IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the

following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure hat all users of this treadmill are adequately

t informed of all warnings and precautions.

2. Use the treadmill only as described.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at

least eight feet of clearance behind it and two feet on each side. 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 mois-

ture 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 where oxygen is being administered.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should not be used by persons

weighing more than 350 pounds.

8. Never allow more than one person on the

treadmill at a time.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes that could become caught in the treadmill. Athletic support clothes are recommended for both men and women.

Always wear athletic shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 13), plug the power cord into a surge suppressor (not included). 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.

11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 13. To purchase a surge suppressor, see 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.

12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge uppressor could result in damage to the con-

s trol 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.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

14. 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 26 if the treadmill is not working properly.)

15. Read, understand, and test the emergency

stop procedure before using the treadmill (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 15).

16. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.

17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

18. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.

Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in general.

19. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord, and switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position when the tread mill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 6 for the location of the reset/off circuit breaker.)

20. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the

treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY on page 7, and HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 25.) You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

21. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by lacing objects under the treadmill.

22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the frame is held securely by the pin

n the latch knob.

or other electric light or power circuits, or

here it can fall into such power lines or cir-

uits. When installing an outside antenna sys-

c tem, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal.

HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR

OW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR

he chest pulse sensor consists of two components—

T the chest strap and the sensor unit.

Chest Strap

Tabs

Tab

Sensor Unit

Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into the hole in one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing above. The tab should be flush with the front of the sensor unit.

Next, wrap the chest pulse sensor around your chest and attach the other end of the chest strap to the sensor unit. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary. The chest pulse sensor should be under your clothes, tight against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.

Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side (the electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges). Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor unit to a position against your chest.

Sensor

Unit

Buckle

Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.

•

Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag

r other container that may trap moisture.

• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct

unlight for extended periods of time; do not expose

s it to temperatures above 122° Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit (-10° Celsius).

• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit

when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.

• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never

use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

The instructions on the following pages explain how the chest pulse sensor is used with the console. If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, try the steps below.

• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sen-

sor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulse sensor does not function when positioned as described, move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.

• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens

solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, rewet the electrode areas.

• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position your-

self near the center of the walking belt. For the

console to display heart rate readings, the user must be within arm’s length of the console.

The chest pulse sensor 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.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate monitor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off when it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If the chest pulse sensor is not dried after each use, it may remain activated longer than necessary, draining the battery prematurely.

• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be affected by magnetic interference caused by high power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.

• The CR2032 battery may need to be replaced (see page 28).

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 product—if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s 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). To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local NordicTrack dealer or call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see your local electronics store.

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.

• Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)—Usually this is caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drifts, or other electric appliances. Try changing the position of the treadmill or other electric appliances to correct the problem.

• Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects. Change the direction or position of the antenna to improve reception.

• Blue Screen—If the treadmill is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue screen may appear. If the signal is weak, it may be necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.

Note: If one of these symptoms appears when the cable from a CATV company is connected, the symptom may be caused by the local company broadcast.

PROBLEM: The chest pulse sensor does not function properly

SOLUTION: a. If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, see CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROU-

BLESHOOTING on page 12.

b. If the chest pulse sensor still does not function properly, the battery

should be changed. To replace the battery, locate the battery cover on the back of the sensor unit. Insert a coin into the slot in the cover and turn the cover counterclockwise to the “open” position. Remove the cover.

Remove the old battery from the sensor unit. Insert a new CR 2032 battery, making sure that the writing is on top. In addition, make sure that the rubber gasket is in place in the sensor unit. Replace the battery cover and turn it to the closed position.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physi-

ian. This is especially important for individu-

c als over the age of 35 or individuals with preexisting health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including your movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in

our training zone.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above your age. The three numbers define your “train ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body begin to use stored

carbohydrate calories

fat calories

for energy. If your goal

for en-

Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never hold your breath.

A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the

flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex-

ercise 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, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
