21. When using i-Fit.com CD’s and videos, an
electronic “chirping” sound will alert you
when the speed and/or incline of the treadmill
is about to change. Always listen for the
“chirp” and be prepared for speed and/or in­cline changes. In some instances, the speed
and/or incline may change before the per­sonal trainer describes the change.

22. When using i-Fit.com CD’s 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.

23. Always remove i-Fit.com CD’s and videos
from your CD player or VCR when you are not
using them.

24. Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill
regularly.

25. Never insert or drop any object into any
opening.

26.

cord immediately after use, before cleaning
the treadmill, and before performing the main­tenance and adjustment procedures de­scribed 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.

27. This treadmill is intended for in-home use
only. Do not use this treadmill in any commer­cial, rental, or institutional setting.

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 the included allen wrench
and your own phillips screwdriver .

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 upright position.

While a second person tips the treadmill to one side 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 Warning Decal (20) is on the top.

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.

See HOW TO LOWER THE TREADMILL FOR USE on
page 14.

Attach each Extension Leg (103) with two long Screws
(101) and a Thin Base Pad (127) as shown.

With the help of a second person, carefully tip the
Uprights (82) back to the vertical position.

Note: One replacement Thin Base Pad (127) and
Spacer (not shown) are included. If a Thin Base Pad
(127) becomes worn and needs to be replaced, use the
replacement Base Pad. If a Thick Base Pad (97) needs
to be replaced, use the replacement Base Pad with the
Spacer.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBETMWALKING 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 platform.
They will deteriorate the walking belt and cause ex­cessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

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 appliances
being turned on or off.

To decrease the pos­sibility of your tread­mill being damaged,
always use a surge
protector (not in­cluded) with your
treadmill.

Surge protectors are
sold at most hardware
stores and department
stores. Use only a CUL­listed surge protector,
rated at 15 amps, with a
14-gauge cord of five
feet or less in length.

This product must be
grounded. If it should

malfunction or break
down, grounding 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-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge

protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap­propriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus­trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep­tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out­let is not available.

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

DANGER:Improper connection

of the equipment-grounding 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 grounded. 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.
