8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth­ing 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.
9. When connecting the power cord (see page 7), 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.
10.Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 7. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local PROFORM dealer or call 1-800-806­3651 and order part number 146148.
11. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the con­trol 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.
12.Keep the power cord and the surge suppres­sor away from heated surfaces.
13.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 tread­mill is not working properly.)
14.Never start the treadmill while you are stand­ing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.
15.The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.
16. Do not use the hand weights at speeds faster than walking speeds. Using hand weights and not holding the handrails may compromise your ability to maintain your balance. Exercises using hand weights should be at­tempted only by experienced users.
17.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.
18.Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord, and move the on/off switch to the off position when the treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the loca­tion of the on/off switch.)

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. Such substances 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 suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local PROFORM dealer or call 1-800-806-3651 and order part number 146148.
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup­pressor (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 indi­cate 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 unexpect­edly, 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 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 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 illus­trated 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.
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.

TREADMILL OPERATION
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive selection 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 changed with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the four displays will show your workout time, the number of calories you have burned, the distance you have walked, the incline level of the treadmill, and the speed of the walk­ing belt. The console will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the op­tional chest pulse sensor (see page 20).
The console also offers eight preset workout programs. Each program automatically controls the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effec­tive workout. The included hand weights can be used for upper body exercise as well. Two pulse programs are also offered. Each program automatically adjusts the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a preset range during your workout.
The console also features new 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 CDs are avail-
able separately). 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 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 Web site at www.iFIT.com and ac­cess basic programs, audio programs, and video pro­grams directly from the internet. Additional options are soon to be available. See www.iFIT.com for details.
To purchase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, call toll­free 1-800-735-0768. For information about an optional chest pulse sensor, see page 20.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 10. To use preset programs, see page 12. To use pulse programs, see page 13. To
use iFIT.com CD or video programs, see page 17. To use iFIT.com programs directly from our Web site, see page 19.
Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it.

HOW TO USE THE PRESET PROGRAMS
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10.
Select one of the eight preset programs.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select one of the preset pro­grams, press the Select Workout button repeatedly until one of the eight preset program indicators lights. When a preset program is se­lected, the Distance/Incline display will flash the maximum incline setting for the program for six seconds, and the Speed display will flash the maximum speed setting.
The profiles printed on the right side of the console show how the speed and incline of the treadmill will change during the preset programs. The numbers at the left ends of the profiles show the speed and incline ranges for the programs. The program dis­play will show a simplified profile of the program. The Time/Segment Time display will show how long the selected program will last.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread­mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time seg­ments of different lengths. The Time/Segment Time display shows both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment. One speed setting and one incline set­ting are programmed for each segment. The speed setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment col­umn of the program display. (The incline settings are not shown
in the program display.) The speed settings for the next five segments will be shown in the five columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg­ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a tone will sound. In addition, if the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the Speed display and/or the Distance/Incline display will flash to alert you, and three tones will sound. When the first segment is completed, all speed settings will move one column to the left. The speed setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the second seg­ment.
The program will continue in this way until the speed setting for the final segment is shown in the Current Segment column and no time remains in the Time/Segment Time display. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
Note: Each time a segment ends and the speed settings move one column to the left, if all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings will move downward so that only the highest indicators in the columns will appear in the program display. When the speed settings move to the left again and not all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings will move back up.
If the speed or incline setting for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Speed or Incline buttons on the console. Every few times one of the Speed buttons is pressed, an additional indicator will light or darken in the Current Segment column. If any of the columns to the right of the Current Segment column have the same number of lit indicators as the Current Segment column, an additional indicator will light or darken in those columns as well. Note: If you manually adjust the speed setting so that all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings in the program display will not move downward as described above. When the current segment of
the program ends, the treadmill will automati­cally adjust to the speed and incline settings for the next segment.

If one of the three cross training programs is se­lected, the Cross Training Indicator below the Time/ Segment Time display will periodically flash. While the indicator is flashing, use the included hand weights for upper body exercise as you walk on the treadmill.
Follow your progress with the four displays.
Refer to step 5 on page 11.
When the program has ended, remove the key.
Step onto the foot rails and make sure that the in­cline of the treadmill is at the lowest setting. The
incline must be at the lowest setting when the treadmill is raised to the storage position. Next,
remove the key from the console and put it in a se­cure place. Note: If the displays and indicators
on the console remain lit after the key is re­moved, the console is in the “demo” mode. Refer to page 20 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 and unplug the power cord.
HOW TO USE THE PULSE PROGRAMS
Insert the key into the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10.
Put on the optional chest pulse sensor. To use a pulse program, you must wear the op-
tional chest pulse sensor (see page 20). To put
on the chest pulse sensor, follow the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor.
Select one of the two pulse programs.
When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select one of the pulse programs, press the Select Workout button repeatedly until one of the two pulse program indi­cators lights.
The profiles on the console show how the target heart rate will change during the programs. The program display will show a simplified profile of the program. The Time/Segment Time display will show how long the selected program will last.
Enter your age.
When a pulse program is se­lected, the word AGE will appear in the Pulse/ Calories display. If you have al­ready entered your age, simply press the Enter button. If you have not entered your age, press the + or – button. The current age setting will then ap­pear in the display. Press the buttons again to enter your age. The buttons can be held down to enter your age quickly. When your age is shown, press the Enter button.

WARNING:Using hand
weights and not holding the handrails may compromise your ability to maintain your balance. Exercises using hand weights should be attempted only by experienced users.
WARNING:If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and have been inactive, do not use the pulse pro­grams. If you are taking medication regularly, consult your physician to find whether the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.
Enter a maximum heart rate setting.
After you have entered your age, the letters PLS will appear in the Pulse/ Calories display. Press the + or – button. A number will then appear in the display. This number is the maximum heart rate setting for the program. If Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to 85% of your maximum possible heart rate; if Pulse program 2 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to 80% of your maximum possible heart rate.
Note: Your maximum possible heart rate is esti­mated by subtracting your age from 220. For ex­ample, if you are 30 years old, your maximum pos­sible heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 – 30 = 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from 123 to 161 beats per minute (65% of 190 is 123; 85% of 190 is 161).
If you want to change the maximum heart rate set­ting, press the + and – buttons. The buttons can be held down to change the setting quickly. When the desired setting is shown, press the Enter button.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread­mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking.
Each program is divided into several time segments of different lengths. The Time/Segment Time dis­play will show both the time remaining in the pro­gram and the time remaining in the current seg­ment. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. The heart rate setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment col­umn of the program display. The heart rate settings for the next five segments will be shown in the five columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg­ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash, a se­ries of tones will sound, and the Speed display and the Distance/Incline display will flash. When the first segment is completed, all heart rate set­tings will move one column to the left. The heart rate setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column, and the speed and/or incline of the treadmill will change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to the heart rate setting for the second segment.
The program will continue until no time remains in the Time/Segment Time display. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting for the current seg­ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set­ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if you decrease the speed, the incline will automati­cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in­cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will increase. The treadmill will always attempt to keep your heart rate near the target heart rate setting for the current segment. Note: When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased any further. When the incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can­not be decreased any further.
If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters PLS will flash in the Pulse/Calories dis­play. In addition, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, refer to the instruc­tions included with the chest pulse sensor.
Pulse programs cannot be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button.
Follow your progress with the four displays.
Refer to step 5 on page 11.
When the program has ended, remove the key.

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 highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sen­sor (see page 20). If your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed or incline of the treadmill.
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-
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 or incline of the tread­mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed or 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 or 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.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES
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 to­ward 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 tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
