1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure  
that all users of this treadmill are adequately  
informed of all warnings and precautions.  
or see your local electronics store.  
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, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,  
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  
protect the floor or carpet from damage, place

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-  
sor away from heated surfaces.  
14. 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 TROU-  
BLESHOOTING on page 22 if the treadmill 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. Read, understand, and test the emergency  
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see  
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT on page 10).  
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets  
away from the treadmill at all times.  
16. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-  
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the  
handrails while using the treadmill.  
7. The treadmill should be used only by persons  
weighing 300 pounds or less.  
8. Never allow more than one person on the  
treadmill at a time.  
17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid  
sudden jumps in speed.

both men and women. Always wear athletic  
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,  
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
18. 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.  
10. When connecting the power cord (see page  
10), plug the power cord into a surge sup-  
pressor (not included). Plug the surge sup-  
pressor 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. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it  
is running. Always remove the key, unplug  
the power cord, and switch the reset/off cir-  
cuit 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.)

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
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 PROFORM dealer or call the toll-free  
telephone number on the front cover of this man-  
ual 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  
The console also offers two pulse programs that con-  
trol the speed and incline of the treadmill to keep your  
heart rate near target heart rate settings during your  
workouts. Note: The pulse programs require the use of  
the optional chest pulse sensor.  
The treadmill console offers an impressive array of  
features designed to make your workouts more effec-  
tive. When the manual mode of the console is se-  
lected, you can change the speed and incline of the  
treadmill with the touch of a button. As you exercise,  
the console will display continuous exercise feedback.  
You can even measure your heart rate using the hand-  
grip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor  
(see page 19).  
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the  
steps beginning on page 12. To use a personal  
trainer program, see page 14. To create and use a  
custom program, see pages 15 and 16. To use a  
pulse program, see page 17.  
In addition, the console features ten personal trainer  
programs. Each program automatically controls the  
speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides you  
through an effective workout. You can even create  
your own custom programs and store them in memory  
for future use.  
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face  
of the console, remove the plastic. To prevent dam-  
age to the walking platform, always wear clean  
shoes while using the treadmill.

HOW TO USE A PERSONAL TRAINER PROGRAM  
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-  
ment of the program, both the Current Segment  
column and the column to the right will flash and a  
series of tones will sound. If the speed and/or in-  
cline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed  
setting and/or the incline setting will flash in the  
display to alert you.  
Insert the key into the console.

To select a personal trainer program, press one of  
the ten personal trainer program buttons (see the  
drawing on page 11); “P1,” “P2,” “P3,” “P4,” “P5,”  
“P8,” “P9,” “P10,” “P11,” or “P12” will appear in the  
priority display for a few seconds.  
When the first segment is completed, all speed  
settings will move one column to the left. The  
speed setting for the second segment will then be  
shown in the flashing Current Segment column,  
and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the  
speed and incline settings for the second seg-  
ment. Note: If all seven of the indicators in the  
Current Segment column are lit, the speed settings  
may move downward so that only the highest indi-  
cators appear in the matrix.  
The program will continue in this way until the  
speed setting for the last segment is shown in the  
Current Segment column and the last segment  
ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.  
A few seconds after a personal trainer program is  
selected, the maximum incline setting of the pro-  
gram and the maximum speed setting of the pro-  
gram will flash in the display for a few seconds.  
The display will then show how long the program  
will last. A profile of the speed settings of the pro-  
gram will scroll across the matrix.  
If the speed or incline setting for the current seg-  
ment is too high or too low, you can manually  
override the setting by pressing the Speed or  
Incline buttons. Every few times a Speed button is  
pressed, an additional indicator will appear or dis-  
appear in the Current Segment column; if any of  
the columns to the right of the Current Segment  
column have the same number of lit indicators as  
the Current Segment column, an additional indica-  
tor may appear or disappear in those columns as  
well. Important: When the current segment of  
the program ends, the treadmill will automati-  
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings  
for the next segment.  
Press the Start button or the Speed + button to  
start the program.

Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-  
ments. One speed setting and one incline setting  
are programmed for each segment. Note: The  
same speed setting and/or incline setting may be  
programmed for two or more consecutive seg-  
ments.  
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop  
button. To restart the program, press the Start but-  
ton or the Speed + button. The walking belt will  
begin to move at 1 mph. When the next segment  
of the program begins, the treadmill will automati-  
cally adjust to the speed and incline settings for the  
next segment.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
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  
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 heart rate is in  
your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the  
first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep  
your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20  
minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exer-  
cise—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-  
exercise 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

SUGGESTED STRETCHES  
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.  
1. Toe Touch Stretch  
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from  
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach  
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then  
relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and  
back.

2. Hamstring Stretch  
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward  
you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach  
toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.  
Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and  
groin.  
2
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch  
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your  
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot  
flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your  
hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times  
for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons,  
bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and  
ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch  
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one  
foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks  
as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each  
leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.  
5. Inner Thigh Stretch  
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull  
your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15  
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip  
muscles.
