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

an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. Plug the power cord into asurge 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 Sears store or call the telephone number

on the back 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 amoni=

toting 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, accelerate, or stop unexpect=

edly, 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-

tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having

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.

PROBLEM: The console displays remain lit when you remove the key from the console

SOLUTION: a. The console features a display demo mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a

store. If the displays remain lit when you remove the key, the demo mode is turned on. To turn off

the demo mode, hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays are still lit, see THE

INFORMATION MODE on page 17 to turn off the demo mode.

PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on

SOLUTION: a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 11.

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG

THE POWER CORD. Using the hex key, turn both

rear roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn.

When the walking belt is properly tightened, you

should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt

2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Be

careful to keep the walking belt centered. Then,

plug in the power cord, insert the key, and run the

key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the

walking belt has shifted to the left, use the hex

key to turn the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a

turn; if the walking belt has shifted to the right,

turn the bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be

careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Then,

plug in the power cord, insert the key, and run the

treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk-

ing belt is centered.

b. if the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-

move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.

Using the hex key, turn both rear roller bolts clock-

wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is cor-

rectly tightened, you should be able to lift each side

of the walking belt 2 to 3 in. (5 to 7 cm) off the

walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking

belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, insert

the key, and carefully walk on the treadmill for a

few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is prop-

erly tightened.

EXERCISE GUiDELiNES

WARN ING: Beforebeginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physi-

cian. This is especially important for persons

over the age of 35 or persons with pre-exist-

ing health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors may affect the accuracy of

heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is in-

tended only as an exercise aid in determining

heart rate trends in general.

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.

165 155 145 140 130 125 115 (_

145 138 130 125 118 110 103 _

125 120 115 110 105 95 90

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 ca/ofiesfor energy. Only after

the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin

to use stored fatca/oriesfor 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 GUIDEUNES

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.

EXERCISEFREQUENCY

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.
