ASSEMBLY
Assembly requires two people. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly requires your own Phillips screwdriver and rubber mallet .
Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal
condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off
the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
WARNING: Do not plug in the power
cord until the treadmill is completely assembled.

HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
the chest strap and the sensor unit (see the drawing
below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into
one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing. Press the end of the sensor unit under the buckle
on the chest strap. The tab should be flush with the
front of the sensor unit.
Chest Strap
Tabs
Tab
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.

dried. If the chest pulse sensor is not dried after
each use, it may remain activated longer than nec
essary, draining the battery prematurely.
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time; do not expose
it to temperatures above 50° C (122° F) or below
-10° C (14° F) .
• 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 sensor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulse
sensor does not function when positioned as described, move it slightly lower or higher.
• 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, re-wet the electrode areas.
• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position yourself near the centre 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 contrac
tions (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
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 26).

HOW TO USE HEART RATE PROGRAMS
CAUTION:If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and
have been inactive, do not use the heart rate
programs. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the
medication will affect your exercise heart rate.
Follow the steps below to use the heart rate programs.
Note: You must wear the chest pulse sensor to use
the heart rate programs.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.

When the key
is inserted, the
manual mode
will be selected. To select one of the
heart rate programs, press the Mode button repeatedly until one
of the two heart rate program indicators lights.
When the lower indicator is lit, the user-definable
heart rate program is selected. When the upper
indicator is lit, the preset heart rate program is selected.
The two profiles on the left side of the console
show the target heart rate settings for the programs. The numbers above the upper profile are
percentages of your estimated maximum heart
rate. (Your estimated maximum heart rate is de-
termined by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated
maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute.)
The user-definable program will last for 40 minutes. The preset program will last for 20 minutes.
During heart rate programs, the program dis
play will show a graphic
that represents your
heart rate. Each time a
heartbeat is detected,
an additional peak will
appear.
Enter your age.

When a heart rate program is selected, the letters
AGE and the current age setting will begin to flash
in the Calories/ Watts/Heart Rate display. You
must enter your age to use a heart rate program.
If you have not entered your
age, press the Incline buttons until your age is
shown. Your age will then be saved in memory.
If the preset program is selected, go to step 6.
Enter a target heart rate setting.

Press the Start button (pressing the button will not
start the program at this time). The letters PLS
and the target heart rate setting for the program,
in beats per minute, will
be shown in the Calories/
Watts/Heart Rate display.
If desired, you can
change the target heart
rate setting by pressing the Incline buttons. The
buttons can be held down to change the target
heart rate setting quickly. The target heart rate
setting can be from 50% to 85% of your estimated
maximum heart rate. For example, if you are 30
years old, the target heart rate setting can be from
95 to 161 beats per minute. (If you are 30 years
old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190.
50% of 190 is 95. 85% of 190 is 161.)
Adjust the maximum speed limit for the

The program will continue until no time remains in
the program. The walking belt will then slow to a
stop.
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too
low, you can adjust the setting with the speed or
incline buttons. However, each time the console
compares your heart rate to the current target
heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the
treadmill may automatically increase or decrease
to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate setting.

If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters PLS will flash in the Calories/Watts/
Heart Rate display and the speed and incline of
the treadmill may automatically decrease until
your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the instructions on page 8.
If the user-definable program is selected, the
Time/Incline/Segment Time display will show the
elapsed time. If the preset program is selected, the
display will show the time remaining in the program
and the time remaining in the current segment of
the program.
During the program, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the current target heart
rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or
above the target heart rate setting, the speed of
the treadmill will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target
heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maximum speed limit for the program (see step 6
above) and your heart rate is still too far below the
current target heart rate setting, the incline of the
treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
WARNING:Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individu
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
your 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 “training 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 carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes does your body
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal
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-exercise 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.
