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.

12. Keep the power cord and the surge protector

away from heated surfaces.

13. 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

Before You Begin on page 5 if the treadmill

is not working properly.)

2. Use the treadmill only as described in this

userÕs manual.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with

eight feet of clearance behind it. 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 start the treadmill while you are

standing on the walking belt.

4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from

moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill

in a garage or covered patio, or near water.

15. Always hold the handrails while running on

the treadmill. When walking, hold the

handrails or use the included hand weights.

5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol

products are used or where oxygen is being

administered.

16. Do not perform exercises with the hand

weights at speeds higher than a walk. Using

weights and not holding the handrails may

compromise your ability to maintain your

balance. Exercises using weights should be

attempted only by experienced users.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should not be used by persons

weighing more than 250 pounds. Never allow

more than one person on the treadmill at a

time.

17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid

sudden jumps in speed.

18. The heart rate monitor is not a medical

device. Various factors may affect the accu-

racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate

monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in

determining heart rate trends in general.

8. Wear appropriate clothing when using the

treadmill. Do not wear loose clothing that

could become caught in the treadmill. Athletic

support clothes are recommended for both

men and women.

29. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug

the power cord and move the on/off switch to

the off position when the treadmill is not in

use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the loca-

tion of the on/off switch.)

9. Always wear athletic shoes when using the

treadmill. Never use the treadmill with bare

feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

10. When connecting the power cord (see How to

Plug in the Power Cord on page 10), plug the

power cord into a surge protector (not

included) and plug the surge protector into a

grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or

more amps. No other appliance should be on

the same circuit.

20. During the last ten seconds of any program

except the manual mode, the incline of the

treadmill will automatically decrease to 1.0%.

Keep your feet and objects from beneath the

treadmill.

11. Use only a UL-listed surge protector, rated at

15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or

less in length. Do not use an extension cord.

How to Use the CardioTrack^ªHeart Rate Monitor

3. Pull the transmitter away from your body a few

inches and locate the two electrode areas on the

inner side. The electrode areas are the two long,

grooved rectangles. Using saline solution such as

saliva or contact lens solution, wet both electrode

areas. Return the transmitter to a position against

your chest.

IMPORTANT: If a user has an implanted

medical device such as a pacemaker, the

user must check with his or her physician

prior to using the heart rate monitor.

The unique CardioTrack heart rate monitor is specially

designed for accuracy, comfort, and durability. To get

the best performance from the heart rate monitor,

please read the instructions below.

HEART RATE MONITOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING

The instructions on pages 11 to 17 of this userÕs

manual explain how the heart rate monitor is used

with the console. If the letters ÒPLSÓ appear in the

PULSE display, or if the displayed heart rate is

excessively high or low when the heart rate moni-

tor is used, try the trouble-shooting steps below.

HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

The heart rate monitor consists of two components:

the chest strap and the transmitter. Follow the steps

below to put on the heart rate monitor.

1. Make sure that the heart rate monitor is under your

clothing, against your skin, and as high under the

pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable.

Note: If the heart rate monitor does not function

when positioned as described, try moving it slightly

lower or higher on your chest.

Treadmill Operation

THE PERFORMANT LUBE^TMWALKING BELT

This product is equipped with a cord having an equip-

ment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug

the power cord into a surge protector, and plug the

surge protector into an appropriate outlet that is

properly installed and grounded in accordance

with all local codes and ordinances.

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with

PERFORMANT LUBE^TM, a high-performance lubricant.

IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other

substances to the walking belt or the walking

platform. They 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

illustrated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter

that looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may

be used to connect the surge protector 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

representative if you are in doubt as to

The temporary adapter should be used only until a

properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed

by a qualified electrician.

whether the product is properly grounded. Do

not modify the plug provided with the prod-

uctÑif it will not fit the outlet, have a proper

outlet 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 grounded. Contact a qualified

electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is

grounded before using an adapter.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated

electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by

sudden voltage changes in your homeÕs 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

mined settings, and five INCLINE programs

automatically control the incline of the treadmill as they

guide you through effective workouts. The console also

features two CUSTOM programs that allow you to create

your own programs and store them in the consoleÕs

memory for future use.

¥ Always wear the clip (see the drawing

above) while operating the treadmill. If the

key is pulled from the console, the walking

belt will stop.

¥ The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments.

¥ The heart rate monitor is not a medical

device. Various factors may affect the accu-

racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate

monitor is intended only as an exercise aid

in determining heart rate trends in general.

Maintenance and Trouble-shooting

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and

follow the steps listed.

