ASSEMBLY
There are several areas during the assembly process that special attention must be paid. It is very important to follow the assembly
instructions correctly and to make sure all parts are firmly tightened. If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the
treadmill could have parts that are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. To prevent damage to the
treadmill, the assembly instructions must be reviewed and corrective actions should be taken.
Before proceeding, find your treadmill’s serial number located on a white barcode sticker
near the on/off power switch and power cord and enter it in the space provided below.

THR ZONE 1 AND 2: Automatically adjusts incline to
maintain your Target Heart Rate. Perfect for simulating the
intensity of your favorite sport or everyday activity.
Time-based goal.
1) Select THR ZONE 1 or 2 using program keys, then press
enter.
2) Choose a target heart rate using the +/- KEYS and press
enter. NOTE: Use the chart to the right to determine your
target heart rate.
3) Set time using the +/- keys and press enter.
4) Press Start to begin your program.
• At this time, your program has been successfully saved
into memory, and can be used for future workouts.
• To reset your program information and delete it from
memory, press and hold the enter key for 5 seconds (after
you have selected the THR ZONE 1 or 2 program).
After the warm-up period, the INCLINE level will increase
gradually to get you to the entered TARGET HEART RATE
ZONE. Once you are at the TARGET HEART RATE ZONE
(plus or minus 5 beats per minute) the INCLINE level will
remain until you rise above or drop below your TARGET
HEART RATE ZONE at which time the incline would adjust
accordingly. It there is no heart rate detected, the incline will
not change. If your heart rate is 25 beats over your target
zone the program will shut down. There is a cool down at the
end of the program. At this time, the program will gradually
decrease the incline level to give you a smooth cool down.

PROGRAM INFORMATION
60% OF MAX HEART RATE: Used for beginners and longer
workouts. Lower intensity and longer duration helps burn fat
more efficiently.
65% OF MAX HEART RATE: Used for beginner to
intermediate users and mid to long range workouts. Lower
intensity and longer duration helps burn fat more efficiently.
70% OF MAX HEART RATE: Used for intermediate users
and mid range cardio workouts. While this range burns fat
it really challenges the cardiovascular system and helps
strengthen the heart.
75% OF MAX HEART RATE: Used for advanced users and
short to mid range cardio workouts. Burns fat, tones
muscles and challenges the heart.
80% OF MAX HEART RATE: Used for
advanced users and short workouts.
Burns fat, strengthens and tones
muscles, and challenges the
entire cardiovascular
system.
USER FAVORITE KEYS
