26

40 year old to get a cardiovascular effect the individual would need to keep their heart rate at or above 126 beats per minute to get a cardiovascular effect. Note: Although 70% was used in this example, the heart rate range needed to achieve results falls between 60% and 85% of your maximum heart rate.

If you are just beginning your exercise program, your target heart rate range should be roughly at 60% of your maximum heart rate. As you become more conditioned (or if you are already in good cardiovascular shape) you can increase your target heart rate to 70%-85% of your maximum heart rate. Remember, your target heart rate is only a guide.

When checking heart rate during a workout, take your pulse within five seconds after interrupting exercise because it starts to go down once you stop moving. Count pulse for 10 seconds and multiply by six to get the per-minute rate.

Remember, your New Balance Treadmill also comes with pulse sensors located on the Console.

When used properly, the unit pulse sensors can help you to determine your estimated heart rate. To do so:

1. Push the start button on your Computer.

2. Gently grab both metal pulse sensors on both handlebars. Wait 6 seconds.

3. Your estimated heart rate range will be

displayed on screen. Check the chart on the following page to see if you are within your range according to your age.

By using the chart on the next page you can see where your heart rate falls in the minimum and maximum target zones.

The above are guidelines, people with any medical limitations should discuss this formula with their physician.

CLOTHING

All exercise clothing should be loose-fitting to permit freedom of movement, and should make the wearer feel comfortable and self-assured.

Never wear rubberized or plastic clothing, such garments interfere with the evaporation of perspiration and can cause body temperature to rise to dangerous levels.

We recommend wearing a workout shoe with a

rubberized sole unless instructed otherwise.

TIPS TO KEEP YOU GOING

1. Adopt a specific plan and write it down.

2. Keep setting realistic goals as you go along,

and remind yourself of them often.

3. Keep a log to record your progress and make

sure to keep it up-to-date. See page 30.

4. Include weight and/or percent body fat

measures in your log. Extra pounds can easily creep back.

5. Upgrade your fitness program as you progress.

Your Treadmill provides different workout programs to keep your workouts challenging.

6. Enlist the support and company of your family

and friends.

7. Update others on your successes.

8. Avoid injuries by pacing yourself and including

a warm up and cool down period as part of every workout. See page 24.

9. Reward yourself periodically for a job well done!

Stretches can help improve flexibility and relieve the tightness in muscles that results from repetitive sport movements that require a limited range of motion. 10 to 12 minutes of daily stretching is recommended. This can be done when warming up or cooling down. When performing these stretches, your movements should be slow and smooth, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until you feel a slight tension, not pain, in the muscle and hold the stretch for 20 to 30 seconds. Breathe slowly and rhythmically. Be sure not to hold your breath. Remember that all stretches must be done for both sides of your body.

1. Quadriceps Stretch

Stand close to a wall, chair or other solid object. Use one hand to assist your balance. Bend the opposite knee and lift your heel towards your buttocks. Reach back and grasp the top of your foot with the same side hand. Keeping your inner thighs close together, slowly pull your foot towards your buttocks until you feel a gentle stretch in the front of your thigh. You do not have to touch your buttocks with your heel. Stop pulling when you feel the stretch. Keep your kneecap pointing straight down and keep your knees close together. (Do not let the lifted knee swing outward.)

Hold the stretch for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat for the other leg.

2. Calf and Achilles Stretch

Stand approximately one arms length away from a wall or chair with your feet hip-width apart. Keeping your toes pointed forward,move one leg in close to the chair while extending the other leg behind you. Bending the leg closest to the chair and keeping the other leg straight, place your hands on the chair. Keep the heel of the back leg on the ground and move your hips forward. Slowly lean forward from the ankle, keeping your back leg straight until you feel a stretch in your calf muscles.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat for the opposite leg.

3. Overhead/Triceps Stretch

Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and your knees slightly bent. Lift one arm overhead and bend your elbow, reaching down behind your head with your hand toward the opposite shoulder blade. Walk your fingertips down your back as far as you can. Hold this position. Reach up with your opposite hand and grasp your flexed elbow. Gently assist the stretch by pulling on the elbow.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat for the opposite arm.

WARM UP & COOL DOWN STRETCHES

Page 29

4. Back Stretch

Stand with your legs shoulder width apart and your knees slightly bent. Bend forward from your waist with your arms extending loosely in front of your body. Gently bend from the waist flexing your body as far forward as it will go.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Straighten up and repeat.

5. Standing Hamstrings Stretch

Stand with your legs hip-width apart. Extend one leg out in front of you and keep that foot flat against the ground. With your hands resting lightly on your thighs, bend your back leg and lean forward slightly from your hips until you feel a stretch in the back of your thigh. Be sure to lean forward from the hip joint rather than bending at your waist.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Repeat for the opposite leg.

6. Buttocks, Hips and Abdominal Stretch

Lay flat on your back with your hips relaxed against the floor. Bend one leg at the knee. Keeping both shoulders flat on the floor, gently grasp the bent knee with your hands and pull it over your body and towards the ground.You should feel a stretch in your hips, abdominals and lower back.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds and release. Repeat for opposite side.

7. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit on the floor and bend your legs so that the soles of your feet are together. Place your elbows on your knees. Lean forward from the waist and press down lightly on the inside of your knees. You should feel a stretch in the muscles of your inside thigh.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds and release.

8. Arm Pullback

Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and toes pointing forward and with your knees slightly bent. Let your arms hang relaxed on either side of your body. Expand your chest and pull your shoulders back. Bend your elbows slightly and clasp your hands behind your back. Slowly straighten your arms as you lift your hands upward. Raise your hands upward until you feel mild tension in your shoulder and chest region.

Hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Lower your arms to their original position and bend your elbows. Release your hands and return them to your sides.
