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.

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

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

handrails while using the treadmill.

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 275 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 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 athletic

shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,

wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

18. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug the

power cord, and switch 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 reset/off circuit breaker.)

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 9),

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 25.) You

must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to

raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that

meets all of the specifications described on

page 9. To purchase a surge suppressor, see

your local NordicTrack dealer or call 1-800-

806-3651 and order part number 146148.

20. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by

placing objects under the treadmill.

21. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

22. When using iFIT.com CDs and videos, an

electronic “chirping” sound will alert you

when the speed and/or incline of the treadmill

is about to change. Always listen for the

“chirp” and be prepared for speed and/or in-

cline changes. In some instances, the speed

and/or incline may change before the per-

sonal trainer describes the change.

26. Never insert or drop any object into any

opening.

27.

DANGER:

Always unplug the power

cord immediately after use, before cleaning

the treadmill, and before performing the main-

tenance and adjustment procedures de-

scribed in this manual. Never remove the

motor hood unless instructed to do so by an

authorized service representative. Servicing

other than the procedures in this manual

should be performed by an authorized service

representative only.

23. When using iFIT.com CDs and videos, you

can manually override the speed and incline

settings by pressing the speed and incline

buttons. However, when the next “chirp” is

heard, the speed and/or incline will change to

the next settings of the CD or video program.

28. The treadmill is intended for in-home use

only. Do not use the treadmill in any commer-

cial, rental, or institutional setting.

24. Always remove iFIT.com CDs and videos from

your CD player or VCR when you are not

using them.

29. Keep the aromatherapy bottle out of the reach

of children. Essential oil may irritate skin and

is not intended for internal or topical use.

25. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the

treadmill regularly.

WARNING:

Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This

is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

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 treadmill will automatically increase or de-

crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target

heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maxi-

mum speed limit for the program (see step 5 at

the left) and your heart rate is still too far below

the current target heart rate setting, the incline of

the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart

rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

Enter your age.

When a heart rate pro-

gram is selected, the

letters “AGE” and the

current age setting will

begin to flash in the

Speed display. You

must enter your age to use a heart rate program. If

The program will continue until no time remains in

the program. The walking belt will then slow to a

stop.

If the current speed or incline setting is too high or

too low, you can adjust the setting with the Speed

or Incline buttons. However, each time the con-

sole compares your heart rate to the current target

heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the

treadmill may automatically change to bring your

heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

Adjust the maximum speed limit for the

program.

After you have entered

your age, the letters

“SPd” (speed) and the

maximum speed limit

for the program will

flash in the Speed dis-

play. If desired, change the maximum speed limit

by pressing the Speed buttons.

If your pulse is not detected during the program,

the letters “PLS” will flash in the Incline/Heart Rate

display and the speed and incline of the treadmill

may automatically decrease until your pulse is de-

tected. If this occurs, see the instructions included

with the chest pulse sensor.

To stop the program at any time, press the Stop

button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped

temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate

program again, reselect the program and start it at

the beginning.

Press the Start button or the Speed + button to

start the program.

A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-

mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and

incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails

and begin walking.

Follow your progress with the displays.

See step 5 on page 12.

Each heart rate program is divided into 20 one-

minute segments. (The Time/Pace display will

show both the time remaining in the program and

the time remaining in the current segment of the

program.) One target heart rate setting is pro-

grammed for each segment. (The same target

heart rate setting may be programmed for two or

more consecutive segments.)

Turn on the fans if desired.

See step 7 on page 13.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and

follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our Customer Service Department toll-

free at 1-888-825-2588, Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time (excluding holidays).

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor

is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 9). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor

that meets all of the specifications described on page 9. Important: The treadmill is not compatible

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. For more detailed exercise informa-

tion, obtain 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 on the console.

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. The key

to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable

part of your everyday life.

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-
