1. Position the treadmill on a level surface, with at least 8 feet of clearance behind the
treadmill. Do not place the treadmill on thick carpet, near water or outdoors. Do not
operate where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.
.Plug the power cord directly into a grounded circuit carrying 12 or more amps. No other
appliance should be on the same circuit. (See the OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT section
of this manual for proper grounding instructions.) Keep the power cord away from heated
surfaces. If an extension cord is required, use only a14-gauge, general-purpose cord of
approximately five feet in length with a three-wire conductor.
3. Never move the walking belt while the power is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if
the power cord or plug are damaged, or if the treadmill is not working properly. (Refer to
the BEFORE YOU BEGIN section of this manual if the treadmill is not working property.)
4. The roller guards must be 1/8 inch from the rear roller. Turn the power off and adjust the
roller guards, if necessary.
.Wear appropriate exercise attire when using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothing that
could become caught in the treadmill. Always wear running or aerobic shoes. Never use
the treadmill with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals. Athletic support clothes
are recommended for both men and women.
6. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrail when exercising on the treadmill.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to 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.
DANG ER: improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician Orserviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the
product isproperly 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 for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Drawing 1. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in Drawing 2 may
be used to connect this plug 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, tug, 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 electrician to determine if the outlet
box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

SILICONE APPLICATION
To maintain the low-friction quality of the walking belt and
reduce treadmill wear, a non-oil, non-petroleum base sili-
cone lubricant should be applied generously to the walking
platform. (Silicone lubricant is available at most hardware
and automotive stores.) It is very important to apply
silicone lubricant before initial use of the treadmill.
Lubricant should also be applied after every 10 hours of
use or whenever a decrease in performance is noticed.
Unplug the power cord, lift each side of the walking belt
and apply the lubricant generously to the area indicated.

ELECTRONIC MONITOR OPERATION
8 See the Electronic Monitor Operation Guide accompanying this manual.
MANUAL SPEED MODE
When the power is turned on, the console will be in the manual mode and the walking belt will be
stationary. The speed of the walking belt can be controlledwith the plus (+) and minus (-) keys in the
SPEED ADJUST display. Each time the plus key is pressed, a tone will sound and the speed of the
walking belt will increase. Every fourth time the key is pressed, an additional bar in the display wi!l
light. The minus key functions in the same manner to decrease the speed. (The keys can be held
down to change the speed quickly.) CAUTION: It will take a few seconds for the walking belt to reach
the selected speed. Adjust the speed gradually until you are familiar with the treadmill.
Press the plus key until the walking belt begins to move at slow speed. Step carefully onto the walking
belt and begin exercising. Adjust the speed as desired by pressing the plus or minus keys.
To stop the walking belt, hold down the minus key. The belt can be stopped quickly, if desired, by
pressing the STOP key. It will take a few seconds for the belt to stop fully.
PROGRAMMABLE SPEED MODE
When the console is in the programmable mode, the speed of the walking belt will be controlled
automatically by workout programs you create. Up to four workout programs can be stored in memory,
and recalled for future workouts.
To create a program, first press one of the four USER keys. Next, press the plus (+) or minus (-) keys
in the MAX SPEED SET display to set the maximum speed you want the walking belt to move during
the program. Each time one of the keys is pressed, the maximum speed setting will change by 0.5
miles per hour. The maximum speed setting must be at least 4.0 miles per hour. (The maximum
speed setting cannot be set quickly by holding down the keys.)
Ten speed settings should now be programmed on the PROGRAM SEGMENTS display. The display
is divided into ten vertical segments, each with a plus (+) and minus (-) key and eight bars. One speed
setting can be programmed on each segment. The bars in each segment show the speed setting of
that segment. If one bar is lighted, the segment is PrOgrammed for the minimum speed. If all eight
bars are lighted, the segment is programmed for the maximum speed. (If a program has not previously
been created, four bars will be lighted in each segment.) To program a speed setting on the first
segment (at far left), press the plus or minus keys in that segment. Each time the plus key is pressed,
a tone will sound and the speed setting will increase. Every fourth time the plus key is pressed, an
additional bar in the segment will light. The minus key functions in the same manner to decrease the
speed setting. (The keys can be held down to program a speed setting quickly.) Program speed
setting s on the remaining nine segments in the same manner. You may wish to program a low setting
on the first segment for awarm-up, a combination of higher settings on the middle segments, and a low
setting on the final segment for a cool-down. An endless variety of "profiles" can be created.
Next, press the plus (+) or minus (-) keys in the SEGMENT TIMER display to set the length of time you
want each segment to last. (All segments will last for the same length of time.) Each segment can be
set to last for a minimum of 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 9 minutes, 50 seconds. Each time one of
the keys is pressed, the time displayed wit! change by 10 seconds. (The keys can be held down to set
the time quickly.)
To start the program, press the PROGRAM START key. The lighted bars in the first segment will begin
to flash, and after a few seconds the walking belt wilt begin to move at the speed setting of the first
segment. Step onto the walking belt and begin exercising. The SEGMENT TIMER display will show
the time remaining in the first segment. When no time remains, the lighted bars in the second segment
will begin to flash, the speed of the walking belt will change to the setting of the second segment, and
the SEGMENT TIMER display will show the time remaining in the second segment.
Afteralltensegmentshavebeencompleted,thewalkingbeltwitlslowto astop and the program will
end. Note: If you wish to stop the walking belt before the program has ended, press the STOP key.
The console will then be in the same state as if the program had ended,
IMPORTANT: If you want to change any program settings after the program has been started, press
the STOP key, and then make the desired changes. The program can be restarted by pressing the
PROGRAM START key. Changing settings while the program is running could cause the speed of the
walking belt to increase suddenly.
After the program has ended, the program can be restarted, a different program can be selected by
pressing one of the other USER keys or the console can be switched to the manual mode by pressing
the MANUAL key. When the console is switched to the manual mode, or the power is turned off, the
current settings of the ten segments will be stored in memory. Programs will be stored as long as the
power cord remains plugged in. When the power cord is unplugged, programs will be erased,
TURNING THE POWER OFF
To turn the power off, remove the safety key from the console. Store the safety key in a secure loca-
tion to prevent small children from operating the treadmill. NOTE: After removing the safety key from
the console, wait for ten seconds for the microprocessor to power down before re:inserting the key.
