Safety Instructions
CAUTION—to reduce the risk of burns, fire
and electric shock and injury to persons:
Do’s:
•
An appliance should never be left unattended when plugged in. Unplug from outlet
when not in use and before putting on or taking off parts.
•
Use this treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual.
•
Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
•
To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove the plug from the
outlet.
•
Servicing is to be done with appliance disconnected from the supply circuit.
•
Avoid the possibility of bystanders being struck or caught between moving parts by
making sure that they are out of reach of the treadmill while it is in motion.
•
Caution: Risk of injury to person—to avoid injury, stand on the side rails before
starting treadmill.
•
Make sure the power cord has enough slack to allow the treadmill to raise freely
without being limited by the cord or caught in the incline rack. Do not run power
cord under treadmill.
•
Use treadmill indoors only.
•
Use a dedicated 120/230 VAC, 20 amp, 3-prong, grounded outlet circuit.
•
Allow only trained personnel to service this equipment.
•
Consult your physician to determine your target heart rate.
•
Adjust your own speed and grade unless under the supervision of a trainer, physical
therapist or other qualified person.
•
Keep the area under the treadmill free from obstructions because the deck returns to
0% grade when the SAFETY KEY is inserted. Failure to do so could cause personal
injury or damage to the machine.
•
Keep the space behind and on both sides of the treadmill clear in the event you lose
your balance.
•
Allow only ONE person at a time on your machine. More than one person using the
treadmill at a time may cause damage to the machine.
•
Gradually slow down the belt before stopping it. This will minimize the sensation of
feeling like you are still moving after you stop.
•
When walking on tread belt to test tension, hold onto the handrails. Tread belt slip
can cause loss of balance.
•
Before starting treadmill, straddle tread belt.
•
When making tread belt adjustments, keep fingers, loose clothing, jewelry, and long
hair well out of the way of moving parts.
•
Use care when stepping onto tread belt. Some programs start at speeds as high as 4.8
MPH. If care is not taken, you may lose your balance.

Manual Mode
The manual mode allows you to set the duration of the workout or distance before
you start the workout. If you start the workout without setting any parameters, the
treadmill will automatically begin your workout at .5 MPH and 0% grade. You can
then manually change both the speed and grade at any time during the workout. You
may also monitor your heart rate with the heart rate contacts or the heart rate transmitter
strap (sold separately). Heart rate monitoring will not affect the workout.
Preliminary Instructions
1. Inspect the treadmill before using it.
CAUTION:
Keep area under the treadmill free from obstructions
because the deck returns to 0% grade when the SAFETY
KEY is placed. Failure to do so could cause personal
injury or damage to the machine.

Heart Rate Control (HRC)
Overview
Heart Rate Control
You are the owner of the most sophisticated Heart Rate Control treadmill available. TRUE
HRC is a unique, patented system. It accommodates a range of users from those in physical
rehabilitation to world class athletes, and all those in between. The TRUE HRC treadmill
allows you to do a completely hands free heart rate controlled workout using speed,
grade, or both. The user determines the key parameters of the HRC workout. By training
at a specific target heart rate, you can exercise at a more efficient cardiovascular level.
The TRUE HRC system is unique because you can enter the key parameters of your
workout: target heart rate, maximum speed, maximum grade, and time prior to beginning
your HRC workout. As you approach your target heart rate, the treadmill software takes
over and changes speed and/or grade to keep you near your target heart rate. This gives
you a completely hands free workout.
Recommendations
Before selecting a target heart rate control workout, it is important to use the treadmill for
several workouts in the manual mode while monitoring your heart rate. You can monitor
your heart rate during workouts by using the heart rate transmitter strap (sold separately).
Your heart rate will appear in the Message Center, and the heart will blink in the Dot
Matrix Window to indicate a signal is being received.
After you have spent some time learning how your heart reacts to different levels of speed
and grade, you will have a better understanding of how to select the maximum speed and
maximum grade required to reach your target heart rate.
CAUTION:
Consult your physician to determine your target heart rate.
La Prudence:
Consulter votre médecin pour déterminer votre taux de coeur
de cible.
Examples
#1 A user who physically cannot walk over 2.5 MPH can safely use heart rate
control by entering a maximum speed of 2.5 in a heart rate control workout
and a maximum grade of 10%.
#2 A runner can run up to a maximum speed of 10 MPH, without hills, by
entering a maximum speed of 10 MPH and a maximum grade of 0%.
#3 A walker enters a maximum speed of 4.0 MPH and a maximum grade of 6%.
The walker is limited to a maximum speed of 4.0 MPH and a grade of up to
6%.
The three following workout modes are variations of the heart rate controlled workout.
They vary in complexity of the workout. The Cruise Control Mode is the simplest and the
Interval Heart Rate Control Mode is the most complex.
62
Section D
Cruise Control
Cruise Control is similar to the manual workout. The difference is that when you are using
heart rate transmitter strap (sold separately) and you press , the treadmill will
adjust the speed and grade in order to maintain the heart rate at that level for the rest of
your workout. This is the simplest way to enter target heart rate training.
When working out in the HRC mode, the speed will increase until the maximum speed is
reached, then the grade will begin to increase. When lowering heart rate, the grade will
decrease first, followed by speed.
If you enter the HRC stage below 5 MPH, the speed you enter will be the maximum
speed of your workout, i.e., you like to walk at a maximum speed of 3.8 MPH, you should
enter HRC at 3.8 MPH.
If you enter the HRC stage at or above 5 MPH, you will have an additional 1 MPH added
to the speed that you entered, i.e., you enter HRC at 6 MPH, your maximum attainable
speed in the HRC stage will be 7 MPH.
If you do not enter the HRC stage with a grade, no grade will be available during the HRC
stage of your workout. Only speed will be used to control your heart rate.
If you enter the HRC stage with a grade, you will have an additional 4% of grade available
in the HRC stage, i.e., you enter the HRC stage at 1% grade your maximum attainable
grade will be 5%.
Examples of Walking Workouts
#1 Enter HRC at 3.5 MPH and 4% grade to allow a maximum speed of 3.5 MPH
and a maximum grade of 8%.
#2 Enter HRC at 4.2 MPH and 6% grade to allow a maximum speed of 4.2 MPH
and a maximum grade of 10%.
Examples of Running Workouts
#1 Enter HRC at 6 MPH and 0% grade to allow a maximum of speed 7 MPH and
no incline.
#2 Enter HRC at 5 MPH and 2% grade to allow a maximum speed of 6 MPH and
a maximum grade of 6%.

