THE CHEST HEART RATE MONITOR

HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

The heart rate
monitor consists of
a chest strap and a

ensor. Insert the

s
tab on one end of
the chest strap into
the hole in one end
of the sensor as
shown. Then, press
the end of the sen­sor under the buckle
on the chest strap.
The tab should be
flush with the front
of the sensor.

The heart rate moni­tor must be worn
under your clothes,
tight against your
skin. Wrap the heart
rate monitor around
your chest in the lo­cation shown. Make
sure that the logo is
right-side-up. Then,
attach the other end of the chest strap to the sensor.
Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary.

Pull the sensor away from your body a few inches and
locate the two electrode areas, which are covered by
shallow ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or
contact lens solution, wet the electrode areas. Then,
return the sensor to a position against your chest.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Thoroughly dry the sensor with a soft towel after

each use. Moisture may keep the sensor activated,
shortening the life of the battery.

• 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
it to temperatures above 122° F (50° C) or below 14°
F (-10° C).

Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor when

•
using or storing the heart rate monitor.

• To clean the sensor, use a damp cloth and a small
amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the sensor with a
damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft towel.
Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the sensor. Hand wash and air dry the chest strap.

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try
the steps below.

• Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate moni­tor as described at the left. If the heart rate monitor
does not function when positioned as described,
move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.

• If heart rate readings are not displayed until you
begin perspiring, rewet the electrode areas.

• For the console to display heart rate readings, you
must be within armʼs length of the console.

• If there is a battery cover on the back of the sensor,
replace the battery with a new battery of the same
type.

• 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.

• The operation of the heart rate monitor can be
affected by magnetic interference from high power
lines or other sources. If you suspect that magnetic
interference is causing a problem, try relocating the
fitness equipment.

The treadmill, like other electronic equipment, can be
damaged by sudden voltage changes in your homeʼs
power. To decrease the risk of damaging the tread-

mill, always use a surge suppressor with the tread­mill (see drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a
surge suppressor, see precaution 12 on page 3.

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. There must be a moni­toring light on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
properly functioning surge suppressor could dam­age the control system of the treadmill (see precau­tion 13 on page 3).

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-

tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec­tric shock. This productʼs power cord has 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.
IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets and may not be compatible
with AFCI-equipped outlets.

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.
The adapter 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.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following
the simple steps below. Find the symptom that
applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assis-

ance is needed, see the front cover of this manual.

t

YMPTOM: The power does not turn on

S

a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a

surge suppressor and that the surge suppressor is
plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page

14). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that
meets all of the specifications described on page

14. IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compati-

ble with GFCI-equipped outlets and may not be
compatible with AFCI-equipped outlets.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make

sure that the key is inserted into the console.

c. Check the power switch located on the treadmill

frame near the power cord. If the switch protrudes
as shown, the switch has tripped. To reset the
power switch, wait for five minutes and then press
the switch back in.

SYMPTOM: The console displays remain lit when
you remove the key from the console

. The console features a display demo mode, de-

a

signed to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a

tore. If the screen shows a demo presentation

correctly

. If the iFit Live mode is not functioning correctly,

a

make sure that the treadmill has the most current

irmware available (see step 5 on page 25).

f

SYMPTOM: The walking belt slows when walked on

a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that

meets all of the specifications described on page 14.

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be­come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG
THE POWER CORD. Using the hex key, turn both
idler roller screws counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn.
When the walking belt is properly tightened, you
should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt
2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Be
careful to keep the walking belt centered. Then,
plug in the power cord, insert the key, and run the
treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk­ing belt is properly tightened.

SYMPTOM: The incline of the treadmill does not
change correctly

a. Calibrate the incline system (see step 3 on page

25).

Idler Roller Screws

c. Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with

high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never

apply silicone spray or other substances to the
walking belt or the walking platform unless in­structed to do so by an authorized service rep­resentative. Such substances may deteriorate
the walking belt and cause excessive wear. If

you suspect that the walking belt needs more lubri­cant, see the front cover of this manual.

d. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see

the front cover of this manual.

SYMPTOM: The walking belt is off-center or slips
when walked on

SYMPTOM: The treadmill will not connect to the
wireless network

. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the

a

key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the

alking belt has shifted to the left, use the hex

w

key to turn the left idler roller screw clockwise 1/2
of a turn; if the walking belt has shifted to the
right, turn the left idler roller screw counterclock­wise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to overtighten the
walking belt. Then, plug in the power cord, insert
the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is centered.

a

b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-

move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both idler roller screws
clockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is
correctly tightened, you should be able to lift each
edge of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off
the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walk­ing belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, in­sert the key, and carefully walk on the treadmill for
a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is
properly tightened.

. Perform a network test (see step 8 on page 26).

a

. Make sure that the wireless settings on your con-

b

sole are correct (see step 2 on page 23).

c. Make sure that the settings for your wireless net-

work are correct.

d. If you still have questions, see the front cover of

this manual.

SYMPTOM: The buttons on the screen do not work
correctly

a. If the screen is not properly calibrated, it will be dif-

ficult to touch the correct buttons on the screen. To
calibrate the screen, see step 6 on page 26.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

r any exercise program, consult your physi-

o
cian. This is especially important for persons
over age 35 or persons with pre-existing
health problems.

The heart rate monitor is not a medical de­vice. Various factors may affect the accuracy
of heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor
is intended only as an exercise aid in deter­mining heart rate trends in general.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for
successful results.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer­cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin
to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to
burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exer­cise, which is activity that requires large amounts of
oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic ex­ercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten­sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near­est ten years). The three numbers listed above your
age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is
the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min­utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise—never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch­ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be­tween workouts. After a few months of regular exer­cise, you may complete up to five workouts each
week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to
make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
everyday life.

32

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then
relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and
back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit 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 counts, then relax.
Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and
groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With 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 counts, 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.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

3

4

With 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 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for
each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit 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
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip
muscles.
