DANGER
WARN ING
When using the treadmill, always take basic precautions,
including the following:
• Read all instructions before using the treadmill. These
instructions are written for your safety and to protect the
unit.
• Before beginning any fitness program, see your
physician for a complete physical examination.
Il est conseillé de subir un examen médical complet
avant d’entreprendre tout programme d’exercise. Si
vous avez des étourdissements ou des faiblesses,
arrêtez les exercices immédiatement.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock
always unplug the treadmill from the
electrical outlet immediately after
using and before cleaning.
To reduce the risk of burns, fire,
electric shock, or injury, take the
following precautions:
• Do not allow children or those unfamiliar with its
operation on or near the treadmill. Do not leave children
unsupervised around the unit.
• Never leave the treadmill unattended when it is plugged
in. Unplug the treadmill from the power source when it is
not in use, before cleaning it, and before acquiring
authorized service.
• Assemble and operate the treadmill on a solid, level
surface. Locate the treadmill a few feet from walls or
furniture. Keep the area behind the treadmill clear.
• Maintain the treadmill in good working condition. Refer
to the Maintenance section. Make sure that all fasteners
are secure and the running belt is clean and running
smoothly.
• Use the treadmill only for its intended purpose as
described in this manual. Do not use accessory
attachments that are not recommended by the
manufacturer, as such attachments may cause injuries.
• Never operate the unit if it is damaged, not working
properly, when it has been dropped, or has been
dropped in water. Return the treadmill to a service
center for examination and repair.
• Keep the power cord and plug away from heated
surfaces.
• Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol (spray)
products are being used or where oxygen is being
administered.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Owner’s Manual: Important Safety Instructions 1
• Do not use outdoors.
DANGER
• Do not attempt to service the treadmill yourself except to
follow the maintenance instructions found in this manual.
• Never drop or insert objects into any opening. Keep
hands away from moving parts.
• Keep all electrical components, such as the power
cord and I/O switch, away from liquids to prevent shock.
• Do not set anything on the handrails, display console,
or hood. Place liquids, magazines, and books in the
appropriate receptacles.
• Do not rock the unit. Do not stand on the handrail(s),
display console, or hood.
The treadmill must be connected to a
dedicated, grounded circuit. See
Grounding Instructions.
• Wear proper exercise clothing and shoes for your
workout and avoid loose clothing. Do not wear shoes
with heels or leather soles. Check the soles of your
shoes and remove any dirt and embedded stones. Tie
long hair back.
• Use care when getting on or off the treadmill. Always
grasp the handrail when stepping on the running belt
and keep the initial speed at or below 1 mile per hour
(mph) or 1 kilometer per hour (kph). Never step off the
treadmill while the running belt is moving.
• Before the running belt begins moving (before your
workout), and after it stops (at the end of your workout),
straddle the belt by placing your feet firmly on the right
and left staging platforms.
• Keep your body and head facing forward. Never attempt
to turn around on the treadmill.
• The safety clip must be attached at waist level before
your workout. A lanyard connects to the magnetic safety
key near the red STOP button. If you encounter
difficulties, a strong tug on the lanyard disengages the
magnetic safety key and stops the running belt.
• Do not overexert yourself or work to exhaustion. If you
feel any pain or abnormal symptoms, stop your workout
immediately and consult your physician.
• When the treadmill is not in use, disconnect the unit by
turning the power switch to the Off position, and then
remove the power plug from the power outlet.

Note: When a signal is detected, a number flashes in the
HEART RATE display and indicates your heart rate.
• Always face forward on the treadmill and use the handrail
for balance. Keep upper body movement to a minimum.
Wearing a Chest Strap
During a workout, the heart rate features appear on the
display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an accurate
reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct contact with
your skin.
1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap water
Refer to Diagram 7.
Important: Do not use deionized water. It does not have
the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical
impulses.
Diagram 7: Moisten chest strap
2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest. The
strap should feel snug, not restrictive. Refer to
Diagram 8.
.
Diagram 8: Adjust chest strap
3. Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies
horizontally across your chest, and is centered in the
middle of your chest. Refer to Diagram 9.
Diagram 9: Fasten chest strap
After you put on the chest strap, face the display console for
a minimum of 15 seconds. This allows the receiver in the
console to recognize the signal from the chest strap.
Owner’s Manual: Heart Rate Features 14
Using the Heart Rate
Touch-sensitive
handrail grips
Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips
While exercising, you must grasp both touch-sensitive
handrail grips for a minimum of five to ten seconds to
transmit your heart rate to the display. Refer to Diagram 10.
Diagram 10: Touch-sensitive handrail grips
Usually, the concentration of salts in a person’s perspiration
provides enough conductivity to transmit a signal to the
receiver inside the display console. However, some people,
because of body chemistry or erratic heart beats cannot use
the touch-sensitive heart rate feature on the treadmill. A
chest strap may provide better results.
Important: While exercising, do not grasp the touchsensitive handrail grips and wear the chest strap at the
same time. The touch-sensitive handrail grips override the
signals from the chest strap transmitter. If used together,
inconsistent readings may occur.
Using SmartRate
The SmartRate feature helps you monitor and maintain your
heart rate in the target zone best suited to your specific
needs. All 10 LEDs may light during a workout. When the
treadmill detects a heart rate, a single LED blinks and
indicates the zone that your heart rate is in.
Important: To use the SmartRate feature, you must choose
a program and enter your age during the setup phase of
your exercise session.
The 10 LEDs in the SmartRate display are color-coded. A
pulsating orange LED indicates you are outside the
recommended heart rate target zone. Green LEDs indicate
when you are exercising within the recommended fat burn or
cardio fitness zones.
Owner’s Manual: Heart Rate Features 15
Table 1 shows the percents used in calculating the heart rate
target zones. While your heart rate remains within these
zones, the corresponding lights blink and provide a visual cue.
The calculation used to determine your maximum aerobic heart
rate is (220 minus your age). When you multiply it by the
percent indicated in Table 1, you can understand the relationship between the pulsating LED and your target heart rate.
CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed 85% of
your maximum aerobic heart rate or go above PEAK. If it
does, immediately reduce your pace or adjust the incline
to return your heart rate to your physician-recommended
target zone.

The SmartRate indicator lights do not appear when:
• You press QUICKSTART at the banner.
• You do not enter your age before starting a program.
• You do not wear or improperly position the chest strap.
• You fail to grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips for
five to ten seconds.
Owner’s Manual: Heart Rate Features 16
Exercise to Your Target Heart Rate
A heart rate receiver is an integral part of the display so you
can monitor your heart rate while exercising. If you wear a
chest strap or grasp both touch-sensitive handrail grips, your
heart rate (beats per minute) appears on the display.
The Precor web site (www.precor.com) has several
suggestions for workouts with varying levels of intensity. It
provides many workout details that include the appropriate
target heart rate.
Heart Rate Analysis
Every time you complete a program using the chest strap or
touch-sensitive handrail grips, the treadmill provides a heart
rate analysis after the workout summary.
Your average heart rate appears followed by the maximum
heart rate achieved during your workout. A third display
appears, if you entered your age, and indicates the amount of
time your heart rate remained between the target zones
shown.
The treadmill includes several programs that let you exercise
based on a specified target heart rate. As you exercise, the
heart rate programs monitor your heart rate and
automatically maintain it within a few beats per minute (bpm)
The heart rate analysis is based on how often your heart rate
signal is received while exercising. If you use the chest strap,
the average heart rate will be more accurate than if you
occasionally grasp the touch-sensitive handrail grips.
