each use, it may remain activated longer than nec-  
essary, draining the battery prematurely.  
The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:  
the chest strap and the sensor unit (see the drawing  
below). Insert the tab on one end of the chest strap into  
one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset draw-  
ing. Press the end of the sensor unit under the buckle  
on the chest strap. The tab should be flush with the  
front of the sensor unit.  
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.  
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag  
or other container that may trap moisture.  
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct  
sunlight for extended periods of time; do not expose  
it to temperatures above 122° Fahrenheit (50°  
Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit (-10° Celsius).  
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit  
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.

does not function when positioned as described, try  
moving it slightly lower or higher on your chest.  
• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens  
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the

the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.  
• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position your-  
self near the center of the walking belt. For the  
console to display heart rate readings, the user  
must be within arm’s length of the console.  
Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches  
and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side.  
The electrode areas are the areas covered by shallow  
ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or contact  
lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the  
sensor unit to a position against your chest.  
• The chest pulse sensor is designed to work with  
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate  
reading problems may be caused by medical  
conditions such as premature ventricular contrac-  
tions (pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.  
CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each  
use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the  
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate  
monitor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off  
when it is removed and the electrode areas are  
dried. If the chest pulse sensor is not dried after  
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be  
affected by magnetic interference caused by high  
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that  
this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.  
• The CR2032 battery may need to be replaced (see  
page 27).

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT  
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.  
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. Such substances will deteriorate the walking  
belt and cause excessive wear.

DANGER:  
Improper connection

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

Grounded Outlet Box  
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  
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).  
Surge Suppressor  
Lug  
Metal Screw  
To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local  
HEALTHRIDER dealer or call 1-800-999-3756 and  
order part number 146148. Use only a single-outlet  
surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient  
voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppres-  
sor 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.  
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.  
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  
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 all local codes and ordinances.  
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with  
GFCI-equipped outlets.

will be selected  
and the manual  
indicator will  
light. To select  
one of the pre-  
set programs,  
press the Select  
Workout button repeatedly until one of the six  
preset program indicators lights.  
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-  
ment of the program, both the Current Segment  
column and the column to the right will flash, a se-  
ries of tones will sound, and all speed settings will  
move one column to the left. The speed setting for  
the second segment will then be shown in the  
flashing Current Segment column and the tread-  
mill will automatically adjust to the speed and in-  
cline settings for the second segment.  
The profiles on the console show how the speed  
and incline of the treadmill will change during the  
preset programs—the white profiles show speed  
settings and the green lines show incline settings.  
The numbers at the left ends of the profiles show  
the speed and incline ranges for the programs.  
During the Healthwalk program, for example, the  
speed of the walking belt will vary from 2 mph to 4  
mph and the incline will vary from 0% to 6%. The  
program display will  
show a simplified pro-  
file of the program. The  
Time/Segment Time  
display will show how  
long the selected pro-  
gram will last.  
The program will continue in this way until the  
speed setting for the last segment is shown in the  
Current Segment column and no time remains in  
the Time/Segment Time display. The walking belt  
will then slow to a stop.  
Note: Each time a segment ends and the speed  
settings move one column to the left, if all of the  
indicators in the Current Segment column are lit,  
the speed settings will move downward so that only  
the highest indicators in the columns will appear in  
the program display. When the speed settings  
move to the left again and not all of the indicators  
in the Current Segment column are lit, the speed  
settings will move back up.  
Put on the chest pulse sensor if desired.

If the speed or incline setting for the current  
segment is too high or too low, you can manually  
override the setting by pressing the Speed or  
Incline buttons on the console. Every few times  
one of the Speed buttons is pressed, an additional  
indicator will light or darken in the Current Segment  
column. If any of the columns to the right of the  
Current Segment column have the same number  
of lit indicators as the Current Period column, an  
additional indicator will light or darken in those  
columns as well. Note: If you manually adjust the  
speed setting so that all of the indicators in the  
Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings  
in the program display will not move downward as  
described above. When the current segment of  
the program ends, the treadmill will automati-  
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings  
for the next segment.

will move one column to the left. The heart rate  
setting for the second segment will then be shown  
in the flashing Current Segment column. As you  
exercise, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill  
will automatically change as needed to keep your  
heart rate near the current target heart rate setting.  
Enter a maximum heart rate setting.  
5
After you have  
entered your  
age, another  
number will  
begin to flash in  
the Pulse/  
Calories display.  
The program will continue until no time remains in  
the Time/Segment Time display. The walking belt  
will then slow to a stop.  
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 maximum  
possible heart rate is an estimate only.  
If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-  
ment is too high or too low, you can adjust the set-  
ting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, if  
you decrease the speed, the incline will automati-  
cally increase; if you increase the speed, the in-  
cline will decrease. If you increase the incline, the  
speed will decrease; if you decrease the incline,  
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.  
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).  
If you want to change the maximum heart rate set-  
If your heart rate is not detected during the pro-

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body  
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal  
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. Remember—these are general guide-  
lines only. For more detailed exercise information, ob-  
tain a reputable book or consult your physician.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
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  
To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the  
chest pulse sensor. If your heart rate is too high or too  
low, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill.  
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.  
Fat Burning  
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-  
The key to success is to make exercise a regular and  
enjoyable part of your everyday life.
