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 protector  
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 BE-  
FORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the treadmill  
is not working properly.)  
2. Use the treadmill only as described in this  
manual.  
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with  
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.  
14. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-  
ing on the walking belt.  
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. Always hold the handrails when walking or  
running on the treadmill.  
16. 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 oxygen is administered.  
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets  
away from the treadmill at all times.  
17. The hand pulse sensor is not a medical  
device. Various factors, including the user's  
movement, may affect the accuracy of heart  
rate readings. The hand pulse sensor is in-  
tended only as an exercise aid in determining  
heart rate trends in general.  
7. The treadmill should not be used by persons  
weighing more than 250 pounds. Never allow  
more than one person on the treadmill at a  
time.  
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.)  
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when  
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose  
clothing that could become caught in the  
treadmill. Athletic support clothes are recom-  
mended for both men and women.  
9. Always wear athletic shoes when using the  
treadmill—never use the treadmill with bare  
feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
19. Never drop or insert any object into any  
opening.  
20. When operating the treadmill, keep hands  
and feet from underneath the treadmill.  
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.  
21. You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20  
kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.  
22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make  
sure that the lock knob is fully engaged.  
11. Use only a UL-listed surge protector, rated at  
15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or  
less in length. Do not use an extension cord.  
23. Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill  
every three months.

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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS  
TM  
THE PERFORMANT LUBE WALKING BELT  
of 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.  
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.  
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.  
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 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-

CAUTION:  
Before operating the

the console, the walking belt will stop.  
• The treadmill is capable of high speeds;  
adjust the speed in small increments.  
• Do not stand on the walking belt when turning  
on the power or starting the walking belt.  
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the  
console dry. Avoid spilling liquid on the  
console and use only a sealable water bottle.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
• The optional CD module enables the console to play  
specially-designed CD’s that automatically adjust the  
speed and incline of the treadmill while a personal  
trainer coaches you through every step of your work-  
out. High-energy music provides added motivation.  
The CD module comes complete with two CD work-  
out programs and a set of high-quality hand weights  
for upper body exercise.  
The advanced console offers an impressive array of  
features to make your workouts more enjoyable and  
effective. 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 LED displays  
will provide continuous exercise feedback. And with  
the built-in hand pulse sensor, you can measure your  
heart rate before you begin exercising, during your  
workout, and again when you finish.  
• The optional EARN Fitness Analysis module helps  
you see the rewards of your exercise program by  
calculating your body fat, measuring your cardiovas-  
cular strength, and determining your fitness age.  
The console also offers six preset workout programs.  
Three programs automatically control the incline of the  
treadmill and three programs control the speed of the  
treadmill as they guide you through effective workouts.  
You can even create your own workout programs and  
store them in memory for future use.  
• An optional chest-worn pulse sensor continuously  
monitors your heart rate during your workouts, and  
adds two workout programs to the console—one  
program for intensive fat-burning, and one for maximum  
cardiovascular benefits.  
In addition, three optional accessories add even more  
features to the console:

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  
hand 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.
