following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this treadmill are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions.

2. Use the treadmill only as described.

Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at least eight feet of clearance behind it and two 13.

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 250 pounds.

8. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

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.

12.

Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the con- trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys- tem is damaged, the walking belt may change speed or stop unexpectedly, which may result

in a fall and serious injury.

Keep the power cord and the surge suppres- sor 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

BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the tread-

mill is not working properly.)

15.

Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the

handrails while using the treadmill.

16.

The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

17.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user's move-

ment, 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.

18.

Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord and move the on/off circuit

breaker to the off position when the treadmill

is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the location of the on/off circuit breaker.)

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 9), 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 9. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local Sears or call 1-800-366-7278 and order part number 146148.

19.

Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 22.) You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

20. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by placing objects under the treadmill.

21. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

Page 4

22.

When using iFIT.com CDs and videos, an 25. electronic "chirping" sound will alert you when the speed and/or incline of the treadmill

is about to change. Always listen for the 26. "chirp" and be prepared for speed and/or in- cline changes. In some instances, the speed and/or incline may change before the per- 27.

sonal trainer describes the change.

23.

When using iFIT.com CDs and videos, you

can manually override the speed and incline

settings at any time 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 CD or video

program.

Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly.

Never insert or drop any object into any opening.

DANGER: Always unplug the power

cord immediately after use, before cleaning the treadmill, and before performing the main- tenance and adjustment procedures de-

scribed in this manual. Never remove the motor hood unless instructed to do so by an

authorized service representative. Servicing other than the procedures in this manual should be performed by an authorized service representative only.

24. Always remove iFIT.com CDs and videos from your CD player or VCR when you are not

using them.

28. This treadmill is intended for in-home use

only. Do not use this treadmill in any commer- cial, rental, or institutional setting.

WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This

is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all instructions before using. Sears assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBE TM, a high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other

substances to the walking belt or the walking plat- form. 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 service- man if you are in doubt as to whether the

product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the productmif 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 appli- ances being turned on or off. To decrease the pos- sibility of your treadmill being damaged, always

use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge sup- pressor, see your local Sears or call 1-800-366- 7278 and order part number 146148.

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 illus- trated 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.

Grounded Outlet Box

Adapter A

( _/' Z_,,_I Surge _uppressor

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup- pressor (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 indi- cate 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 or stop unexpect- edly, 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

Metal Screw

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 elec-

trician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

manual mode will be selected. To select a

heart rate pro- gram, press the Program button repeatedly until one of the two heart rate program indicators lights.

The two profiles on the left side of the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. The numbers above the profiles represent percentages of your estimated maxi-

mum heart rate. Note: Your estimated maximum heart rate is determined by subtracting your age

from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 - 30 = 190). If you are 30 years old, a target heart rate setting of 50% is equal to 95 beats per minute (50% of 190 is 95).

Page 15

During heart rate pro- grams, the program

display will show a graphic that represents your heart rate. Each

time a heartbeat is de- tected, an additional

peak will appear.

Enter your age.

When a heart rate pro- gram is selected, the let-

ters AGE and the current

age setting will begin to flash in the Calories/

Fat Calories/Heart Rate

display. You must enter your age to use a heart

rate program. If you have already entered your

age, go to step 5. If you have not entered your

age, press the Incline (Age Set) buttons until your

age is shown. Your age will then be saved in mem- ory.

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 de- crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maxi- mum speed limit for the program (see step 6 at the left) 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.

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 change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

_.'_ Adjust the maximum speed limit for the

program.

When a heart rate pro- gram is selected, the let- ters SPd (speed) and the

maximum speed limit for the program will flash in the Speed/Min-Mile dis-

play. If desired, change the maximum speed limit

by pressing the Quick Speed buttons.

r_ ress the Start button or the Speed 2_button to

start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and

and begin walking.

Each heart rate program is divided into one-minute

segments. (The Time/Incline/Segment Time dis-

play will show both the time remaining in the pro- gram and the time remaining in the current seg-

ment of the program.) One target heart rate set- ting is programmed for each segment. (The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for

consecutive segments.)

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

_ IA/Al_klakld _

_IHLW/'_I'_,_I,,_IIl_l"Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physi-

cian. This is especially important for individu- als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre- existing 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 ex- ercise program. For more detailed exercise informa- tion, 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 recom- mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

HEART RATE TRAINING ZONES

AEROBIC 165 155 145 !40 130 125 115 MAX FAT BURN 145 138 130 125 118 110 103

FAT BURN 125 120 !15 110 105 95 90

Age 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

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.

ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread- mill 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 sys- tem, 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 in- creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula- tion in preparation for exercise.

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.

To measure your heartrate during exercise, use the pulse sensor.

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 en-

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be- tween workouts. After a few months, you may com- plete 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.

Page 27

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch--never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees

and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot to-

ward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg.

Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back

foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move

your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
