OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your incline trainer features a walking belt coated with

high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never

apply silicone spray or other substances to the

walking belt or the walking platform. Such sub-

stances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause

excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

Your incline trainer, like any other type of sophisticated

electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by

sudden voltage changes in your homeʼs 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 incline trainer being damaged, always use a

surge suppressor with your incline trainer (see

drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge sup-

pressor, see your local PROFORM dealer or call the

toll-free 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 monitoring

light on the surge suppressor to indicate whether it

is functioning properly. Failure to use a properly

functioning surge suppressor could result in dam-

age to the control system of the incline trainer. 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

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 incline trainer 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 advanced console offers an impressive array of

features designed to help you get the most from your

exercise. When the manual mode of the console is se-

lected, the speed and incline of the Incline Trainer can

be changed with the touch of a button. As you exer-

cise, the console will provide continuous exercise feed-

back. You can even measure your heart rate using the

handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sen-

sor (see page 27).

The console also offers 5 speed programs and 10 in-

cline programs. Each program automatically controls

the speed and incline of the Incline Trainer as it guides

you though an effective workout. You can even create

your own custom workout programs and store them in

memory for future use.

In addition, the console offers four pulse programs that

automatically adjust the speed and incline of the

Incline Trainer to keep your heart rate near a target

level while you exercise. Note: The pulse programs re-

quire 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 the included audio

cable, you can connect the Incline Trainer to your home

stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and play

special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com

CDs and videocassettes are available separately).

IFIT.com CD and video programs automatically control

the speed and incline of the Incline Trainer as a per-

sonal trainer coaches you through every step of your

workout. High-energy music provides added motivation.

To purchase iFIT.com CDs or videocassettes, call

the toll-free telephone number on the front cover

of this manual.

With the Incline Trainer connected to your computer,

you can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and

access iFIT.com programs directly from the internet.

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 speed program

or an incline program, see page 16. To create and

use a custom program, see pages 18 and 19. To use

a pulse program, see page 20. To use an iFIT.com

CD or video program, see page 24. To use an

iFIT.com program directly from our Web site, see

page 26.

HOW TO USE A SPEED PROGRAM OR AN

INCLINE PROGRAM

The console offers 5 speed programs and 10 incline

programs. All 15 programs automatically control the

speed and the incline of the Incline Trainer as they

guide you through effective workouts. Speed programs

regulate the intensity of your exercise primarily by

varying the speed of the walking belt, although they

also vary the incline; incline programs primarily vary

the incline, although they also vary the speed.

Follow the steps below to use a speed program or an

incline program.

Insert the key into the console.

heart rate setting is programmed for each seg-

ment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may

be programmed for two or more consecutive seg-

ments.

The target heart

rate setting for

the first segment

will be shown in

the flashing

Current Segment

column of the ma-

trix. The target

heart rate settings

for the next seven segments will be shown in the

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. In addition, the

Speed/Pace display and the Incline/Elevation dis-

play will flash. When the first segment ends, all

target heart rate settings will move one column to

the left. The target heart rate setting for the sec-

ond segment will then be shown in the flashing

Current Segment column.

During each segment, the console will compare

your heart rate to the target heart rate. If your

heart rate is too far below or above the target

heart rate, the speed of the walking belt will auto-

matically increase or decrease to bring your heart

rate closer to the target heart rate. If the speed

reaches the maximum speed setting of the pro-

gram (see step 5 on this page) and your heart rate

is still too far below the current target heart rate,

the incline of the Incline Trainer will also increase

to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart

rate.

The program will continue in this way until the tar-

get heart rate 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 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, the speed and/or incline of

the Incline Trainer 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 Fat Calories/

Calories/Pulse display and the speed and incline

of the Incline Trainer may automatically decrease

until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, see the

instructions included with the optional chest pulse

sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop

button. The time will begin to flash in the

Time/Distance display. To restart the program,

press the Start button or the Speed + button. The

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

console compares your heart rate to the target

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

Trainer will automatically change to bring your

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE

The console features an information mode that keeps

track of the total number of miles that the walking belt

has moved and the total number of hours that the

Incline Trainer has been operated. The information

mode also allows you to switch the console from miles

to kilometers. In addition, the information mode allows

you to turn on and turn off the demo mode.

