TREADMILL OPERATION
LUBRICATING THE WALKING PLATFORM
• Time—This mode displays the elapsed time.
• Odometer—This mode displays the distance that
the walking belt has moved since batteries were
changed.
Before the treadmill is used, the walking platform
should be lubricated. Open the included lubricant
packet. Reach under one side of the walking belt as
far as you can, and apply half of the lubricant to the
walking platform. Then, reach under the other side of
the walking belt and apply the remaining lubricant.
After you have applied the lubricant, walk on the
treadmill for a few minutes to spread the lubricant.
• Calorie—This mode displays the approximate num-
ber of calories you have burned.
• Scan—This mode displays the Speed, Distance,
Time, Odometer, and Calorie modes.
Follow the steps below to operate the console.
1. Turn on the power.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easi-
ly accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. 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 intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is between the lower two numbers in your
training zone as you exercise.
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 withpre-
existing health problems.
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 effective aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your train-
ing zone.
WHY EXERCISE?
Exercise has proven essential for good health and
well-being. A well-rounded exercise program helps to
develop a stronger and more efficient heart, improved
respiratory function, increased stamina, better weight
management, increased ability to handle stress, and
greater self-esteem.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
EXERCISE INTENSITY
To measure your
heart rate, stop exer-
cising and place two
fingers on your wrist
as shown. Take a
six-second heartbeat
count, and multiply
the result by ten to
find your heart rate.
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
recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic
exercise.
(A six-second count is used because your heart rate
drops quickly when you stop exercising.) If your heart
rate is too high, decrease the intensity of your exer-
cise. If your heart rate is too low, increase the intensity
of your exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
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 are your “training
zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended
heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Each workout should include the following three impor-
tant parts:
A warm-up, consisting of five to ten minutes of
stretching and light exercise. This will increase your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-
ration for exercise.
Burning Fat
Training zone exercise, including 20 to 30 minutes of
exercise with your heart rate in your training zone.
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at the proper
intensity level for a sustained period of time. During

A cool-down, consisting of five to ten minutes of
stretching. Stretching after exercise is effective for
increasing flexibility and helps to offset problems
caused when you stop exercising suddenly.
Instead of waiting for a convenient time to exercise,
plan a specific time. The morning hours work well for
many, and the self-discipline required to rise early and
exercise increases productivity throughout the day. For
others, exercising before dinner helps them to relax.
Whatever time you choose, be consistent.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three

each workout. After a few months of regular exercise,
you may complete up to five workouts each week, if
desired.
