INTRODUCTION
Congratulations and thank you for choosing PaceMaster – your partner in achieving your fitness goals and mastering your well-being.
PaceMaster’s advanced digital technology allows your treadmill to process information instantly, anticipating and adjusting to meet your
needs. Think of it as your own personal trainer.
PaceMaster’s superior components and US manufacture ensure we produce treadmills of the highest quality while also offering excellent
value for your dollar. PaceMaster treadmills have consistently received praise from a wide range of nationally recognized publications.
To get the most from your PaceMaster, please read this owner’s manual carefully before starting to use the treadmill. The manual contains
important information about the assembly, operation and maintenance of the machine.
Please ensure you read and fully understand all safety information. DANGER, CAUTION, or WARNING indicates
important safety warnings throughout the manual. Failure to read and understand these warnings may result in personal injury or damage
to your treadmill.

reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. See example to the right.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment grounding-conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or serviceman 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. This product is rated for more than 15
amperes and is for use on a circuit having a nominal rating of 120 volts. It is factory equipped with a specific electric cord and plug to
permit connection to a proper electric circuit. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adapter should be used with this product. Attempting to bypass it with an adapter or in any way defeating its purpose can
result in a serious shock hazard.
As a safety precaution, unplug the treadmill during electrical storms or if the treadmill will not be in use for periods greater than one week.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Initially, you may want to keep both hands on the side rails until you feel comfortable walking on your PaceMaster. Once you feel
comfortable, try removing your hands to let them swing naturally, as you would when walking outdoors. Always hold on to the side rail or
front handle bar with one hand when operating the buttons of the control panel.
THE FIRST STEP
Stand on the center of the treadmill belt. Attach the garment clip on the end of the magnetic safety key to your clothing at waist level.
Insert the safety key into the recess on the control panel keyboard.
METRIC UNITS
PaceMaster treadmills can be configured to operate in English (lbs, mph, and miles) or Metric units (kg, kph, and kilometers) of measure.
To determine the present configuration of your PaceMaster insert the magnetic key, if “USA” is displayed in the “RESULTS” window it is
configured in English, if “Eur” is displayed in the “RESULTS” window, it is configured in Metric. To change between English and Metric
insert the magnetic key, as soon as the current setting (USA or EUR) is displayed in the Results window, press and hold the SELECT
(PREVIEW) button until the setting changes. Press PAUSE (ENTER) to confirm the selection.
SETTING YOUR WEIGHT AND AGE
Your PaceMaster calculates caloric expenditure based on the formula developed by the American College of Sports Medicine. To ensure
accuracy, your weight is required. Once the magnetic key has been inserted, the default weight of 150 lbs. (68 kg.) is shown in the
INCLINE display and the SET WEIGHT indicator will be blinking. By pressing the INCLINE up or down buttons, you will increase or
decrease the weight value, press PAUSE (ENTER) when done.
WARM UP AND COOL DOWN
By warming up prior to beginning the aerobic phase of your workout, you accomplish 2 goals; you stretch and warm up the muscles of the
back and extremities and create a slight acceleration of the heart rate so that the body can move gradually into the higher heart rate of the
aerobic phase. The aerobic phase should be followed by a minimum 5-minute cool down in which you keep moving at a slower pace. This
allows your heart rate to gradually decline and your body to gently adjust to the end of a workout instead of abruptly stopping. The cool
down phase also allows blood to be pumped from the lower extremities back to the central circulatory system. Simply put, the function of
warming up and cooling down is to ease you from a resting state into an active state and back to a resting state.
The treadmill’s computer, based on your main exercise starting and finishing speeds respectively, automatically calculates warm up and
cool down speeds.
When in the warm up mode, the TIME display window counts down from 5 minutes and the Warm Up indicator light will blink. When in the
Cool Down mode, the TIME display window counts down from 5 minutes and the Cool Down indicator light will blink.
To add warm up and/or cool down to a TIMED workout press the Warm Up / Cool Down button. The indicator light will blink, indicating that
the desired mode has been added to your workout. You will also notice that the workout time increases by 5 minutes for each addition.
To shorten the warm up mode, press the Warm Up / Cool Down button once. Warm up will be ended and you will advance into the main
exercise. To shorten the main exercise, press the Warm Up / Cool Down button and you will automatically begin the cool down phase. To
end the cool down, press STOP and your session will come to a close.
A cool down phase can be added to any workout (even if it wasn’t chosen prior to beginning the workout) by pressing the Warm Up / Cool
Down button.
Now you are ready to choose your workout mode. Whether it is Quick Start, Timed Workout (Manual), or one of the four Variable Intensity
Workouts, the following pages give you step-by-step instructions on how to use each workout.
