ASSEMBLY

Assembly 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, some lubricant may be transferred to the top of

the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is normal and does not affect treadmill performance, if there is lubri-

cant 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 _ ,

adjustable wrench _:_, needlenose pliers _ , and scissors _ .

Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is

the key number of the part, from the PART LiST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses

is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the hardware kit, check to see if it is preattached

to one of the parts to be assembled. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assem-

bly. Extra hardware may be included.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-

performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-

icone 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

tric 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

GFCl-equipped outlets.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,

and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-

trated 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.

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 NordicTrack dealer or call the telephone

number on the front cover of this manual and order

part number 146148, or see your local electronics

store.

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is

UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-

pressor (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 moni-

toring 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 slow, accelerate, 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 elec-

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 elec-

trician to determine if the outlet box cover is

grounded before using an adapter.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that

applies, and follow the steps listed, if further assistance is needed, see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor

is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 14). Use only a single-outlet surge suppres-

sor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14. IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not

compatible with GFCl-equipped outlets.

SOLUTION: a.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is inserted into the console.

Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the

treadmill frame near the power cord. If the switch

protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker has

tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five

minutes and then press the switch back in.

EXERCISE GUiDELiNES

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise

program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a

reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,

proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for

successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-

sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your

heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.

The chart below shows recommended heart rates for

fat burning and aerobic exercise.

165 I55 145 140 130 125 115 _)_

145 138 130 125 118 110 103 q.W)

125 120 115 110 105 95 90 W

20 30 40 50 60 70 80

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the

bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-

est ten years). The three numbers listed above your

age define your "training zone." The lowest number is

the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the

heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest

number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat--To burn fat effectively, you must exer-

cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of

time, During the first few minutes of exercise, your

body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after

the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin

to use stored fat calories for energy, If your goal is to

burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your

heart rate is near the lowest number in your training

zone, For maximum fat burning, exercise with your

heart rate near the middle number in your training

zone.

Aerobic Exercise--if your goal is to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exer-

cise, which is activity that requires large amounts of

oxygen for prolonged periods of time, For aerobic ex-

ercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your

heart rate is near the highest number in your training

zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up--Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise, A warm-up increases your body

temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation

for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise--Exercise for 20 to 30 min-

utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During

the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not

keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer

than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you

exercise-never hold your breath.

Cooling Down--Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-

ing, Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles

and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three

workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-

tween workouts. After a few months of regular exer-

cise, you may complete up to five workouts each

week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to

make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your

everyday life.
