Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the treadmill 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 perfor-
mance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild,
non-abrasive cleaner.
Assembly requires the included allen wrench and your own phillips screwdriver (with
ashaft at least 6” long) and wire cutters .

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 PROFORM dealer or call the toll-free
telephone number on the front cover of this man-
ual 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 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 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 treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to make your workouts more effec-
tive. When the manual mode of the console is se-
lected, 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 hand-
grip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor
(see page 19).
In addition, the console features six personal trainer
programs. Each program automatically controls the
speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you
through an effective workout. You can even create
your own custom programs and store them in memory
for future use.
The console also offers two pulse programs that con-
trol the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your
heart rate near target heart rate settings during your
workouts. Note: The pulse programs require the use of
the optional chest pulse sensor.
To use the manual mode of the console,follow the
steps beginning on page 12. To use a personal
trainer program,see page 14. To create and use a
custom program, see pages 15 and 16. To use a
pulse program,see page 17.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face
of the console, remove the plastic. To prevent dam-
age to the walking platform, always wear clean
shoes while using the treadmill.

the six personal trainer program buttons; “P1,”
“P2,” “P3,” “P4,” “P5,” or “P6” will appear in the pri-
ority display for a few seconds.
Afew seconds after a personal trainer program is
selected, the maximum incline setting of the pro-
gram and the maximum speed setting of the pro-
gram will flash in the display for a few seconds.
The display will also show how long the program
will last. A profile of the speed settings of the pro-
gram will scroll across the matrix.
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to
start the program.
Amoment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One speed setting and one incline setting
are programmed for each segment. Note: The
same speed setting and/or incline setting may be
programmed for two or more consecutive seg-
ments.
The speed setting for
the first segment will
be shown in the flash-
ing Current Segment
column of the matrix.
(The incline settings
are not shown in the
matrix.) The speed
settings for the next several 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. If the speed and/or in-
cline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed
setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the
display to alert you.
When the first segment is completed,
all speed
settings will move one column to the left
.The
speed setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the flashing Current Segment column,
and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the
speed and incline settings for the second seg-
ment. Note: If all seven of the indicators in the
Current Segment column are lit,
the speed settings
may move downward
so that only the highest indi-
cators appear in the matrix.
The program will continue in this way until the
speed setting for the last segment is shown in the
Current Segment column and the last segment

When the first segment ends, all target heart rate
settings will move one column to the left. The tar-
get heart rate setting for the second segment will
then be shown in the flashing Current Segment
column.
During both pulse programs, the console will reg-
ularly compare your heart rate to the target heart
rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or
above the target heart rate setting for the current
segment, the speed of the walking belt will auto-
matically increase or decrease to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
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,
when the console compares your heart rate to the
target heart rate setting, the speed 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 of the treadmill may automatically
decrease. If this occurs, see the instructions in-
cluded with the optional chest pulse sensor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. To restart the program, press the Start but-
ton or the Speed + button. The walking belt will
begin to move at 1 mph. 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 matrix and the
display.
