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. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least eight feet of clearance behind it, two feet
on each side, and six inches in front. Do not
place the treadmill on any surface that blocks
air openings. To protect the floor or carpet
from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or oxygen is administered.
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.
o reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the
11. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change
speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,
which may result in a fall and serious injury.
12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.
13. Never move the walking belt while the power
is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the
treadmill is not working properly. (See
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 27 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
14. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 13).
15. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.
7. The treadmill should not be used by persons
weighing more than 350 pounds. Never allow
more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes
that could become caught in the treadmill.
Athletic support clothes are recommended

9. When connecting the power cord (see page 11),
plug the power cord into a surge suppressor
(not included) and plug the surge suppressor
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be on
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.
10. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that

your local NordicTrack dealer or call the tollfree telephone number on the front cover of
this manual and order part number 146148, or
see your local electronics store.
16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.
17. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.

non-abrasive cleaner.
Assembly requires the included allen wrench and your own phillips screwdriver .
For help identifying assembly hardware, see the drawings below. Note: If a part is not found in the part bags,
check to see if the part has been preattached. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for
assembly.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill
can be changed with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise
feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using
the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse
sensor (see page 24).
In addition, the console features twelve Cardio programs and three Calorie programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill
as it guides you through an effective workout. You can
even create your own Record programs and save them
for future use. The console also offers four Pulse programs that control the speed and incline of the treadmill
to help you keep your heart rate near target heart rate
settings. Note: The Pulse programs require the use of
the optional chest pulse sensor.
The console also features the new iFIT SD system. The
iFIT SD system enables the console to accept iFIT
Cards containing workout programs designed to help
you achieve specific fitness goals. For example, lose
unwanted pounds with the 8-week Weight Loss program, or train for a long-distance run with the
Marathon program. iFIT programs automatically control
the treadmill while the voice of a personal trainer
coaches you and motivates you through every step of
your workout. One iFIT Card with three new programs
is included. Additional iFIT Cards are available sepa-
