device. Various factors, including the user's
movement, may affect the accuracy of heart
rate readings. The heart rate monitor is 25.
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
21. Never leave the treadmill unattended while
it is running. Always remove the key, press
the power switch into the off position (see
the drawing on page 7 for the location of the
power switch), and unplug the power cord

THE CHEST HEART RATE MONITOR
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
The heart rate
monitor consists of
a chest strap and a
sensor. Insert the
tab on one end of
the chest strap into
the hole in one end
of the sensor as
shown. Then, press
the end of the sen-
sor under the buckle
on the chest strap.
The tab should be
flush with the front of
the sensor.
The heart rate moni-
tor must be worn
under your clothes,
tight against your
skin. Wrap the heart
rate monitor around
your chest in the
location shown.
Make sure that
the logo is right-
side-up. Then, attach the other end of the chest strap
to the sensor. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if
necessary.
Sensor Buckle
Pull the sensor away from your body a few inches and
locate the two electrode areas, which are covered by
shallow ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or
contact lens solution, wet the electrode areas. Then,
return the sensor to a position against your chest.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Thoroughly dry the sensor with a soft towel after
each use. Moisture may keep the sensor activated,
shortening the life of the battery.
• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do
not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or
other container that may trap moisture.
Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sun-
light for extended periods of time; do not expose it to
temperatures above 122 ° F (50° C) or below 14° F
(-10° C).
Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor when
using or storing the heart rate monitor.
To clean the sensor, use a damp cloth and a small
amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the sensor with a
damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft towel.
Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the sensor. Hand wash and air dry the chest strap.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try
the steps below.
Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate moni-
tor as described at the left. If the heart rate monitor
does not function when positioned as described,
move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
• If heart rate readings are not displayed until you
begin perspiring, rewet the electrode areas.
• For the console to display heart rate readings, you
must be within arm's length of the console.
• Ifthere is a battery cover on the back of the sensor,
replace the battery with a new battery of the same
type.
The heart rate monitor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical condi-
tions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
The operation of the heart rate monitor can be
affected by magnetic interference from high power
lines or other sources. If you suspect that magnetic
interference is causing a problem, try relocating the
fitness equipment.
18

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
HOW TO CONNECT THE POWER CORD
Use aSurge Suppressor
Your treadmill, like other electronic equipment, can be
damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home's
power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interfer-
ence can result from weather conditions or from other
appliances being turned on or off. To decrease the
risk of damaging the treadmill, always use a surge
suppressor with the treadmill. To purchase asurge
suppressor, see precaution 13 on page 3.
Use only a surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a
transient voltage surge suppressor (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 also be electri-
cally rated for 120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must
be a monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
properly functioning surge suppressor could result
in damage to the control system of the treadmill
and serious injury to users.
Plug in the Power Cord
The treadmill 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. The treadmill power cord has a plug with a
grounding pin (see drawing 1 on this page).
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. The outlet must be on a
nominal 120=volt circuit capable of carrying 15 or
more amps. To avoid overloading the circuit, do
not plug other electrical devices, except for low=
power devices such as cell phone chargers, into
the surge suppressor or into an outlet on the same
circuit. IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compat=
ible with GFCl-equipped outlets and may not be
compatible with AFCl=equipped outlets.

The lug or wire extending from the adapter must

ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2=pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine whether the outlet box
cover is grounded. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can
be 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 and enjoyable. When you use the manual mode,
you can change the speed and incline of the treadmill
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console
will display instant exercise feedback. You can even
measure your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate
monitor or the chest heart rate monitor.
In addition, the console features thirty-six onboard
workouts--nine calorie workouts, nine timed workouts,
nine performance workouts, and nine distance work-
outs. Each workout automatically controls the speed
and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an
effective exercise session.
The console also features an iFit mode that enables
the treadmill to communicate with your wireless
network. With the iFit mode, you can download per-
sonalized workouts, create your own workouts, track
your workout results, race against other iFit users, and
access many other features.
You can even listen to your favorite workout music or
audio books with the console's stereo sound system
while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see page 21. To use the
manual mode, see page 21. To use the stereo
sound system, see page 23. To use an onboard
workout, see page 24. To use a set=a=goal work-
out, see page 25. To use an iFit workout, see
page 26. To change console settings, see page
27. To use the iPad holder, see page 29.
Note: The console can display speed and distance
in either miles or kilometers. To find which unit of
measurement is selected, see HOW TO CHANGE
CONSOLE SETTINGS on page 27. For simplicity,
all instructions in this manual refer to miles.
IMPORTANT: If there are sheets of plastic on the
console, remove the plastic. To prevent damage
to the walking platform, wear clean athletic shoes
while using the treadmill. The first time you use
the treadmill, observe the alignment of the walking
belt, and center the walking belt if necessary (see
page 33).
