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.  
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, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,  
which may result in a fall and serious injury.  
2. Use the treadmill only as described in this  
manual.  
12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-  
sor away from heated surfaces.  
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at  
least eight feet of clearance behind it and two  
feet 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.  
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  
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 24 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.  
14. Read, understand, and test the emergency  
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see  
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 11).  
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol  
products are used or oxygen is administered.  
15. 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.  
7. The treadmill should not be used by persons  
weighing more than 350 pounds. Never allow  
more than one person on the treadmill at a time.  
16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid  
sudden jumps in speed.  
8. 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 ath-  
letic shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare  
feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
17. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.  
Various factors, including the user's move-  
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate  
readings. The pulse sensors are intended  
only as an exercise aid in determining heart  
rate trends in general.  
18. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it  
is running. Always remove the key, unplug  
the power cord, and move the reset/off circuit  
breaker to the off position when the treadmill  
is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for  
the location of the circuit breaker.)  
9. 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.  
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 22.)  
You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20

ASSEMBLY  
Assembly requires three persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not  
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. 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 or the shipping carton. This is a normal condition and does not affect treadmill perfor-  
mance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild,  
non-abrasive cleaner.  
Assembly requires the included hex key  
and your own phillips screwdriver  
.

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.

chest pulse sensor should be under your clothes, tight  
against your skin, and as high under the pectoral mus-  
cles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the  
logo on 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 covered by shallow ridges).  
Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens so-  
lution, 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  
• 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.  
• 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

TREADMILL OPERATION  
THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT  
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.  
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.  
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 suppressor to a 2-pole  
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly  
grounded outlet 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

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 REEBOK dealer or call 1-866-997-6999  
and order part number 146148, or see your local  
electronics store.

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 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.  
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-

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER  
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of  
features designed to make your workouts more effec-  
tive.  
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the con-  
sole, remove the plastic. To prevent damage to the  
walking platform, always wear clean 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  
25).  
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the  
speed and incline of the treadmill can be changed with  
the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will  
display instant exercise feedback. You can even mea-

reset position.  
Reset  
Position  
In addition, the console offers ten preset programs.  
Each program automatically controls the speed and in-  
cline of the treadmill as it guides you through an effec-  
tive workout. Two heart rate programs are also offered.  
Each program automatically adjusts the speed and in-  
cline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate within a tar-  
get range while you exercise. The console even allows  
you to create your own programs and save them in  
memory for future use.  
Stand on the foot rails of the treadmill. Find the clip at-  
tached to the key (see the drawing above), and slide  
the clip onto the waistband of your clothes. Next, insert  
the key into the console. After a moment, the displays  
and various indicators will light. Important: In an  
emergency situation, the key can be pulled from  
the console, causing the walking belt to slow to a  
stop. Test the clip by carefully taking a few steps  
backward until the key is pulled from the console.  
If the key is not pulled from the console, adjust the  
position of the clip as needed.  
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the  
steps beginning on page 12. To use a preset pro-  
gram, see page 15. To create and use a custom  
program, see pages 17 and 18 To use a heart rate  
program, see page 19.

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE  
HOW TO ADJUST THE CUSHIONING SYSTEM  
The console features an information mode that keeps  
track of the total number of hours that the treadmill has  
been used and the total number of miles that the walk-  
ing belt has moved. The information mode also allows  
you to select miles or kilometers as the unit of mea-  
surement for speed and distance. In addition, the infor-  
mation mode allows you to turn on and turn off the  
demo mode.  
The treadmill features a cushioning system that re-  
duces the impact as you walk or run on the treadmill.  
To increase the firmness of the walking platform, slide  
the cushion handles (only the right side is shown) to-  
ward the rear of the treadmill. To decrease the firm-  
ness, slide the cushion handles toward the front of the  
treadmill. Note: Make sure both handles are set at  
the same cushion level. The faster you run on the  
treadmill, or the more you weigh, the firmer the  
walking platform should be.  
To select the information mode, hold down either of ei-  
ther of the Stop buttons while inserting the key into the  
console. When the information mode is selected, the  
following information will be shown:  
Decrease

An “E” for English miles or  
an “M” for metric kilometers  
will appear in the Calories  
display. Press the Speed in-  
crease button to change the  
unit of measurement if de-  
sired.  
IMPORTANT: The Pulse  
display should be blank. If  
a “d” appears in the display,  
the console is in the “demo”  
mode. This mode is in-  
tended to be used only  
when a treadmill is displayed in a store. When the con-  
sole 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 au-  
tomatically light in a preset sequence, although the  
buttons on the console will not operate. If a “d” appears  
in the Pulse display when the information mode is  
selected, press the Speed decrease button so the  
display is blank.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal  
is to burn fat, adjust the speed or 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 or 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 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.  
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 or 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 highest 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
