THE PRE-LUBRmCATED WALKmNG BELT
Your treadmHUfeatures a waUkingbeUtcoated with high°
performance Uubdcant, iMPORTANT: Never apply sil-
icone spray or other substances to the walking
bett or the walking platform. Such substances will
deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive
wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
DANGER: improper connection
of the equipment-grounding 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 propedy grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product--if it wiJl
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified eJectrician.
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 appliances
being turned on or off, To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at
the right}. To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your Joca! REEBOK dealer or call the toll-free teJe-
phone number on the front cover of this manuaJ
and order part number 146148, or see your tocaJ
electronics store.
Use onJy a singJe-ouflet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 tisted as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS}. The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 votts or Jess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 jouJes.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 voffs AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-
toring Jight on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
properly functioning surge suppressor coutd resuJt
in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the walking beJt
may change speed, accelerate, or stop unexpect-
edly, 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 ebc°
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 properly installed and grounded in
accordance with aH Jocat 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,

.. Grounding Pin
_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 quaJified 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 help you get the most from your
workouts.
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the
speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed 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 handgnp pulse
sensor.
In addition, the console offers ten preset programs.
Each program automatically controls the speed and in-
dine of the treadmill as it guides you through an effec-
tive workout. You can even create custom workout pro-
grams and store them in memory for future use.
Four heart rate programs are also offered. Each pro-
gram automatically adjusts the speed and incline of the
treadmill to keep your heart rate near target heart rate
settings while you exercise.
Whether you select the manual mode or a program,
you can enjoy the shows of your choice on the per-
sonal television while you get in shape.
To use the manuaJ mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 12. To use a preset program,
see page 14. To create and use a custom program,
see pages 16 and 17. To use a heart rate program,
see page 18. To operate the personaJ television, see
page 20.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of
the console, peel off the plastic. To prevent damage to
the walking platform, wear clean athletic shoes while
using the treadmill. The first time the treadmill is used,
observe the alignment of the walking belt, and center
the walking belt if necessary (see page 24).
