IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the  
following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.  
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure  
that all users of this treadmill are adequately  
informed of all warnings and precautions.  
trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys-  
tem is damaged, the walking belt may change  
speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,  
which may result in a fall and serious injury.  
2. Use the treadmill only as described.  
13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-  
sor away from heated surfaces.  
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at  
least 8 ft. (2 m) of clearance behind it and 2 ft.  
(0.5 m) on each side. Do not place the treadmill  
on any surface that blocks air openings. To  
protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a  
mat under the treadmill.  
14. Never move the walking belt while the power  
is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if  
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the  
treadmill is not working properly. (See  
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 29 if the tread-  
mill is not working properly.)  
4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois-  
ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a  
garage or covered patio, or near water.  
15. Read, understand, and test the emergency  
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see  
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT).  
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol  
products are used or where oxygen is being  
administered.  
16. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-  
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the  
handrails while using the treadmill.  
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets  
away from the treadmill at all times.  
17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid  
sudden jumps in speed.  
7. The treadmill should not be used by persons  
weighing more than 325 pounds (147 kg).  
8. Never allow more than one person on the  
treadmill at a time.  
18. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors, including the user's move-  
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate  
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only  
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate  
trends in general.  
9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when  
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes  
that could become caught in the treadmill.  
Athletic support clothes are recommended for  
both men and women. Always wear athletic  
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,  
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
19. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it  
is running. Always remove the key, unplug the  
power cord, and switch the reset/off circuit  
breaker to the “off” position when the tread-  
mill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5  
for the location of the reset/off circuit breaker.)  
10. When connecting the power cord (see page 10),  
plug the power cord into a surge suppressor  
(not included) and plug the surge suppressor  
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15  
or more amps. No other appliance should be on  
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.  
20. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the  
treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See  
ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO FOLD  
AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 27.) You  
must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to  
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.  
11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that  
meets all of the specifications described on  
page 10.  
21. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by  
placing objects under the treadmill.  
12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge  
suppressor could result in damage to the con-

sure that the frame is held securely by the pin  
on the latch knob.  
player when you are not using them.  
26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the  
treadmill regularly.  
23. When using iFIT programs, an electronic  
“chirping” sound will alert you when the  
speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about  
to change. Always listen for the “chirp” and  
be prepared for speed and/or incline changes.  
In some instances, the speed and/or incline  
may change before the personal trainer de-  
scribes the change.  
27. Never insert or drop any object into any  
opening.  
28.  
DANGER:  
Always unplug the power  
cord immediately after use, before cleaning  
the treadmill, and before performing the main-  
tenance and adjustment procedures de-  
scribed in this manual. Never remove the  
motor hood unless instructed to do so by an  
authorized service representative. Servicing  
other than the procedures in this manual  
should be performed by an authorized service  
representative only.  
24. When using iFIT programs, you can manually  
override the speed and incline settings by  
pressing the speed and incline buttons.  
However, when the next “chirp” is heard, the  
speed and/or incline will change to the next  
settings of the program.  
29. The treadmill is intended for in-home use  
only. Do not use the treadmill in any commer-  
cial, rental, or institutional setting.  
25. Always remove iFIT CDs and videos from your  
CD player or VCR and disconnect your MP3

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 treadmill is not compatible with  
GFCI-equipped outlets.  
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-  
performance lubricant. 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.  
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.  
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 properly grounded. Do not modify  
the plug provided with the product—if it will  
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet  
The temporary adapter should be used only until a  
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be 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 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).  
Grounding Pin  
Grounded Outlet  
Grounding Plug

Grounded Outlet Box  
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is  
UL 1449 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  
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-  
toring light on the surge suppressor to indicate  
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a  
properly functioning surge suppressor could result  
in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If  
the control system is damaged, the walking belt  
may change speed, accelerate, or stop unexpect-  
edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.  
Adapter  
Surge Suppressor  
Lug  
Metal Screw  
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 elec-  
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is  
grounded before using an adapter.  
This product 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. This product is equipped with a cord having

