OPERATmON AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PRE-LUBRmCATED WALKmNG BELT
Your treadmHUfeatures a waUkingbeUtcoated with high°
performance Uubricant, 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
of the equJpmentogrounding 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.
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 appli-
ances being turned on or off, To decrease the possi-
bility of your treadmill being damaged, always
use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see
drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge sup-
pressor, see your local REEBOK deaJer or call the
toll-free telephone number on the front cover of
this manuaJ and order part number 146148, or see
your tocaJ electronics store.
Use only a singJe-ouflet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 Jisted as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed vottage rating of 400 volts or Jess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joutes.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and !5 amps. There must be a moni-
toring tight on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
property functioning surge suppressor coutd resutt
in damage to the controt system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the walking belt
may change speed, accelerate, or stop une×pect-
edty, which may resutt in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should maffunc°
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of slec°
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 property installed and grounded in
accordance with aH JocaJ codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCl-equipped outJets.
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,
i-Groundsd Outlet Box
¢-1 _ Surge Suppressor
2_rounded Outlet Box
Adapter Surge Suppressor
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-poJe receptacle outJet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of
features designed to make your workouts more
effective, When the manual mode of the console is
selected, 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 ten 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 four heart rate programs that
control the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep
your heart rate near target heart rate settings during
your workouts, Note: The heart rate 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
heart rate program, see page 17,
Note: If there is a sheet of c_ear plastic on the face
of the console, remove the p_astic. To prevent dam-
age to the walking platform, a_ways wear clean
shoes while using the treadmill. The first time the
treadmill is used, observe the alignment of the
walking be_t, and center the walking be_t if neces-
sary (see page 23}.
