lowing important safety precautions and information before operating the treadmill.
1. Position the treadmill on a ie_,el surface, with at least 8 feet of clearance behind the treadmill. Do not
place the treadmill near water, outdoors or on any surface that blocks an air opening. Do not operate
where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.
.
When connecting the power cord (see PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD on page 6 and 7), plug the
power cord directly into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 12 or more amps. No other appliance
should be on the same circuit. Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces. If an extension cord
is needed, use only a 14-gauge general-purpose cord of five feet or less in length with a three-wire
conductor.
3. 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.)
4. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when using the treadmill; do not wear loose clothing that could
become caught in the treadmill. Always wear athletic shoes; never use the treadmill with bare feet,
vvea'}ing only stockings or in sandals. Athletic support clothes are recommended for both men and
women.
5. The pulse earclip is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user's movement while exercising, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The earclip is intended only as an exercise aid
in determining heart rate trends in general.
6. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrail when
exercising on the treadmill
7. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time. The treadmill should not be used by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

WALKING PLATFORM
IMPORTANT: This treadmill features a maintenance-free walking platform. After completion of the following
break-in procedure, the walking platform requires no further maintenance: The walking platform must be broken
in completely so that the coating on the walking platform impregnates the walking belt. If this is not done, the
treadmill may function erratically. Follow the steps below to break in the walking platform completely.
1. Adjust the incline of the treadmill to the highest setting. (See pages 8 and 9.)
2. Adjust the speed of the walking belt to about 3 or 4 miles per hour. (See page 8.) Hold the handrail and begin
walking on the treadmill. Be sure to walk on all areas of the walking belt--not only on the center. Continue
for 5to 10 minutes, or until the walking belt no longer slows as you walk.
3. To complete the break-in procedure, first stop the walking belt
and unplug thepower cord. Lift each side of the walking belt
and apply the included lubricant generously to the area of the
walking platform shown at the right. This one-time application
completes the break-in of the maintenance-free walking platform.
IMPORTANT: The included 100% silicone lubricant is specially
formulated for this one-time application. Do not apply any other silicone lubricant or spray. Such substances may damage the walking platform and cause excessivewear or premature failure of the

CONDITIONING
GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you, to plan your exercise program. Remember
that proper n_dtion and ade-
quate rest are essential for successful results.
WARNING: Before
beginning
thisoranyexercise
program,
consult
yourphysician. Thisis
especially
important
for individuals
over the age of 35 or individuals
with pre-existing
health problems.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
To maximize the benefits of exercising, it is important to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper intensity
level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate should be
maintained at a level between 70% and 85% of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is known as your
training zone. You can find your training zone in the table below.

•
During the first few months of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low end of your training zone
as you exercise. After a few months of regular exercise, your heart rate can be increased gradually until it is near
the middle of your training zone as you exercise. You can measure your heart rate using the pulse mode of the
console. Exercise for at least four minutes, and then measure your heart rate immediately. If your heart rate is too
high, decrease the intensity of your exercise, if your heart rate is too low, increase the intensity of your exercise.

|_1! |_I!L_: The pulse earclip is not a medical device. Various factors, including your movement during exercise, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The earclip is intended only as an
exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Eacll Wo_olA should consist of three_)asic parts: a warm-up, 20 to 30 minutes of training zone exercise, and a
cool-down. Warming up prepares the body for exercise by increasing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the
muscles and raising the body temperature. Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up. Then, increase the intensity of your exercise to raise your heart rate to your training zone for 20
to 30 minutes. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise--never hold your breath. Finish each workout with 5
to 10 minutes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility of your muscles as wellas help to
decrease soreness and other post-exercise problems.
To m&intain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between
workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired.
The key to success is CONSISTENCY.