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of  
features designed to make your workouts more effec-  
tive and enjoyable. When the manual mode of the con-  
sole is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill  
can be changed with the touch of a button. As you ex-  
ercise, the console will display continuous exercise  
feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using  
the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse  
sensor (see page 26).  
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you  
grams directly from our Web site. See www.iFIT.com  
for more information.  
In addition, the console features eight preset pro-  
grams—two Walk programs, two Jog programs, and  
four Run programs. Each program automatically con-  
trols the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides  
you through an effective workout. You can even create  
Custom programs and save them for future use. The  
console also offers two Heart Rate programs that con-  
trol the speed and incline of the treadmill to help you  
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings.  
Note: The Heart Rate programs require the use of the  
optional chest pulse sensor.  
To turn on the power, follow the steps on page 12. To  
use the main menu of the console, see page 12. To  
use the manual mode, see page 13. To use a preset  
program, see page 16. To create and use a Custom  
program, see pages 17 and 18. To use a Heart Rate  
program, see page 19. To use an iFIT MP3, CD, or  
video program, see page 23. To use an iFIT program  
directly from our Web site, see page 25.  
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 30).  
The console also features iFIT interactive technology.  
Having iFIT technology is like having a personal trainer  
in your home. Using a stereo audio cable, you can con-  
nect the treadmill to your portable stereo, home stereo,  
computer, or VCR and play special iFIT MP3, CD, and  
video programs (iFIT MP3 programs, CDs, and video-

progress with the display and the intensity  
level bar.  
Note: Regardless of which display mode you se-  
lect, the speed or incline setting will appear in the  
display for a few seconds each time you change  
the setting. In addition, your heart rate will appear  
in the display for up to 40 seconds each time you  
use the handgrip pulse sensor or put on the op-  
tional chest pulse sensor. (If you select the display  
mode shown below, your heart rate will be shown  
in place of the approximate number of grams of  
carbs you have burned.)  
As you walk or run on the treadmill, the display  
can show the following workout information:  
The elapsed time.  
The distance that you have walked or run.  
The speed of the walking belt.  
The incline level of the treadmill.  
The approximate number of calories you have  
burned.  
The approximate number of grams of carbs  
you have burned.  
Your walking or running pace, in minutes per  
mile or minutes per kilometer.  
As you exercise, the intensity level bar will indicate  
the approximate intensity level of your exercise.  
For example, if half of the indicators in the bar are  
lit, the bar shows that your intensity level is ideal  
for aerobic exercise.  
Your heart rate. Note: Your heart rate can be  
displayed only while you use the handgrip  
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse  
sensor.  
In addition, the display can show a “workout  
history”—a graph that represents the speed  
settings that you select during your workout. At  
the beginning of each minute of your workout,  
an additional column will appear in the graph;  
as you increase or decrease the speed setting,  
the height of the column will increase or de-  
crease.

the front of the treadmill. To decrease the firmness,  
slide the cushion adjusters toward the back of the  
treadmill. Note: It may be helpful to lift on the walk-  
ing platform as you slide the adjusters. Make sure  
that both adjusters are set at the same firmness  
level. The faster you run on the treadmill, or the  
more you weigh, the firmer the walking platform  
should be.  
To exit the information mode, remove the key from the  
console.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread-  
mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in  
your training zone.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this  
or any exercise program, consult your physi-  
cian. This is especially important for individu-  
als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-  
existing health problems.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline  
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle  
number in your training zone.  
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors, including your movement,  
may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings.  
The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid  
in determining heart rate trends in general.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise  
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for  
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand  
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the  
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,  
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your  
heart rate is near the highest number in your training  
zone.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-  
ercise program. For more detailed exercise informa-  
tion, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes  
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up in-  
creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula-  
tion in preparation for exercise.  
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase  
the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your  
training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few  
weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your  
pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)  
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never  
hold your breath.  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to  
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers  
above your age. The three numbers define your “train-  
ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended  
heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the  
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min-  
utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the  
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex-  
ercise problems.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
Fat Burning  
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three  
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-  
tween workouts. After a few months, you may com-  
plete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key  
to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable  
part of your everyday life.  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively  
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-  
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body  
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal
