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 HEALTHRIDER dealer or call the tele-
phone 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 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, reducing 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 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 revolutionary 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 16 for
information about the optional chest pulse sensor).
The console also features six interactive cross trainer
programs designed to help you to burn calories and
enhance your cardiovascular system while toning and
strengthening your muscles. The cross trainer pro-
grams automatically control the speed and incline of
the treadmill and prompt you to perform a variety of
strength exercises during your workout. There are two
whole body, two upper body, and two lower body cross
trainer programs to choose among. Note: The strength
exercises require the use of dumbbells and an inflat-
able exercise ball (not included). To purchase dumb-
bells or an exercise ball, call the telephone number
on the front cover of this manual.
To turn on the power, follow the steps beginning on
page 12. To use the manual mode of the console,
see page 12. To use a cross trainer program, see
page 14. To use the information mode, see page 16.
IMPORTANT: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove the plastic. To pre-
vent damage to the walking platform, wear clean
athletic shoes while using the treadmill. The first
time the treadmill is used, observe the alignment of
the walking belt, and center the walking belt if nec-
essary (see page 20).
Note: The console can display speed and distance in
either miles or kilometers. To find out which unit of
measurement is selected or to change the unit of mea-
surement, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
16. For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to
miles.

HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the treadmill has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before turning on the power. If you do not
do this, the console displays or other electrical
components may become damaged.
Plug in the power cord
(see page 10). Next, locate
the reset/off circuit breaker
on the treadmill frame near
the power cord. Make sure
that the circuit breaker is in
the “reset” position.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is dis-
played in a store. If the displays light as soon as
you plug in the power cord and switch the circuit
breaker to the reset position, the demo mode is
turned on. To turn off the demo mode, hold down
the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays
remain lit, see THE INFORMATION MODE on page
16 to turn off the demo mode.
Next, stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Locate the
clip attached to the key (see the drawing on page 11),
and slide the clip securely onto the waistband of your
clothes. Then, insert the key into the console. After a
moment, the displays will light. IMPORTANT: In an
emergency situation, the key can be pulled from
the console, causing the walking belt to slow to a
stop. Test the clip by carefully taking a few steps
backward; if the key is not pulled from the console,
adjust the position of the clip.

5. Follow your progress with the display.
When you
select the
manual
mode, the
display will
show a track
that repre-
sents 1/4 mile (400 meters). As you walk or run, in-
dicators will appear in succession around the track
until the entire track appears. The track will then
disappear and the indicators will again begin to ap-
pear in succession.
The left side of the display
will show the elapsed
time, the distance that
you have walked or run,
and the incline level of the
treadmill. Note: When a
program is selected, the display will show the time
remaining in the program instead of the elapsed
time.
The right side of the dis-
play will show the ap-
proximate number of
calories you have
burned while walking or
running, the speed of the
walking belt, and your pace in minutes per mile.
The right side of the display will also show your
heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor
or the optional chest pulse sensor.
To reset the display, press the Stop button, remove
the key, and then reinsert the key.
6. Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you use the handgrip pulse sensor and
the optional chest pulse sensor at the same
time, the console will not display your heart
rate accurately.
Before using
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the
sheets of clear
plastic from
the metal con-
tacts. In addi-
tion, make
sure that your hands are clean.
To measure your heart rate, stand on the foot
rails and hold the metal contacts on the handrail—

minute segments. One speed setting and one in-
cline setting are programmed for most segments.
Note: The same speed setting and/or incline setting
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
segments. During other segments, the console will
prompt you to perform strength exercises.
During the
program, the
profile will
show your
progress. The
flashing seg-
ment of the
profile represents the current segment of the pro-
gram. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the speed setting for the current segment. At the
end of each segment, a series of tones will sound
and the next segment of the profile will begin to
flash. If a different speed or incline setting is pro-
grammed for the next segment, the speed or incline
setting will flash in the display to alert you.
The program will continue in this way until the last
segment of the profile flashes in the display and
the last segment ends. The walking belt will then
slow to a stop.
If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-
ment is too high or too low, you can manually over-
ride the setting by pressing the Speed or Incline
buttons; however, when the current segment of
the program ends, the treadmill will automati-
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings for
the next segment.
