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. Failure to use a properly functioning surge

suppressor could result in damage to the con-

trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys-

tem is damaged, the walking belt may change

speed or stop unexpectedly, which may result

in a fall and serious injury.

2. Use the treadmill only as described in this

manual.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at

least 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.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

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

BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 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.

5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol

products are used or where oxygen is being

administered.

15. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

away from the treadmill at all times.

16. 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 300 pounds.

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. 18. Using hand weights and not holding the

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PERFORMANT LUBE^TMWALKING BELT

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.

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 plat-

form. 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

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 local NordicTrack dealer or call 1-800-806-

3651 and order part number 146148.

Surge Suppressor

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

monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-

cate 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 or stop unexpect-

edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

Lug

Metal Screw

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

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE

THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

The console features an information mode that keeps

track of the total number of hours that the treadmill has

been operated and the total number of miles that the

walking belt has moved. The information mode also

allows you to switch the console from miles per hour to

kilometers per hour. In addition, the information mode

allows you to turn on and turn off the demo mode.

An optional chest pulse sensor adds even more

features to the console. The chest pulse sensor provides

hands-free operation and continuously monitors your

heart rate during your workouts. To purchase the

optional chest pulse sensor, call toll-free 1-800-

734-2377.

To select the information mode, hold down the Stop

button while inserting the key into the console. When

the information mode is selected, the main display will

show the following information:

The right side of the main

display will show the total

number of hours that the

treadmill has been used.

The left side of the main

display will show the total

number of miles that the

walking belt has moved.

An “E” for English miles or

an “M” for metric kilometers

will appear on the right side

of the main display. Press

the Speed + button to

change the unit of measure-

ment.

IMPORTANT: Make sure

that there is not a letter

“D” in the main display. If

a “D” appears in the display,

the console is in the “demo”

mode. This mode is intended

to be used only when a treadmill is displayed in a store.

When the console is in the demo mode, the power cord

can be plugged in, the key can be removed from the

console, and the displays and indicators on the console

will automatically light in a preset sequence, although

the buttons on the console will not operate. If a “D” ap-

pears in the display when the information mode is

selected, press the Speed – button so the display is

blank.

To exit the information mode, remove the key from the

console.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

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

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

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.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

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.

To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the

pulse sensor. If your heart rate is too high or too low,

adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

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

The key to success is to make exercise a regular and

enjoyable part of your everyday life.

Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

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 counts, 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.