To select the information mode, hold down the Stop

button while inserting the key into the console. When

the information mode is selected, the following informa-

tion will be shown:

The Incline/Elevation display

will show the total number of

miles or kilometers that the

walking belt has moved.

The Time/Distance display

will show the total number of

hours that the Incline Trainer

has been used.

An “E” for English miles or

an “M” for metric kilometers

will appear in the Speed/

Pace display. Press the

Speed + button to change

the unit of measurement.

IMPORTANT: The Fat Calories/Calories/Pulse dis-

play should be blank. If a “d” appears in the display,

the console is in the “demo” mode. This mode is in-

tended to be used only when an Incline Trainer is dis-

played in a store. When the console is in the demo

mode, the power cord can be plugged in, the key can

be removed from the console, and the displays and in-

dicators on the console will automatically light in a pre-

set sequence; the buttons on the console cannot be op-

erated. If a “d” appears in the display when the infor-

mation mode is selected, press the Speed – button

so the display is blank.

To exit the information mode, remove the key.

THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

An optional chest pulse sensor adds even more

features to the console. The chest pulse sensor provides

hands-free operation and enables you to use the con-

soleʼs heart rate programs. To purchase the

chest pulse sensor, call the toll-free telephone

number on the front cover of this manual.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most Incline Trainer problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that ap-

plies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, 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 surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor

is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 11). Use only a single-outlet surge suppres-

sor that meets all of the specifications described on page 11. Important: The Incline Trainer is not

compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

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

c. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the

Incline Trainer frame near the power cord. If the

switch protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker has

tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five min-

utes and then press the switch to the reset position.

PROBLEM: The power turns off during use

SOLUTION: a. Check the reset/off circuit breaker (see the drawing above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait

for five minutes and then press the switch to the reset position.

b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for five

minutes, and then plug it back in.

c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console.

d. If the Incline Trainer still will not run, see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly

SOLUTION: a. Adjust the incline high enough to remove the two

Screws (3) and the two Belly Pan Screws (70) from

the locations shown. Do not remove the Screws

until you have removed the key from the console

and UNPLUGGED THE POWER CORD. Remove the

two Screws (3) and the two Belly Pan Screws (128).

Remove the four Screws (3) from the Hood (37), and

carefully remove the Hood.

Tripped Reset

Locate the Reed Switch (20) and the Magnet (8) on

the left side of the Pulley (7). Turn the Pulley until the

Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. Make sure

that the gap between the Magnet and the Reed

Switch is about 1/8”. If necessary, loosen the Screw

(21), move the Reed Switch slightly, and then retighten

the Screw. Reattach the Hood (37), making sure that

the Screws (3, 70) are inserted into the same holes

from which they were removed. Run the Incline Trainer

for a few minutes to check for a correct speed reading.

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, Incline Trainer per-

formance may decrease and the walking belt may be-

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE

POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both rear

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

When the walking belt is properly tightened, you should

be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches

off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walking

belt centered. Plug in the power cord, insert the key,

and run the Incline Trainer for a few minutes. Repeat

until the walking belt is properly tightened.

c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see the front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on

SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, remove the key and

UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.If the walking belt

has shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to turn

the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if the

walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the left

rear roller bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be

careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the

power cord, insert the key, and run the Incline Trainer

for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking belt is cen-

tered.

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

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 correctly tight-

ened, you should be able to lift each side of the walk-

ing belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. Be

careful to keep the walking belt centered. Plug in the

power cord, insert the key, and carefully walk on the

Incline Trainer for a few minutes. Repeat until the

walking belt is properly tightened.

PROBLEM: The incline of the Incline Trainer does not change correctly or does not change when

iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are used

SOLUTION: a. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons. While the incline is changing, re-

move the key. After a few seconds, reinsert the key. The Incline Trainer will automatically rise to

the maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline

system.

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.

To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the

handgrip pulse sensor.

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

Incline Trainer until your heart rate is near the lowest

number in your training zone.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline

of the Incline Trainer 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 Incline Trainer until

your heart rate is near the highest number in your

training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Each workout should include the following three parts:

A Warm-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.

A Cool-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-ex-

ercise 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 the userʼs move-

ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

readings. The pulse sensor is intended only

as an exercise aid in determining heart rate

trends in general.
