Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If the treadmill’s
electrical system should malfunction or breakdown
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING
• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a 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.

Workouts
The workout must be suitably light, but of long
duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving
the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn
improves endurance and fitness. You should perspire,
but you should not get out of breath during the
workout.
To reach and maintain a basic fitness level, exercise at
least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time. Increase
the number of exercise sessions to improve your fitness
level. It is worthwhile to combine regular exercise with
a healthy diet. A person committed to dieting should
exercise daily, at first 30 minutes or less at a time,
gradually increasing the daily workout time to one hour.
Start your workout at low speed and low resistance to
prevent the cardiovascular system from being subjected
to excessive strain.
As the fitness level improves, speed and resistance can
be increased gradually. The efficiency of your exercise
can be measured by monitoring your heart rate and
your pulse rate.
Exercise Instructions
Using your fitness trainer will provide you with several
benefits, it will improve your physical fitness, tone
muscle and in conjunction with a calorie controlled diet
help you lose weight.
The warming up phase
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body
and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce
the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to do
a few stretching exercises as shown below. Each stretch
should be held for approximately 30 seconds, do not
force or jerk your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts,
STOP
The exercise phase
This is the stage where you put the effort in. After
regular use, the muscles in your legs will become
more flexible. Work to your but it is very important to
maintain a steady tempo throughout. The rate of work
should be sufficient to raise your heart beat into the
target zone shown on the graph below.

COOL DOWN
AGE
The cool down phase
This stage is to let your Cardiovascular System and
muscles wind down. This is a repeat of the warm
up exercise e.g. reduce your tempo, continue for
approximately 5 minutes. The stretching exercises
should now be repeated, again remembering not to
force or jerk your muscles into the stretch.
As you get fitter you may need to train longer and
harder. It is advisable to train at least three times a
week, and if possible space your workouts evenly
throughout the week.
Muscle toning
To tone muscle while on your fitness trainer you will
need to have the resistance set quite high. This will
put more strain on our leg muscles and may mean you
cannot train for as long as you would like. If you are also
trying to improve your fitness you need to alter your
training program. You should train as normal during the
warm up and cool down phases, but towards the end
of the exercise phase you should increase resistance
making your legs work harder. You will have to reduce
your speed to keep your heart rate in the target zone.
Weight loss
The important factor here is the amount of effort you
put in. The harder and longer you work the more
calories you will burn. Effectively this is the same as if
you were training to improve your fitness, the difference
is the goal.
Heart rate
Pulse rate measurement
(hand pulse sensors)
The pulse rate is measured by sensors in the handlebars
when the user is touching both sensors at the same
time. Accurate pulse measurement requires that the
skin is slightly moist and constantly touching the hand
pulse sensors. If the skin is too dry or too moist, the
pulse rate measurement will become less accurate.
Maximum heart rate
(during training)
The maximum heart rate is the highest heart rate a
person can safely achieve through exercise stress. The
following formula is used to calculate the average
maximum heart rate: 220 - AGE. The maximum heart
rate varies from person to person.
WARNING
• Make sure that you do not exceed your maximum
heart rate during your workout. If you belong to a
risk group, consult a physician.
16
Beginner
50-60% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for beginners, weight-watchers, convalescents
and persons who have not exercised for a long time.
Exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a
time.
Advanced
60-70% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for persons who want to improve and maintain
fitness. Exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes
at a time.
Expert
70-80% of maximum heart rate
Suitable for the fittest of persons who are used to longendurance workouts.
Use
Master power switch (fig. D-A)

Circuit breaker (Fig. D-B)
The equipment is equipped with a circuit breaker that
interrupts the circuit when the electricity load is above
the maximum capacity. When this occurs, the circuit
breaker must be pressed.
WARNING
• Before pressing the circuit breaker, remove the
mains plug from the equipment.
English
If the equipment shuts down, proceed as follows to
restart the equipment:
-Remove the mains plug from the equipment.
-Press the circuit breaker to restart the equipment.
-Insert the mains plug into the equipment.
NOTE
• Some circuit breakers used in homes are not rated
for high inrush currents that can occur when a
treadmill is first turned on or even during normal
use. If your treadmill is tripping the circuit breaker
(even though it is the proper current rating and the
treadmill is the only appliance on the circuit) but
the circuit breaker on the treadmill itself does not
trip, you will need to replace the breaker with a
high inrush type. This is not a warranty defect. This
is a condition we as a manufacture have no ability
to control.