If further assistance is needed, please contact our Customer Service Department.

1. SYMPTOM: THE POWER DOES NOT TURN ON

a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge protector, and that the surge protector is plugged into

a properly grounded outlet. (See How to Plug in the Power Cord on page 10.) Use only a UL-listed surge

protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less in length. If using a surge protector with

a power switch, make sure that the power switch is in the on position.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the console. (See step

2 on page 12.)

c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill near the

power cord. If the switch protrudes as shown, the circuit

breaker has tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five

minutes and then press the switch back in.

Tripped

Determine your target heart rate.

FACTORS IN A SENSIBLE DIET

Your target heart rate (THR), is the rate at which

you would like your heart to work during aerobic

exercise. It is expressed as a percentage of your

number of times that your heart can pump during

one minute. To determine your approximate MHR,

subtract your age (in years) from 220. This is only

an estimation of your MHRÑonly clinical stress

foods: fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

¥ Eat at least five servings of fruits and

vegetables each day.

¥ Cut back on red meat consumption; eat lean

meat, white meat, and fish.

¥ Choose healthy snacks; bring healthy foods

with you to work or in the car.

Once you have determined your MHR, you can

establish your target heart rate zone. Beginning

exercisers may wish to start at 60 to 70 percent of

their MHR. This level is called the Health level.

Exercise at 70 to 85 percent of your MHR for the

optimal training, aerobic, or cardiovascular levelÑ

the Fitness level. Advanced exercisers, or those

wishing to do sports, athletic conditioning, or inter-

val training workouts should exercise at 80 to 85

percent of the MHR for short periods of time. The

chart below shows Target Heart Rate Zones for

Health, Fitness, and Advanced exercisers.

¥ Eat regular meals or mini-meals. Control your

portion sizeÑdon't binge or overeat. Eat

slowly.

¥ Reduce fast food and pre-packaged meals.

¥ Pay attention to fat content and calories.

¥ Limit alcoholic beverages and caffeine.

¥ Drink at least eight to ten glasses of water a

day.

Be sure to check your heart rate at least twice

during an aerobic conditioning session. First, check

your heart rate five minutes into your workout to be

sure that you are at the proper intensity. Then,

check it again near the end of your workout to

verify that you have maintained your target heart

rate for the recommended period of time.

EXERCISE STEPS

The following 9 steps for designing your exercise

program were developed by exercise physiologists at

NordicTrack. The actual exercise you perform is only

a part of a safe and effective training program. There

are many other aspects to developing a life-long

commitment to physical fitness.

3. Hamstring StretchÑSit with one leg extended.

Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and

rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg.

Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for

15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for

both legs. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back, and

groin.

WEIGHT LOSS TIPS

At least four, 30-minute workouts per week,

along with a reduced-calorie diet, are

recommended if you are trying to lose weight.

However, be sure to stay within your target heart

rate zone and exercise a maximum of 5 days per

week for 60 minutes per workout.

4. Quadriceps StretchÑWith one hand against a

wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot

with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to

your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 to 30

seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg.

Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

Good posture is the key to safe, comfortable

workouts. Keep your chin up and your head

facing forward. Align your head and shoulders

with your hips. Avoid leaning forward. Keep your

back straight.

5. Inner Thigh StretchÑSit with the soles of your

feet together and your knees outward. Pull your

feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold

for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times.

Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

Warm up before you begin.

A warm-up routine prepares your body and mind

for vigorous exercise. It also provides insurance

against injury and soreness. Warm up with two to

five minutes of slow exercise, at minimal intensity.

Stretch after your warm-up.

A pliable, well-stretched muscle is less susceptible

to injury. Perform the recommended stretches on a

smooth, flat surface.

The correct form for several stretches is described

below (refer to the drawings at the right). Be sure to

move slowly as you stretchÑnever bounce.

1. Toe Touch StretchÑSit with your knees bent

slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips.

Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you

reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for

15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3 times.

Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees, and back.

2. Calf/Achilles StretchÑWith one leg in front of

the other, reach forward and place your hands

against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and

your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg,

lean forward, and move your hips toward the wall.

Hold for 15 to 30 seconds, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. To cause further stretching of

the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well.

Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons, and ankles.

BENEFITS OF AEROBIC EXERCISE

to 10 minutes of aerobic activity. Those in average

physical condition should exercise for 20 to 30

minutes. Highly fit people, or people who want to

lose weight, should exercise for 30 to 60 minutes.

The key to the time factor is that you maintain your

target heart rate for the duration of the workout

period.

