HOW TO USE THE VIBRATION PLATFORM
HOW TO MOVE THE VIBRATION PLATFORM
Before moving the vibration platform, unplug
the power cord and remove the dumbbells from
the weight rest.
Hold the handlebar and place one foot against the
wheel. Tilt the vibration platform until it rolls freely
on the wheel. Carefully move the vibration platform
to the desired location. To reduce the risk of
injury, use extreme caution while moving the
vibration platform. Do not move the vibration
platform over an uneven surface.

HOW TO USE THE ADJUSTABLE-WEIGHT
DUMBBELLS
Each dumbbell handle can be used with two, four,
six, eight, or ten weight plates; each dumbbell ham
die can also be used without weight plates.
To select the desired number of weight plates, first
set a dumbbell on the weight rest as shown. Next,
lift one of the selector pins, slide the selector pin to
one of the adjustment holes, and then release the
selector pin. Rock the selector pin from side to side
to make sure that it is fully inserted into one of the
adjustment holes. Adjust the other selector pin on
the dumbbell in the same way. Always attach the
same number of weight plates to both sides of
each dumbbell handle.
To use the dumbbell, lift it straight upward off the
weight rest, making sure that the unattached weight
plates remain on the weight rest.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD This product is for use on a nominal 12g-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. Atemporary 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.
Your vibration platform, like any other type of sophisti-
cated 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 vibration platform being damaged, always
use a surge suppressor with your vibration plat-
form (see drawing t at the right). To purchase a
surge suppressor, see your local Sears store or
call the telephone number on the back cover of
this manual and order part number 146148, or see
your local electronics store.
Use only asingle-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL t449 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 t20 volts AC and t5 amps. There must be a
monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning properly.
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function 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. 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 vibration platform is
not compatible with GFCl-equipped outlets.

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
electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
f
CONSOLE FEATURES
The console offers a selection of features designed to
make your workouts more effective and enjoyable.
You can change the time and frequency of your vibra-
tion sessions with the touch of a button,
The console also features the new iFIT Interactive
Workout System. The iFIT Interactive Workout System
is compatible with iFIT cards containing workout pro-
grams designed to help you achieve specific fitness
goals. IFIT programs control the time and frequency of
the vibration platform while the voice of a personal
trainer coaches you and motivates you through your
workouts. IFIT cards are available separately. To pur-
chase iFIT cards, go to www.iFIT.com or call t-888-
533-t333. iFIT cards are also available at select
stores.
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the vibration platform has been
exposed to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to
room temperature before turning on the power. If
you do not do this, the console or other electronic
components may become damaged.
Plug the power cord
into the receptacle on
the base of the vibra-
tion platform (see
assembly step 15 on
page 12). Then, plug
the power cord into a
120-volt outlet. Next,
Reset
Position
locate the reset/off circuit breaker on the vibration plat-
form near the power cord. Make sure that the circuit
breaker is in the reset position.
EXERCISE FORM
See the accompanying exercise DVD to learn the cor-
rect form for several exercises that can be performed
on the vibration platform. When standing on the vibra-
tion platform, bend your knees slightly and balance
your weight on the balls of your feet.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect all parts of the vibration platform regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. Outer surfaces of the vibra-
tion platform can be cleaned with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent; do not use solvents to clean
the vibration platform.
Most vibration platform problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom
that applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, call the telephone number listed
on the back cover of this manual.
PROBLEM: The power does not turn on
SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppres-
sor is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 14). Use only a single-outlet surge sup-
pressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14. IMPORTANT: The vibration
platform is not compatible with GFCl-equipped outlets.
b. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the
vibration platform frame near the power cord. If
the switch protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker
has tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for
five minutes and then press the switch back in.
PROBLEM: The power turns off during use c
Tripped Reset
SOLUTION: a. Check the reset/off circuit breaker (see the drawing above). If the circuit breaker has tripped,
wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.
b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for
five minutes, and then plug it back in.
c. If the vibration platform still will not run, please see the back cover of this manual.
