The unique CardioTrack heart rate monitor is specially designed for accuracy, comfort, and durability. To get
the best performance from the heart rate monitor, please read the instructions below.
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
The heart rate monitor consists of two components: the chest strap and the transmitter. Follow the steps below to put on the heart rate monitor.
1. Refer to the inset drawing above. Insert the tab on
one end of the chest strap through the hole in one end of the transmitter. Press the end of the trans­mitter under the buckle on the chest strap. The tab should be flush with the front of the transmitter.
2. Wrap the
heart rate monitor around your chest and attach the other end of the chest strap to the transmitter. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary. The heart rate monitor should be under your clothing, against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the NordicTrack logo is facing forward and is right-side-up.
3. Pull the transmitter away from your body a few inches and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side. The electrode areas are the two long, grooved rectangles. Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the transmitter to a position against your chest.
HEART RATE MONITOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING
The instructions on pages 11 to 17 of this userÕs manual explain how the heart rate monitor is used with the console. If the letters ÒPLSÓ appear in the PULSE display, or if the displayed heart rate is excessively high or low when the heart rate moni­tor is used, try the trouble-shooting steps below.
1. Make sure that the heart rate monitor is under your clothing, against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Note: If the heart rate monitor does not function when positioned as described, try moving it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
2. Make sure that the NordicTrack logo on the trans­mitter is facing forwards and is right-side-up.
3. Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution to wet the two electrode areas on the transmitter. If heart rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
4. As you walk or run on the treadmill, position your­self near the center of the walking belt. For the
console to display heart rate readings, the user must be within armÕs length of the console.
5. The heart rate monitor 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.
6. The operation of the heart rate monitor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that magnetic interference may be causing a problem, try relocating the treadmill.
7. If the heart rate monitor still does not function properly, test it by having another person try it.
8. The CR2032 battery may need to be replaced (see page 9).

HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
¥ Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each
use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate moni­tor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off when it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each use, it may remain activated longer than necessary.
¥ Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or other container that may trap moisture.
¥ Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose the heart rate monitor to temperatures above 122¡ Fahrenheit (50¡ Celsius) or below 14¡ Fahrenheit (-10¡ Celsius).
¥ Do not excessively bend or stretch the transmitter
when using or storing the heart rate monitor.
¥ Clean the transmitter using water and mild soapÑ
never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.
¥ If the heart rate monitor
does not function prop­erly, the CR 2032 bat­tery may need to be replaced. To replace the battery, locate the bat­tery cover on the back of the transmitter. Insert a coin into the slot in the cover and turn the cover counterclockwise to the ÒopenÓ position. Remove the cover.
Remove the old battery and insert a new CR 2032 battery, making sure that the battery is turned so the writing is on top. In addition, make sure that the rubber gas­ket is in place in the transmitter. Replace the battery cover and turn it to the closed position.

Operation and Adjustment
THE PERFORMANT LUBETMWALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking plat­form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your homeÕs 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).
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores and department stores. 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.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc­tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec­tric 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,
and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
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.
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 from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec­trician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
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 productÑif it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Press the START/ENTER button or the SPEED Ò+Ó button to start the program.
When the button is pressed, the SPEED display will flash and a tone will sound twice. If the incline of the treadmill is higher than 1.5%, it will automatically decrease to 1.5%. After a moment, the walking belt will begin to move at 1.5 mph. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
As you exercise, a tone will sound after each one­minute period of the program (after one minute, after two minutes, etc.). The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will also change periodically to keep your heart rate near the predetermined setting of the pro­gram. The TIME/PACE display will show the time remaining in the program. Near the end of the pro­gram, the walking belt will slow to allow you to cool down. During the last ten seconds of the program, the incline will decrease to 1.5%. When no time remains, the walking belt will slow to a stop. If your heart rate is not detected during the program, the letters ÒPLSÓ will flash in the PULSE display. (See Heart Rate Monitor Trouble-shooting on page 8.) The speed and/or incline of the treadmill may also auto­matically decrease until your heart rate is detected.
To stop the program momentarily, press the STOP button. The displays will pause and the TIME/PACE display will begin to flash. To restart the program, press the START/ENTER button or the SPEED Ò+Ó button. To end the program, hold down the STOP button for two seconds.
Note: Minor adjustments can be made to the speed or incline of the treadmill during the program with the SPEED or INCLINE buttons. However, if you
increase the speed, the incline will automatically decrease; if you decrease the speed, the incline will increase. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will increase. The console will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the predetermined setting.
When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can­not be decreased any further.
Follow your progress with the five displays.