Warm-up Stage Instructions
The initial stage of the Heart Rate Control workout is the Warm-up Stage. The treadmill
operates in the manual mode during the Warm-up Stage, so you can control both speed
and grade. It is important that you start at a low level of exertion and gradually increase
your workload over several minutes until you approach your target heart rate. This
allows your body to adapt to your workout. Increasing your workload gradually allows
you to enter the Heart Rate Control Stage without overshooting your target. Warming
up too fast may cause you to overshoot your target. If this occurs, it may take several
minutes before the computer software can control your heart rate. You may overshoot
and undershoot your target for several minutes until control is achieved.
The Warm-up Stage is not predetermined by the amount of time input prior to workout.
You may take as much time as you wish to approach your target heart rate. The Warm-up
Stage ends when your heart rate is 10 beats below the pre-set target heart rate. At this
point, you enter the Heart Rate Control Stage, and the treadmill takes control of both
the speed and grade.

Heart Rate Control Stage Instructions
The Warm Up Stage ends when your heart rate is 10 beats from the Target Heart Rate. In
the Heart Rate Control Stage the treadmill software gradually increases your heart rate to
the target. It does this by increasing the speed in .1 MPH increments. If needed, the speed
will continue to increase up to the pre-set maximum speed. If your heart rate has not
reached your target heart rate, and you need an additional workload to raise your heart
rate, the grade will be raised in .5% increments up to the pre-set maximum grade (unless
0 grade was entered).
Whenever the workload needs to be reduced in order to lower your heart rate, the grade is
reduced first. The grade will be reduced to 0 (if required), before the speed is reduced.
When your heart rate is 10 beats away from your target, the following messages
will display in the Message Center one at a time:

Interval Heart Rate Control
(Interval HRC)
Interval Heart Rate Control (HRC)
Interval Heart Rate Control takes your workout to an even higher level than the Target
HRC workout. With this workout, you set periods of rest between periods of work.
You enter your target heart rate, maximum speed, duration of workout, duration of
work intervals, duration of rest intervals, and maximum grade. This is a time based
workout and the distance traveled will depend on your speed.
Interval workouts offer variety and help you attain higher levels of conditioning in a
shorter period of time.
It is recommended that you do not do an interval workout until you have used this
treadmill on a regular basis and have a working knowledge of your target heart rate
and fitness level.
Preliminary Instructions

Interval HRC
Heart Rate Control Stage
When your heart rate is within 10 beats of the target heart rate, the computer software
takes over the speed and grade allowing hands free operation. Hands free means that
you do not have to make adjustments on the Keyboard.
By taking control before you actually reach your target heart rate, the computer reduces
the chances of overshooting your target heart rate. It does this by increasing the speed
in .1 MPH increments. If needed, the speed will continue to increase up to the pre-set
maximum. If your heart rate has not reached your target heart rate and you need an
additional workload to raise your heart rate, the grade will be raised in .5% increments
up to the maximum pre-set grade (unless 0% grade was entered).
Whenever the workload needs to be reduced in order to lower your heart rate, the
grade is reduced first. The grade will be reduced to 0 (if required), before speed is
reduced.
As your heart rate increases or decreases from your target, the treadmill will automatically
make the adjustments to speed and and/or grade to keep your heart rate at your selected
target. The treadmill will monitor your heart rate and adjust the speed and /or grade
while in the work interval. When you enter the rest interval, there will be a 50% MET
reduction. Your work level will remain the same throughout the rest period. Your heart
rate will be monitored during this time, but there will be no adjustment to the speed or
grade in the rest interval.
When you return to the work interval, your speed will return to a calculated average of
the speeds and/or grades that were used in the previous work intervals. Your speed
and/or grade may increase or decrease while you are in your work interval. This averaging
of speed and/or grade enables you to return to a work level that will bring you near
your selected target heart rate.
When your heart rate is 10 beats away from your selected target heart rate, the following
messages will repeat themselves in the Message Center one at a time:
