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 suppres-  
sor 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 tread-  
mill is not working properly.)  
2. Use the treadmill only as described in this  
manual.  
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with  
2 m (8 ft.) 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 stand-  
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the  
handrails while using the treadmill.  
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. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid  
sudden jumps in speed.  
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol  
products are used or where oxygen is being  
administered.  
16. Using hand weights and not holding the  
handrails may compromise your ability to  
maintain your balance. Exercises using hand  
weights should be attempted only by experi-  
enced 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 115 kg (250 lbs.).  
17. 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.  
8. Never allow more than one person on the  
treadmill at a time.  
9. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when  
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth-  
ing that could become caught in the treadmill.  
Athletic support clothes are recommended  
for both men and women. Always wear ath-  
letic shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare  
feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
18. 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.)  
10. When connecting the power cord (see page 7),  
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. Do not use an extension cord.  
19. 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 21.)  
You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.)  
to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.  
11. Use only a CUL-listed surge protector, rated at  
15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of 1,5 m (5 ft.) or  
less in length. Do not use an extension cord.  
20. When folding or moving the treadmill, make  
sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

21. When using iFIT.com CD’s and videos, 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 in-  
cline changes. In some instances, the speed  
and/or incline may change before the per-  
sonal trainer describes the change.  
24. Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill  
regularly.  
25. Never insert or drop any object into any  
opening.  
26.  
DANGER:  
Always unplug the power  
cord immediately after use, before cleaning  
the treadmill, and before performing the  
maintenance 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 ser-  
vice representative only.  
22. When using iFIT.com CD’s and videos, you  
can manually override the speed and incline  
settings at any time 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 CD or  
video program.  
27. This treadmill is intended for in-home use  
only. Do not use this treadmill in any com-  
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.  
23. Always remove iFIT.com CD’s and videos  
from your CD player or VCR when you are not  
using them.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This  
is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

ASSEMBLY  
Assembly requires two people. Place the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not  
dispose of the packing materials until the treadmill is assembled. No tools are required.  
Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a  
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt, the sides of the walking platform, or  
the shipping carton. This does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt or  
on the sides of the walking platform, wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.  
1. With the help of a second person, carefully raise the

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT  
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord  
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a  
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge  
protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap-  
propriate outlet that is properly installed and  
grounded in accordance with all local codes and  
ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not com-  
patible with GFCI-equipped outlets.  
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with  
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.  
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other  
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-  
form. They will deteriorate the walking belt and  
cause excessive wear.  
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD  
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 protector to a 2-pole recep-  
tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out-  
let is not available.  
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 in-  
stalled by a qualified electrician.  
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-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.  
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 re-  
sult from weather conditions or from other appliances  
being turned on or off.  
To decrease the pos-  
sibility of your tread-

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
through every step of your workout. High-energy music  
provides added motivation. Each CD features two pro-  
grams designed by certified personal trainers.  
The treadmill console offers an impressive selection of  
features to help you get the most from your exercise.  
In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR  
and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (one video-  
cassette is included). Video programs offer the same  
benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add the excite-  
ment of working out with a class and an instructor—the  
hottest new trend at health clubs.  
When the console is in the manual mode, the speed  
and incline of the treadmill can be changed with a  
touch of a button. As you exercise, the four displays  
will show your workout time, the number of calories  
you have burned, the distance you have walked, the  
incline level of the treadmill, and the speed of the walk-  
ing belt. The console will also show your heart rate  
when the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest  
pulse sensor is used.  
With the treadmill connected to your computer, you  
and access basic programs that interactively control  
the speed and incline of your treadmill to help you  
achieve your specific exercise goals. Or, use iFIT.com  
audio and video programs directly from our internet  
The console also offers four preset workout programs.  
Each program automatically controls the speed and in-  
cline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effec-  
tive workout. If you purchase the optional chest pulse  
sensor, the console’s two pulse programs can also be  
used. Each program controls the speed and incline of  
the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a preset  
range during your workouts.

This number is the maximum heart rate setting for  
the program. If Pulse program 1 is selected, the  
maximum heart rate setting can be from 65% to  
85% of your maximum possible heart rate (your  
maximum possible heart rate is 220 minus your  
age); if Pulse program 2 is selected, the maximum  
heart rate setting can be from 65% to 80% of your  
maximum possible heart rate. Note: Your maxi-  
mum possible heart rate is an estimate only.

For example, if you are 30 years old, your maxi-  
mum possible heart rate is 190 (220 minus 30  
equals 190). Therefore, if Pulse program 1 is se-  
lected, the maximum heart rate setting can be from  
123 to 161 (65% of 190 is 123; 85% of 190 is 161).

the speed will increase. The treadmill will always  
attempt to keep your heart rate near the target  
heart rate setting for the current segment. Note:  
When the incline reaches the lowest setting, the  
speed cannot be increased any further. When the  
incline reaches the highest setting, the speed can-  
not be decreased any further.

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.  
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  
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and  
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
