3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at least 2.5 m (8 ft.) of clearance behind it and

0.5 m (2 ft.) 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 moisture 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 oxygen is administered.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should be used only by persons weighing 115 kg (250 lbs.) or less. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

13. Never start the treadmill whilst you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails whilst using the treadmill.

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

15. The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user’s movement, 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.

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes whilst 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.

ASSEMBLY

ssembly requires two persons.Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not

dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. 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.

Assembly requires the included hex keys and your own phillips screwdriver wire cutters , rubber mallet , and adjustable spanner .

For help identifying the assembly hardware, refer to the drawings below. Note: The assembly hardware and other small parts are packaged in separate part bags.

part bags are not labeled according to the order in which they are to be opened.) If a part is not found in the part bags, check to see if the part has been preassembled.

Do not open the part bags until instructed to do so. (The

Next, feed the Wire Harness (83) into the bottom of the Right Upright and pull it out of the hole in the top. Note: There may be a tie on the end of the Wire Harness to help you pull it through the hole.

Attach the Right Upright (82) to the bracket on the right side of the Base (109) with two 1 1/4” Bolts (104) and two Internal Star Washers (72). (Note: It may be helpful to use a rubber mallet to fully insert the Right Upright into the bracket.)

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

ubstances 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 power cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of features designed to help you get the most from your workouts.

Whilst the manual mode of the console is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display instant exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 23).

In addition, the console offers four preset programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effective workout. Two heart rate programs are also offered. Each program adjusts the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate whilst you exercise.

The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer in your home. Using the included audio

Clip

cable, you can connect the treadmill to your home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are available separately). iFIT.com CD and video 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. To pur-

chase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, visit our Web site at www.iconeurope.com.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and access programs directly from the internet. Additional op tions are soon to be available. See www.iFIT.com for
