yProper Location for Equipment

àFor all equipment other than treadmills: Locate at least 40 inches (1 meter) away from walls or furniture on either side of the equipment, and 40 inches (1 meter) away from objects behind the equipment.

àFor treadmills: Locate at least 40 inches (1 meter) away from walls or furniture on either side of the treadmill, and at least 80 inches (2 meters) away from objects behind the treadmill.

Important: These location standards should also be used when positioning equipment away from sources of heat, such as radiators, heat registers, and stoves. Avoid temperature extremes.

yKeep equipment away from water and moisture. Avoid dropping anything on or spilling anything inside the equipment to prevent electric shock or damage to the electronics.

yWhen using the treadmill, always attach the safety clip to your clothing before beginning your workout. Failure to use the safety clip may pose a greater risk of injury in the event of a fall.

yDo not operate electrically powered equipment in damp or wet locations.

yNever operate this equipment if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped, damaged, or exposed to water. Call for service immediately if any of these conditions exist.

yMaintain the equipment to keep it in good working condition, as described in the Maintenance section of the assembly and maintenance guide. Inspect the equipment for incorrect, worn, or loose components, and then correct, replace or tighten prior to use.

yIf you plan to move the equipment, obtain help and use proper lifting techniques.

yEquipment Weight Restrictions: Do not use the treadmill if you weigh more than 500 pounds (225 kg). If you weigh more than 350 pounds (160 kg), do not run on the treadmill. For all other fitness equipment, the weight limit is 350 pounds (160 kg).

8	Operating and Maintaining the P80 Console

Electrical Recommendations: 120 V and

240 V Treadmills

Note: This is a recommendation only. NEC (National Electric Code) guidelines or local region electric codes must be followed.

You should have received a power cable that meets your local electrical code requirements along with the equipment. Precor treadmills must be connected to a 20 amp individual branch circuit that can be shared only with one PVS. If you need additional help with the power connections contact your Precor authorized dealer.

Important: An individual branch circuit provides a hot conductor and neutral conductor to a receptacle. The conductors must not be looped, "daisy-chained", or connected to any other conductors. The circuit must be grounded according to NEC guidelines or local region electric codes.

Figure 2: North American 240-volt, 20-amp power receptacle

14	Operating and Maintaining the P80 Console

Electrical Recommendations: All Equipment

Excluding Treadmills

Note: This is a recommendation only. NEC (National Electric Code) guidelines or local region electric codes must be followed.

For equipment fitted with a P80 console or Personal Viewing System (PVS) screen a separate power connection is required. For a 20 amp branch circuit up to 10 screens can be connected. If the branch circuit has any other devices plugged into the circuit the number of screens must be reduced by the wattage of the other devices.

Note: The typical splitter power cords that have IEC-320 C13 and C14 plugs have a recommended maximum capacity of five screens.

Chapter 1

Getting Started

Important: Not all settings are currently available in this release. More features will be available in future software updates.

The P80 console offers administrators and users the ability to set default settings that meet their specific needs. To accomplish this, the console supports settings for different classes of users depending on their administrative rights.

yA guest user exercises on a piece of equipment without signing in or creating a user profile.

yA registered user uses a sign-in password or Preva™ Pass and creates a user profile.

yA registered service technician uses a sign-in password or Preva™ Pass with extra permissions to administer console settings.

yAn administrator is always registered, uses a sign-in password or Preva™ Pass, and has full access to the console settings.

Changes to the Personal Information and Preference settings are saved to a registered user’s profile. An unregistered user can change preference settings; however, because they lack a user profile, those changes are not saved, and apply only to their current workout.

18	Operating and Maintaining the P80 Console

Identifying Parts of the Console

The following diagram provides information about the console keys. The number and actions of the console keys may differ slightly depending on the type of equipment.

Before beginning any fitness program, see your physician for a thorough physical examination. Seek advice from your physician to learn your the target heart rate appropriate fo r your fitness level. Do not allow children, or those unfamiliar with its the operation on or near of this equipment, on or near it. Read the product owner’s manual or consult a qualified instructor before operating this equipment. Improper use of this equipment can result in serious injury. If you feel pain, faintness, or dizziness, stop exercising immediately.

Figure 5: Restart switch

Instruct users on how important it is to use the safety clip while exercising on the treadmill, and demonstrate how they should attach it to their clothing near the waistline.

20	Operating and Maintaining the P80 Console

If the restart switch trips during exercise, perform the following steps:

1.Reattach the safety clip if necessary.

2.Press the restart switch down until it clicks, returning it to its normal position.

Note: If the restart switch trips, all information about the current workout is deleted.

3.Start the workout from the beginning, reducing the time as needed to account for the amount of exercise that has been completed.

Treadmill Auto Stop™ (Automatic Stop)

Function

Important: The default setting for this feature is ON. An administrator can turn off this feature in the System Settings; however, Precor recommends it remain ON.

The Auto Stop™ (Automatic Stop) feature is designed to bring the treadmill to a gradual stop when it is not in use. This might occur if a user steps off the treadmill before the end of a workout and leaves the treadmill running.

Sixty seconds after a treadmill workout starts or resumes, the equipment begins Auto Stop monitoring. If a user is detected, then no message appears, and the selected workout continues.

If no user is detected after an additional 30 seconds, the console displays the message NO USER DETECTED, STOPPING IN 10 SECONDS as notification of the pending stop. During the display of this message, a ten second countdown begins. If a user does not override the countdown, the belt comes to a gradual stop after the countdown is complete.

Note: Users weighing more than 90 pounds (41 kg) are detected within the speed and position limits of the feature. Users weighing 50 pounds (22.7 kg) to 89 pounds (40.5 kg) may not be detected depending on their speed and location. Always be aware of and follow the console’s instructions for proper operation.
