OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with highperformance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-
icone 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 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.
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 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.
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 elec-
tric 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.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
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 product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to help you get the most from your
workouts. 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 builtin handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse
sensor (see page 19).
In addition, the console features six preset 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 custom
workout programs and save them in memory for future
use.
The console also features the new iFIT Interactive
Workout system. The iFIT system enables the console
to accept iFIT Interactive Workout 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 separately. To purchase iFIT
Cards at any time, go to www.iFIT.com or call the
toll-free telephone number on the front cover of
this manual. iFIT Cards are also available at select
stores.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 11. To use a preset
program, see page 14. To create and use a custom
program, see pages 15 and 16. To use an iFIT card,
see page 17.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the console,
peel off the clear plastic.
