draining the battery prematurely.  
The heart rate monitor 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  
through one of the holes in the sensor unit. Press the  
end of the sensor unit under the buckle on the chest  
strap. The tab should be almost flush with the front of  
the sensor unit.

Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag  
or other container that may trap moisture.  
¥ Do not expose the heart rate monitor 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 heart rate monitor.

heart rate moni-  
tor should be under your clothing, tight against your  
skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or  
breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on  
the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.  
¥ Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens  
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the  
sensor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until  
you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.  
¥ 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 armÕs 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 heart rate monitor 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.  
HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
¥ Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each  
use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the  
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate  
monitor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off  
when it is removed and the electrode areas are  
dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each

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  
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 productÑif it will  
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

Grounded Outlet Box  
Adapter  
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated  
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by  
sudden voltage changes in your homeÕs 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  
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores  
and department stores. Use only a single-outlet surge  
suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage  
surge suppressor (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.  
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.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
CAUTION:To reduce the risk of  
serious injury, read the following precautions  
before operating the console.  
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of  
features designed to make your workouts more 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 console will display instant  
exercise feedbackÑyou can watch your progress on the  
LED Òtrack,Ó while the four displays show your heart rate,  
the number of calories burned, the incline, workout time,  
speed, pace, distance, and laps completed.  
¥ Do not stand on the walking belt when  
turning on the power or starting the  
walking belt.  
¥ Always wear the clip (see part ÒOÓ in the  
drawing above) while operating the tread-  
mill. If the key is pulled from the console,  
the walking belt will stop.  
Eight preset programs are also offered: three incline pro-  
grams automatically control the incline of the treadmill as  
they guide you through effective workouts; three speed  
programs automatically control the speed of the treadmill;  
and two pulse driven programs automatically control the  
speed and the incline of the treadmill to keep your heart  
rate within a predetermined range during your workouts.  
¥ The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments.  
¥ The heart rate monitor is not a medical de-  
vice. Various factors may affect the accu-  
racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate  
monitor is intended only as an exercise aid  
in determining heart rate trends in general.  
The console also features two custom programs that  
allow you to create your own workout programs and store  
them in the consoleÕs memory for future use.  
¥ If you have heart problems, or if you are  
over 60 years of age and have been inac-  
tive, do not use the two pulse driven pro-  
grams. If you are taking medication regu-  
larly, consult your physician to find  
whether the medication will affect your  
exercise heart rate.  
To use the manual mode, follow the steps beginning on  
page 10. To use an incline program or a speed pro-  
gram, see page 12. To use a pulse driven program, see  
page 13. To create a custom program, see page 14. To  
use a custom program, see page 15.  
Note: The console can display speed and distance in  
either miles or kilometers (see SPEED/PACE DISPLAY  
on page 11). For simplicity, all instructions in this section  
refer to miles.  
¥ To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep  
the console dry, avoid spilling liquids on  
the console, and use only a sealed water  
bottle.

While the program is in progress, minor adjustments  
can be made to the speed or incline of the treadmill  
with the SPEED or INCLINE buttons. However, if  
you increase the speed, the incline will automatically  
decrease; if you decrease the speed, the incline will  
increase. If you increase the incline, the speed will  
decrease; if you decrease the incline, the speed will  
increase. The console will always attempt to keep  
your heart rate near the heart rate setting shown in  
the flashing column. Note: When the incline reaches  
the lowest setting, the speed cannot be increased  
any further. When the incline reaches the highest  
setting, the speed cannot be decreased any further.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
Burning Fat  
WARNING:  
Before beginning  
To burn fat, you must exercise at a low intensity level  
for a sustained period of time. During the first few  
minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible  
carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few  
minutes of exercise 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  
near the low end of your training zone as you exercise.  
this or any exercise program, consult your  
physician. This is especially important for in-  
dividuals over the age of 35 or individuals  
with pre-existing health problems.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-  
ercise program. RememberÑthese are general guide-  
lines. For more detailed information about exercise,  
obtain a book or consult your physician.  
WARNING:  
The heart rate moni-  
tor is not a medical device. Various factors, in-  
cluding your movement, may affect the accu-  
racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate  
monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in  
determining heart rate trends in general.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or strengthen your car-  
diovascular 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. For effective exercise, your heart rate  
should be maintained at a level between 70% and 85%  
of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is  
known as your training zone.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó 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 intensity of your exercise until your heart  
rate is near the middle of your training zone.  
You can find your training zone in the table below.  
Training zones are listed according to age and physical  
condition.

Warm-up  
Warming up prepares the body for exercise by increas-  
ing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the muscles,  
and raising the body temperature. Begin each workout  
with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to  
warm up (see SUGGESTED STRETCHES on page 21).  
Training Zone Exercise  
After warming up, increase the intensity of your exer-  
cise until your heart rate is in your training zone for 20  
to 60 minutes. (During the first few weeks of your exer-  
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your train-  
ing zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly
