IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and instructions in this manual and all warnings on your incline trainer before using your incline trainer. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

1.Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

2.It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this incline trainer are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions.

3.Use the incline trainer only as described.

4.Keep the incline trainer indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the incline trainer in a garage or covered patio, or near water.

5.Place the incline trainer on a level surface, with at least 8 ft. (2.4 m) of clearance behind it and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each side. Do not place the incline trainer on any surface that blocks air openings. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the incline trainer.

6.Do not operate the incline trainer where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

7.Keep children under age 12 and pets away from the incline trainer at all times.

8.The incline trainer should be used only by persons weighing 350 lbs. (159 kg) or less.

9.Never allow more than one person on the incline trainer at a time.

10.Wear appropriate exercise clothes while using the incline trainer. Do not wear loose clothes that could become caught in the incline trainer. Athletic support clothes are recommended for both men and women. Always wear athletic shoes. Never use the incline trainer with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

11.Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor (not included), and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet (see page 14). To avoid overloading the circuit, do not plug other electrical devices, except for low-power devices such as cell phone chargers, into the surge suppressor or into an outlet on the same circuit.

12.Use only a surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local NORDICTRACK dealer, call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual, or see your local electronics store.

13.Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the incline trainer. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may slow, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

14.Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.

15.Never move the walking belt while the power is turned off. Do not operate the incline trainer if the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the incline trainer is not working properly. (See TROUBLESHOOTING on page 28 if the incline trainer is not working properly.)

16.Read, understand, and test the emergency stop procedure before using the incline trainer (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 16).

17.Never start the incline trainer while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the incline trainer.

18.The incline trainer is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

3

19.The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user’s movement, 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.

20.Never leave the incline trainer unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord, and press the power switch into the off position when the incline trainer is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the location of the power switch.)

21.Do not attempt to move the incline trainer until it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY on page 7, and HOW TO MOVE THE INCLINE TRAINER on page 27.) You must be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the incline trainer.

22.Never insert any object into any opening on the incline trainer.

23.Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the incline trainer regularly.

24.DANGER: Always unplug the power cord immediately after use, before cleaning the incline trainer, and before performing the maintenance and adjustment procedures described in this manual. Never remove the motor hood unless instructed to do so by an authorized service representative. Servicing other than the procedures in this manual should be performed by an authorized service representative only.

25.This incline trainer is intended for home use only. Do not use this incline trainer in a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

26.Over exercising may result in serious injury or death. If you feel faint or if you experience pain while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.

ASSEMBLY

•Assembly requires two persons.

•Place all parts in a cleared area and remove the packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until you finish all assembly steps.

•The underside of the walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. After shipping, there may be some lubricant on top of the walking belt or on the shipping carton. This is normal. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, wipe it off with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

•To identify small parts, see page 6.

•Assembly requires the following tools:

the included hex keys

one Phillips screwdriver

To avoid damaging parts, do not use power tools.

1. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged.	1
Identify the right Upright (77), which has a wire
tie in it. Hold the Upright near the right side of
the incline trainer.
See the inset drawing. Tie the wire tie in the		Wire
right Upright (77) around the end of the Upright		Tie
Wire (78). Then, pull the other end of the wire tie
until the Upright Wire is routed out of the top of
the Upright.

4.Have a second person hold the console assembly near the Uprights (77). Insert the console wire and the “R” pulse wire from the console assembly through the indicated tie.

Connect the Upright Wire (78) to the console wire. See the inset drawing. The connectors should slide together easily and snap into place. If they do not, turn one connector and try again. IF YOU DO NOT CONNECT THE CON-

NECTORS PROPERLY, THE CONSOLE MAY BECOME DAMAGED WHEN YOU TURN ON THE POWER.

Remove the wire tie from the Upright Wire (78).