Conditioning Guidelines
The following 9 steps for designing your exercise program were developed by exercise physiologists at NordicTrack. The actual exercise you perform is only a part of a safe and effective training program. There are many other aspects to developing a life-long commitment to physical fitness.
Consult your physician before beginning any exercise program.
A medical examination or consultation with your physician is essential.
Establish personal fitness goals.
Set attainable, realistic goals. Reward yourself when you meet those goals. Remember, your goals should act as a guide for your workout program.
Determine your target heart rate.
Your target heart rate (THR), is the rate at which you would like your heart to work during aerobic exercise. It is expressed as a percentage of your maximum heart rate (MHR). MHR is the maximum number of times that your heart can pump during one minute. To determine your approximate MHR, subtract your age (in years) from 220. This is only an estimation of your MHRÑonly clinical stress testing can provide an actual MHR reading.
Once you have determined your MHR, you can establish your target heart rate zone. Beginning exercisers may wish to start at 60 to 70 percent of their MHR. This level is called the Health level. Exercise at 70 to 85 percent of your MHR for the optimal training, aerobic, or cardiovascular levelÑ the Fitness level. Advanced exercisers, or those wishing to do sports, athletic conditioning, or inter­val training workouts should exercise at 80 to 85 percent of the MHR for short periods of time. The chart below shows Target Heart Rate Zones for Health, Fitness, and Advanced exercisers.
Be sure to check your heart rate at least twice during an aerobic conditioning session. First, check your heart rate five minutes into your workout to be sure that you are at the proper intensity. Then, check it again near the end of your workout to verify that you have maintained your target heart rate for the recommended period of time.
FACTORS IN A SENSIBLE DIET
¥ Choose high-fiber, low-fat, and low-in-sugar
foods: fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
¥ Eat at least five servings of fruits and
vegetables each day.
¥ Cut back on red meat consumption; eat lean
meat, white meat, and fish.
¥ Choose healthy snacks; bring healthy foods
with you to work or in the car.
¥ Eat regular meals or mini-meals. Control your
portion sizeÑdon't binge or overeat. Eat slowly.
¥ Reduce fast food and pre-packaged meals.
¥ Pay attention to fat content and calories.
¥ Limit alcoholic beverages and caffeine.
¥ Drink at least eight to ten glasses of water a
day.

Warm up before you begin.
A warm-up routine prepares your body and mind for vigorous exercise. It also provides insurance against injury and soreness. Warm up with two to five minutes of slow exercise, at minimal intensity.
Stretch after your warm-up.
A pliable, well-stretched muscle is less susceptible to injury. Perform the recommended stretches on a smooth, flat surface.
The correct form for several stretches is described below (refer to the drawings at the right). Be sure to move slowly as you stretchÑnever bounce.
1. Toe Touch StretchÑSit with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees, and back.
2. Calf/Achilles StretchÑWith one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward, and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons, and ankles.
3. Hamstring StretchÑSit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for both legs. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.
4. Inner Thigh StretchÑSit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Quadriceps StretchÑWith one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
WEIGHT LOSS TIPS
At least four, 30-minute workouts per week, along with a reduced-calorie diet, are recommended if you are trying to lose weight. However, be sure to stay within your target heart rate zone and exercise a maximum of 5 days per week for 60 minutes per workout.
Good posture is the key to safe, comfortable workouts. Keep your chin up and your head facing forward. Align your head and shoulders with your hips. Avoid leaning forward. Keep your back straight.

