dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the 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 condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there

is lubricant on top of the walking belt, wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

Assembly requires the included hex keys, your own phillips screwdriver , and your

own rubber mallet .

For help identifying the assembly hardware, see the drawings below. The number in parentheses below each

drawing is the key number of the part, from the PART LIST on pages 30 and 31. The number following the paren-

theses is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been

pre-assembled. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assembly.

THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sili-

cone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deterio-

rate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be earthed. If it should malfunction or break

down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric cur-

rent to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped

with a power cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an

earthing plug. Important: If the power cord is damaged, it must

be replaced with a manufacturer-recommended power cord.

See drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord into the

socket on the treadmill.

See drawing 2. Press the pins on the power cord into the metal clips

in the adapter as shown. Close the adapter cover over the end of the

power cord and tighten the screw in the adapter. Important: Make

sure that the adapter cover is secure and the screw has been

tightened before using the power cord.

See drawing 3. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that is

properly installed and earthed in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not compatible with

GFCI-equipped outlets.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-earthing conductor can result in an in-

creased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as

to whether the product is properly earthed. 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.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The treadmill console offers a selection of features

designed to make your workouts more effective. When

you select the manual mode of the console, you can

change the speed and incline of the treadmill 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 handgrip pulse sen-

sor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 23).

The console also features ten trainer programs. Each

trainer program automatically controls the speed and

incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an ef-

fective workout. In addition, the console offers two

heart rate programs. Each heart rate program adjusts

the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart

rate near a target heart rate during your workout. Note:

You must wear the optional chest pulse sensor to use

the heart rate programs.

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

the telephone number on the front cover of this

manual.

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you

can also go to www.iFIT.com and access iFIT.com

programs directly from our Web site. See

www.iFIT.com for more information.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the

steps beginning on page 13. To use a trainer

program,see page 15. To use a heart rate program,

see page 16. To use an iFIT.com MP3, CD, or video

When you are finished exercising, remove the

key from the console.

See step 8 on page 14.

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM

Heart rate program 1 will automatically adjust the speed

and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within

a preset range during your workout. Heart rate program

2 will keep your heart rate near a target heart rate setting

that you select.

Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.

Put on the optional chest pulse sensor.

See the instructions included with the chest pulse

sensor.

Insert the key into the console.

See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page

13.

Select a heart rate program.

To select a heart rate program, press the Heart

Rate Programs button repeatedly until “P1” or

“P2” appears in the display.

If heart rate

program 1

is selected,

aprofile of

the target

heart rate

settings of

the program

will scroll

across the display.

If heart rate program 2 is selected, agraphic

representing your heartbeat will appear in the dis-

play.

CAUTION: If you have heart prob-

lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and

have been inactive, do not use the heart rate

programs. If you are taking medication regu-

larly, consult your physician to find whether the

medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

Enter a target heart rate setting.

If heart rate program 1

is selected, the maxi-

mum target heart rate

setting of the program

will appear in the display.

Ifdesired, press the in-

crease and decrease buttons beside the Heart

Rate Programs button to change the maximum

target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTEN-

SITY on page 28). Note: If you change the maxi-

mum target heart rate setting, the intensity level of

the entire program will change.

If heart rate program 2 is selected, the target

heart rate setting for the program will be dis-

played. If desired, press the increase and de-

crease buttons beside the Heart Rate Programs

button to change the target heart rate setting (see

EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 28). Note: The

same target heart rate setting will be programmed

for the entire program.

Press the Start button or the Speed increase

button to start the program.

Amoment after you press the button, the treadmill

will automatically adjust to the first speed and in-

cline settings of the program. Hold the handrails

and begin walking.

Heart rate program 1 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.) Heart rate pro-

gram 2 is divided into 100 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 heart rate

program 1 is

selected, the

target heart

rate setting

for the first

segment will

be shown in the flashing Current Segment column

of the display. The target heart rate settings for the

next several segments will be shown in the

columns to the right. When only three seconds re-

main in the first segment, both the Current

Segment column and the column to the right will

flash and a series of tones will sound. When the

first segment ends,

all target heart rate settings

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 column.

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 12 km/h 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

setting.

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.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop

button. The time will begin to flash in the display.

To restart the program, press the Start button or

the Speed increase button. The walking belt will

begin to move at 2 km/h. When the console com-

pares your heart rate to the target heart rate set-

ting, 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.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and

follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a properly earthed outlet (see page 11). If an exten-

sion cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 1 mm2(14-gauge) cord that is no longer than 1.5 m

(5 ft.). Important: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

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

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 pulse sensor is intended only as an exer-

cise 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 tendons,

bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons 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.