¥ Effective weight loss and management

¥ Added protection from heart disease

¥ Increased strength and health of bones

¥ Higher levels of energy for greater productivity

during the day

Remember to take it slowly. Fitness is a lifelong

commitment. If you can't go the full 20 minutes

from the start, which is common, try to exercise for

five minutes at a time, a couple of times a day.

Recent research indicates that several short

workouts in one day can also provide fitness

benefits. Gradually, your stamina will increase and

it will become easier to exercise for longer periods

of time.

¥ Healthy stress relief from a pressure-packed

day

¥ Greater intellectual capacity and productivity

Cool down after aerobic exercise.

Effective aerobic exercise has three major parts:

frequency, intensity, and time. The acronym "FIT"

may help you to remember these three parts:

Keep moving! It is important that you cool down

properly to allow your heart rate to decrease slowly

after it has been elevated. This helps the blood

flow from your extremities back to your heart. Keep

your legs moving on the treadmill at a slower pace

for at least five minutes following the aerobic

phase.

ÒFÓ stands for the frequency of your workouts.

Three to five workouts per week are recom-

mended. Exercise at least four times a week for

weight loss.

ÒIÓ refers to the intensity of your workout.

Check your heart rate at least twice during

session.

your aerobic exercise session: once during the

session and once again at the end. Maintain a

workout intensity level within your Target Heart

Rate Zone. You can measure your heart rate using

the heart rate monitor. An alternate method is

described below:

Stretching after exercise reduces muscle soreness.

See step 5 on page 27.

Participate in strength training.

"Balanced fitness, including both strength training

and aerobic exercise, can do more to ensure a

happy life than just about anything else known to

medical science today."

1. Lower your wrist below your heart level. This will

make your heart rate stronger and easier to feel.

2. Using the

hand, touch your

left wrist, one-

fourth inch from

your wrist joint,

at the base of

your thumb.

A strength-training program increases your lean

muscle mass. Lean muscle mass aids in burning

body fat. With additional muscle mass and

strength, you will receive the full benefits of an

exercise program. You will also be less prone to

injuries during the aerobic phase of your workout.

3. Apply minimal pressure with both fingersÑlet

the beat come to your fingers. If you can't find your

pulse, use the opposite wrist and hand.

Move on to the Fitness Level only when you feel ready

and your heart rate has moved below your target heart

rate zone.

WORKOUT TIPS

Full-body conditioning helps take care of many

of life's aches and pains. However, it takes time

for your body to adapt to any new routine. Below

are some tips that will help ease you into your

new NordicTrack routine.

The Fitness level usually lasts 12 to 20 weeks. (It may

last longer, depending on your fitness goals.) At this

level you should strive to achieve your fitness goals.

Set realistic short- and long-term goals for yourself.

Frequently re-evaluate your fitness goals and reward

yourself as you are successful.

¥ Begin and end each exercise session with the

stretches on page 27. Stretch in a smooth,

controlled manner. Hold each stretch for 15 to

30 seconds. You may experience some initial

muscle soreness and discomfort as a result of

exercising inactive or poorly stretched

Move on to the Advanced Level when you have

reached your fitness goals and your heart rate has

moved below your target heart rate zone.

muscles. For maximum benefit, a stretching

routine must be performed every day.

Work out at the Advanced level once you have reached

your desired fitness goals. It is intended to be a mainte-

nance program and should continue on a regular, long-

term basis.

¥ Be aware of your body's signals and react to

them accordingly. At your correct exercise

intensity, you should be able to whistle or

maintain a normal conversation. If during

exercise you feel tired, light-headed, dizzy, or

nauseated, stop exercising immediately and

consult your physician. Your heart rate may

also be affected by such things as stress,

caffeine, nicotine or prescription drugs.

You may wish to add Interval Training to your mainte-

nance program as well. Interval training will add variety

to your workout routine and further condition your

cardiovascular system. Interval training has been

shown to promote higher levels of aerobic conditioning.

It consists of spurts of high-intensity activity followed by

active rest periods of exercise at a lower intensity.

For example, a one-minute spurt of high-resistance,

fast exercise* is followed by a two- to three-minute

active rest period of low-resistance, slow exercise. The

duration of these periods should be based more on

how you feel rather than time. A sequence such as this

should be repeated 5 to 20 times during your workout

session.

WORKOUT PROGRAMS

The Health level typically lasts four to six weeks. At this

level you should be concerned with slowly improving

your fitness level and endurance.

*Estimated maximum heart rate (MHR) = 220 - your age.

Take it slowly. Set mini-goals for yourself. You may

want to begin your fitness routine with three or four

short, 5- or 10-minute workouts in a day.