Get FIT with the PowerTread 1750.
Effective aerobic exercise has three major parts: frequency, intensity, and time. The acronym "FIT" may help you to remember these three parts:
ÒFÓ stands for the frequency of your workouts.
Three to five workouts per week are recom­mended. Exercise at least four times a week for weight loss.
ÒIÓ refers to the intensity of your workout.
Check your heart rate at least twice during your aerobic exercise session: once during the session and once again at the end. Maintain a workout intensity level within your Target Heart Rate Zone. You can measure your heart rate using the heart rate monitor. An alternate method is described below:
1. Lower your wrist below your heart level. This will make your heart rate stronger and easier to feel.
2. Using the index and middle fingertips of your right hand, touch your left wrist, one­fourth inch from your wrist joint, at the base of your thumb.
3. Apply minimal pressure with both fingersÑlet the beat come to your fingers. If you can't find your pulse, use the opposite wrist and hand.
ÒTÓ is for the time or duration of your workout.
Beginning exercisers may wish to start with 5 to 10 minutes of aerobic activity. Those in average physical condition should exercise for 20 to 30 minutes. Highly fit people, or people who want to lose weight, should exercise for 30 to 60 minutes. The key to the time factor is that you maintain your target heart rate for the duration of the workout period.
Remember to take it slowly. Fitness is a lifelong commitment. If you can't go the full 20 minutes from the start, which is common, try to exercise for five minutes at a time, a couple of times a day. Recent research indicates that several short workouts in one day can also provide fitness benefits. Gradually, your stamina will increase and it will become easier to exercise for longer periods of time.
Cool down after aerobic exercise.
Keep moving! It is important that you cool down properly to allow your heart rate to decrease slowly after it has been elevated. This helps the blood flow from your extremities back to your heart. Keep your legs moving on the treadmill at a slower pace for at least five minutes following the aerobic phase.
Stretch again at the end of your exercise session.
Stretching after exercise reduces muscle soreness. See step 5 on page 23.
Participate in strength training.
"Balanced fitness, including both strength training and aerobic exercise, can do more to ensure a happy life than just about anything else known to medical science today."
ÑKenneth Cooper, M.D., M.P.H., founder of The Cooper Institute For Aerobic Research, Dallas, Texas.
A strength-training program increases your lean muscle mass. Lean muscle mass aids in burning body fat. With additional muscle mass and strength, you will receive the full benefits of an exercise program. You will also be less prone to injuries during the aerobic phase of your workout.

The Health level typically lasts four to six weeks. At this level you should be concerned with slowly improving your fitness level and endurance.
Take it slowly. Set mini-goals for yourself. You may want to begin your fitness routine with three or four short, 5- or 10-minute workouts in a day.
Move on to the Fitness Level only when you feel ready and your heart rate has moved below your target heart rate zone.
The Fitness level usually lasts 12 to 20 weeks. (It may last longer, depending on your fitness goals.) At this level you should strive to achieve your fitness goals.
Set realistic short- and long-term goals for yourself. Frequently re-evaluate your fitness goals and reward yourself as you are successful.
Move on to the Advanced Level when you have reached your fitness goals and your heart rate has moved below your target heart rate zone.
Work out at the Advanced level once you have reached your desired fitness goals. It is intended to be a mainte­nance program and should continue on a regular, long­term basis.
You may wish to add Interval Training to your mainte- nance program as well. Interval training will add variety to your workout routine and further condition your cardiovascular system. Interval training has been shown to promote higher levels of aerobic conditioning. It consists of spurts of high-intensity activity followed by active rest periods of exercise at a lower intensity. For example, a one-minute spurt of high-resistance, fast exercise* is followed by a two- to three-minute active rest period of low-resistance, slow exercise. The duration of these periods should be based more on how you feel rather than time. A sequence such as this should be repeated 5 to 20 times during your workout session.
*Estimated maximum heart rate (MHR) = 220 - your age.
WORKOUT TIPS
Full-body conditioning helps take care of many of life's aches and pains. However, it takes time for your body to adapt to any new routine. Below are some tips that will help ease you into your new NordicTrack routine.
¥ Begin and end each exercise session with the
stretches on page 23. Stretch in a smooth, controlled manner. Hold each stretch for 15 to 30 seconds. You may experience some initial muscle soreness and discomfort as a result of exercising inactive or poorly stretched muscles. For maximum benefit, a stretching routine must be performed every day.
¥ Be aware of your body's signals and react to
them accordingly. At your correct exercise intensity, you should be able to whistle or maintain a normal conversation. If during exercise you feel tired, light-headed, dizzy, or nauseated, stop exercising immediately and consult your physician. Your heart rate may also be affected by such things as stress, caffeine, nicotine or prescription drugs.
