OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.
Important: Never apply silicone spray or other sub-
stances to the walking belt or the walking platform.
They will eteriorate the walking belt an cause ex-
cessive 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 re-
sult from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off.
To ecrease the possi-
bility of your trea mill
being amage , al-
ways use a surge sup-
pressor (not inclu e )
with your trea mill.
Surge suppressors are
sold at most hardware
stores and department
stores. Use only a CUL-
listed surge suppressor,
rated at 15 amps, with a
1 mm2(14-gauge) cord
of 1.5 m (5 ft.) or less in
length.
This pro uct must be
groun e . If it should
malfunction or break
down, grounding pro-
vides a path of least re-
sistance for electric cur-
rent 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 cor into a surge
suppressor, an plug the surge suppressor into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installe an
groun e in accor ance with all local co es an
or inances.
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 re-
ceptacle 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 groun e . Contact a qualifie elec-
trician to etermine if the outlet box cover is
groun e before using an a apter.
DANGER:Improper connection
of the equipment-groun ing con uctor can
result in an increase risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualifie electrician or service-
man if you are in oubt as to whether the
pro uct is properly groun e . Do not mo ify
the plug provi e with the pro uct—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet in-
stalle by a qualifie electrician.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an impressive array of
features to help you get the most from your exercise.
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the
speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with
a touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will
display continuous exercise feedback. You can even
measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip
pulse sensor. Note: See page 20 for information about
an optional chest pulse sensor.
Four certified personal trainer programs are also
offered. Each program automatically controls the
speed and incline of the treadmill to give you an effec-
tive workout. Two heart rate programs are also fea-
tured. Each program controls the speed and incline of
the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a target level
during your workouts.
The console also features new iFIT.com interactive
technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal trainer right in your home. Using the included
audio cable, you can connect the treadmill to your
home stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play
special iFIT.com CD programs (available separately).
IFIT.com CD programs automatically control the speed
and incline of the treadmill as a personal trainer guides
you through every step of your workout. High-energy
music provides added motivation. Each CD features
two programs designed by certified personal trainers.
In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR
and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (videocas-
settes are available separately). Video programs offer
the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add
the excitement of working out with a class and an
instructor—the hottest new trend at health clubs.
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you
can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and ac-
cess basic programs, audio programs, and video pro-
grams directly from the internet. Additional options are
soon to be available. See www.iFIT.com for details.
For more information, please call our Customer
Service Department at 1-888- 36-4266.

HOW TO USE HEART RATE PROGRAMS
Follow the steps below to use the heart rate programs.
Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sen-
sor (see page 20) to use the heart rate programs.
Put on the chest pulse sensor.
Refer to the instructions included with the optional
chest pulse sensor.

To select one of
the heart rate
programs, press
the Program button repeatedly until one of the two
heart rate program indicators lights.
The two profiles on the left side of the console
show how the target heart rate will change during
the programs. The numbers above the profiles
represent percentages of your estimated maxi-
mum heart rate. (Your estimated maximum heart
rate is determined by subtracting your age from
220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your
estimated maximum heart rate is 1 0 beats per
minute [220 – 30 = 1 0]. If you are 30 years old, a
target heart rate setting of 50% is equal to 5
beats per minute [50% of 1 0 is 5].)

CAUTION:If you have heart prob-
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age an
have been inactive, o not use the heart rate
programs. If you are taking me ication regu-
larly, consult your physician to fin whether the
me ication will affect your exercise heart rate.

During heart rate pro-
grams, the program
display will show a
graphic that represents
your heart rate. Each
time a heartbeat is de-
tected, an additional
peak will appear.
Enter your age.
When a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the let-
ters AGE and the current
age setting will begin to
flash in the Calories/ Fat
Calories/Heart Rate dis-
play. You must enter your age to use a heart rate
program. If you have already entered your age, go
to step 5. If you have not entered your age, press
the Incline (Age Set) buttons until your age is
shown. Your age will then be saved in memory.
Press the Start button or the Spee
ss button to
start the program.
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and
incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails
and begin walking.
Each heart rate program is divided into one-minute
segments. The Time/Incline/Segment Time display
will show both the time remaining in the program
and the time remaining in the current segment of
the program. One target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for each segment. (The same target
heart rate setting may be programmed for consecu-
tive segments.)
When only three seconds remain in the first one-
minute segment of the program, a series of tones
will sound and the Time/Incline/Segment Time
display and the Speed/Min-Mile display will flash.
The speed and/or incline of the treadmill will then
change, if needed, to bring your heart rate closer to
the target heart rate setting for the next segment.
The program will continue until no time remains in
the program. 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 adjust the set-
ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if
you decrease the speed, the incline will automati-
cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in-
cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the
speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline,
the speed will increase.The treadmill will always
attempt to keep your heart rate near the target
heart rate setting for the current segment. Note:
When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the
speed cannot be increased any further. When the
incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-
not be decreased any further.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters PLS will flash in the Calories/Fat
Calories/Heart Rate display and the speed and in-
cline of the treadmill may automatically decrease
until your pulse is detected. If this occurs, refer to
the instructions included with the chest pulse sen-
sor.
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop
button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped
temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate
program again, reselect the program and start it at
the beginning.
