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.

1. With the help of a second person, carefully raise the

treadmill to the position shown.

Whilst a second person tips the treadmill to one side slightly and holds it, insert one of the Extension Legs (103) into the treadmill as shown. Make sure that the Extension Leg is turned so the Thick Base Pad (14) is on the bottom.

Next, tip the treadmill to the other side and insert the other Extension Leg (not shown) in the same way. Lower the side of the treadmill so that both Extension Legs (103) are resting flat on the floor.

2. With the help of a second person, carefully lower the

treadmill frame and then tip the Uprights (82) down as shown. Make sure that the Extension Legs (103) re-

main in the Uprights.

THE PERFORMANT LUBETMWALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be earthed. If it should malfunction or break

down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug.

Two power cords are included. Select the one that will fit your outlet. Refer to drawing 1, and plug the indicated end of the power cord into the socket on the treadmill. Refer to drawing

2. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Note: In Italy, an adapter (not included) must be used between the power cord and the outlet. Important: The

treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

Use only a power cord type H05VV-F with a conductor of at least 1mm

, with a country recognised plug and an appliance coupler.

DANGER: Improper connection of the

equipment-earthing 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 earthed. 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.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of features to help you get the most from your exercise. When the console is in the manual mode, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be controlled with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the LED track and the four displays will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in pulse sensor.

The console also features advanced iFIT.com interactive technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer right in your home. Using the included audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play special iFIT.com CD programs. iFIT.com CD 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. Each CD features two different programs designed by certified personal trainers.

In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (videocassettes are available separately). Video programs offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add the excitement of working out with a class and an instructor—the hottest new trend at health clubs.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can also go to our new internet site at www.iFIT.com and access even more programs. Choose from a selection of basic programs that interactively control the speed and incline of your treadmill to help you achieve your personal exercise goals. Or, use iFIT.com audio and video programs directly from our internet site. Visit www.iFIT.com for complete details and to learn about other iFIT.com features.

To purchase iFIT.com CD’s or iFIT.com videocassettes, call our Customer Service Department at 08457-089009. For information about other optional accessories, see page 17.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 10. To use iFIT.com CD or

video programs, refer to page 14. To use iFIT.com programs directly from our internet site, see page

16.

Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it.

CAUTION: Before operating the

console, read the following precautions.

• Do not stand on the walking belt when turning on the power.

• Always wear the clip (see the drawing above) whilst operating the treadmill.

• Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

Calories/watts/pulse display—This display

shows the approximate number of calories you have burned and your current power output in watts. (The console estimates watts by multiplying the number of calories you are burning per minute by an efficiency factor of 25%.) Every seven seconds, the display will change from one number to the other, as shown by the arrows in the display. This display will also show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 6 on this page).

Speed display—This display shows the speed of the walking belt.

Note: The speed display can show speed in either miles per hour or kilometres per hour. To change the unit of measurement, hold down the stop button whilst inserting the key into the console. An “E,” for english miles, or an “M,” for metric kilometres, will appear in the display. Press the speed ∆ button until the desired unit of measurement is selected. Remove and then reinsert the key.

place your hands on the metal contacts on the pulse bar. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts, and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts—

avoid moving your hands.

When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the cals/watts/pulse display will flash steadily and a series of dashes (— —) will appear. After a few seconds, your heart rate will be shown. For the

most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds.

When you are finished exercising, remove the key.

Step onto the foot rails, press the stop button, and remove the key from the console. Keep the key in a secure place. Note: If the displays and various

indicators on the console remain lit after the key is removed, the console is in the “demo” mode. Refer to page 17 and turn off the demo mode.

When you are finished using the treadmill, move the on/off switch near the power cord to the off position.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

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.

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

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.

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 minutes 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.

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals 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.
