ASSEMBLY

Make sure that the power cord is unplugged. 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, a small

amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal con-

dition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant 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 allen wrenches and your own phillips screwdriver ,

wire cutters , and adjustable wrench .

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 on pages 26 and 27. The number after the parentheses shows

the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it is preattached to one of

the parts to be assembled. If a part is missing, call toll-free 1-888-533-1333. To avoid damaging plastic

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

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 1-800-366-7278 and

order part number 146148, or see your local elec-

tronics 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 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

anequipment-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

GFCI-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.

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.

DANGER: Improper connection

of the equipment-grounding conductor can

result in an increased risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service-

man 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.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of

features designed to make your workouts more effec-

tive.

When the manual mode of the console is selected, the

speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with

the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will

display continuous exercise feedback. You can even

measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip

pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see

page 20).

In addition, the console features six preset programs.

Each program automatically controls the speed and in-

cline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effec-

tive workout. The console also offers two heart rate pro-

grams that control the speed and incline of the treadmill

to keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings

during your workouts. Note: The heart rate programs

require the use of the optional chest pulse sensor.

The console also features iFIT.com interactive technol-

ogy. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-

sonal trainer in your home. Using a stereo audio cable,

you can connect the treadmill to your portable stereo,

home stereo, computer, or VCR and play special

iFIT.com MP3, CD, and video programs (iFIT.com MP3

programs, CDs, and videocassettes are available sepa-

rately). iFIT.com programs automatically control the

speed and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer

guides you through every step of your workout; high-

energy music provides added motivation. To down-

load iFIT.com MP3 programs, go to www.iFIT.com.

To purchase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, call

toll-free 1-888-533-1333.

and begin walking.

Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-

ments. One speed setting and one incline setting

are programmed for each segment. Note: The

same speed setting and/or incline setting may be

programmed for two or more consecutive seg-

ments.

The speed

setting for

the first seg-

ment will be

shown in the

flashing

Current

Segment column of the matrix in the lower part of

the display. (The incline settings are not shown in

the matrix.) The speed settings for the next four

segmentswill be shown in the four columns to the

right.

When only three seconds remain in the first seg-

ment of the program, both the Current Segment

column and the column to the right will flash and a

series of tones will sound. If the speed and/or in-

cline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed

setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the

display to alert you.

When the first segment is completed,

all speed

settings will move one column to the left

.The

speed setting for the second segment will then be

shown in the flashing Current Segment column

and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the

speed and incline settings for the second seg-

ment. Note: If all five of the indicators in the

Current Segment column are lit,

the speed settings

may move downward

so that only the highest indi-

cators appear in the matrix.

The program will continue in this way until the

speed setting for the last segment is shown in the

Current Segment column and the last segment

ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

If the speed or incline setting for the current

segment is too high or too low, you can manually

override the setting by pressing the Speed or

Incline buttons. Every few times a Speed button is

pressed, an additional indicator will appear or dis-

appear in the Current Segment column; if any of

the columns to the right of the Current Segment

column have the same number of lit indicators as

the Current Segment column, an additional indica-

tor may appear or disappear in those columns as

well. Important: When the current segment of

the program ends, the treadmill will automati-

cally adjust to the speed and incline settings

for the next segment.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop

button. To restart the program, press the Start but-

ton or the Quick Speed increase button. The walk-

ing belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the next

segment of the program begins, the treadmill will

Enter a target heart rate setting.

If the Interval program

is selected, the maxi-

mum target heart rate

setting of the program

will appear in the dis-

play. If desired, press

the Heart Rate increase and decrease buttons to

change the maximum target heart rate setting

(see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 24). Note:

If the maximum target heart rate setting is

changed, the intensity level of the entire program

will change.

If the Endurance pro-

gram is selected, the

target heart rate setting

for the program will flash

in the display. If desired,

press the Heart Rate in-

crease and decrease buttons to change the target

heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on

page 24). Note: The same target heart rate set-

ting will be programmed for the entire program.

Press the Start button or the Quick Speed in-

crease button to start the program.

Amoment after the button is pressed, the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and

incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails

and begin walking.

The Interval program is divided into 30 one-minute

segments. One target heart rate setting is pro-

grammed for each segment. (Note: The same tar-

get heart rate setting may be programmed for two

or more consecutive segments.) The Endurance

program is divided into 40 one-minute segments.

The same target heart rate setting is programmed

for all segments. Note: For a shorter workout, sim-

ply stop the program before it ends.

If the

Interval pro-

gram is se-

lected, the

target heart

rate setting

for the first

segment will be shown in the flashing Current

Segment column of the matrix. The target heart

rate settings for the next several segments will be

shown in the columns to the right. When only

three seconds remain in the first segment, both

the Current Segment column and the column to

the right will flash and a series of tones will sound.

In addition, the speed setting and the incline set-

ting will flash in the displays to alert you. When

the first segment ends,

all target heart rate set-

tings will move one column to the left.

The target

heart rate setting for the second segment will then

be shown in the flashing Current Segment col-

umn.

During both heart rate programs, the console will

regularly compare your heart rate to the current

target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too

far below or above the target heart rate setting,

the speed of the walking belt will automatically in-

crease or decrease to bring your heart rate closer

to the target heart rate setting. If the speed of the

walking belt reaches 7.5 mph and your heart rate

is still too far below the target heart rate setting,

the incline of the treadmill will also increase.

If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low

at any time during the program, you can adjust the

setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However,

each time the console compares your heart rate to

the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or in-

cline of the treadmill may automatically change to

bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

If your pulse is not detected during the program,

the letters “PLS” will flash in the display and the

speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automat-

ically decrease.If this occurs, see the instructions

included with the optional chest pulse sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop

button. To restart the program, press the Start but-

ton or the Quick Speed increase button. The walk-

ing belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the

console compares your heart rate to the target

heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the

treadmill may automatically change to bring your

heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

Follow your progress with the display.

See step 5 on page 10.

Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 7 on page 11.

When you are finished exercising, remove the

insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.

Repeat until the walking belt is centered.

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

move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.

Using the allen wrench, turn both rear roller bolts

clockwise, 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 inches 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 properly tightened.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-

ercise program. For more detailed exercise informa-

tion, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the

desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.

The proper intensity level can be found by using your

heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-

mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age

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

the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers

above your age. The three numbers define your “train-

ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended

heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the

recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Fat Burning

To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively

low intensity level for a sustained period of time.

During the first few minutes of exercise, your body

uses easily accessible

carbohydrate calories

for en-

ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body

begin to use stored

fat calories

for energy. If your goal

is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread-

mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in

your training zone.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline

of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle

number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-

tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise

is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for

prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand

on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the

lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,

adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your

heart rate is near the highest number in your training

zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

AWarm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes

of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up in-

creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula-

tion in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase

the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your

training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few

weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your

pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)

Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never

hold your breath.

ACool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min-

utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the

flexibility of your muscles and will help 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, you may com-

plete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key

to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable

part of your everyday life.

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physi-

cian. This is especially important for individu-

als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-

existing health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors, including your movement,

may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings.

The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid

in determining heart rate trends in general.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1.Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from

your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach

down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then

relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and

back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward

you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach

toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.

Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and

groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your

hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back

foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move

your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles ten-

dons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles ten-

dons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one

foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks

as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each

leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull

your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15

counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip

muscles.
