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 (159 kg).
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) 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.
11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that
meets all of the specifications described on
page 13.
trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys-
em is damaged, the walking belt may change
t
speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,
which may result in a fall and serious injury.
13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor 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 34 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
15. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT on page 13).
16. Never start the treadmill while you are standing 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 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.
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 treadmill 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 32.) You
must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

lacing objects under the treadmill.
p
22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the frame is held securely by the pin
n the latch knob.

23. When using iFIT programs, an electronic
“chirping” sound will alert you when the
speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about
to change. Always listen for the “chirp” and
be prepared for speed and/or incline changes.
In some instances, the speed and/or incline
may change before the personal trainer describes the change.
24. When using iFIT programs, you can manually
override the speed and incline settings by
pressing the speed and incline buttons.
However, when the next “chirp” is heard, the
speed and/or incline will change to the next
settings of the program.
25. Always remove iFIT CDs and videos from your
CD player or VCR and disconnect your MP3
player when you are not using them.
26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the
treadmill regularly.
27. Never insert or drop any object into any
opening.

T
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with highperformance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-
cone spray or other substances to the walking
i
elt or the walking platform. Such substances will

deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive
wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
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.
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

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.

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 31).
In addition, the console features twelve preset pro
grams—four Walk programs, four Jog programs, and
four Run programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides
you through an effective workout. You can even create
Custom programs and save them for future use. The
console also offers four Heart Rate programs that control the speed and incline of the treadmill to help you
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings.
Note: The Heart Rate programs require the use of the
optional chest pulse sensor.
The console also features iFIT interactive technology.
Having iFIT technology is like having a personal trainer
in your home. Using a stereo audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your portable stereo, home stereo,
computer, or VCR and play special iFIT MP3, CD, and
video programs (iFIT MP3 programs, CDs, and videocassettes are available separately). iFIT programs automatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill
as a personal trainer guides you through every step of
your workout; high-energy music provides added motivation.
To purchase and download iFIT MP3 programs, go to www.iFIT.com. To purchase iFIT CDs
or videocassettes, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual.
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you
can also go to www.iFIT.com and access iFIT programs directly from our Web site. See www.iFIT.com
for more information.
Whether you select the manual mode or a program,
you can enjoy the shows of your choice on the personal television while you get in shape.

SOLUTION:
a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 13.
b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may become damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THEPOWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both
rear roller bolts 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 3 to 4 inches

OLUTION: a
S
. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons. While the incline is changing, re-
move the key. After a few seconds, re-insert the key. The treadmill will automatically rise to the
aximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline system.
m
PROBLEM: Television reception is poor
SOLUTION: a. For the television to operate properly, good reception is necessary. If you are using an antenna,
make sure that it is properly connected and adjusted for optimal reception. (See HOW TO CONNECT AN ANTENNA on page 11.)
b. Check for the problems listed below and follow the applicable instructions.
• 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.

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.
y
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.
