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.
11. 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,
which may result in a fall and serious injury.
2. Use the treadmill only as described in this
manual.
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
a mat under the treadmill.
12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-
sor 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
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 26 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.
14. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.
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.
15. 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 350 pounds. Never allow
more than one person on the treadmill at a time.
16. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user's move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids in determining heart
rate trends in general.
8. 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 ath-
letic shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare
feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.
17. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord, and move the reset/off circuit
breaker to the “off” position when the tread-
mill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5
for the location of the circuit breaker.)
9. 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.
18. 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 24.)
You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20
kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
10. 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 REEBOK dealer or call 1-877-994-
4999 and order part number 146148, or see
your local electronics store.
19. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

20. 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.
23. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the
treadmill every three months.
24. Never drop or insert any object into any open-
ing.
25.
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.
21. When using iFIT.com CDs and videos, you can
manually override the speed and incline set-
tings at any time by pressing the speed and in-
cline 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.
22. Always remove iFIT.com CDs and videos from
your CD player or VCR when you are not
using them.
26. The treadmill is intended for in-home use
only. Do not use the treadmill in any
commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
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.
Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property
damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

dried. If the chest pulse sensor is not dried after
each use, it may remain activated longer than nec-
essary, draining the battery prematurely.
The chest pulse sensor 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 into
one end of the sensor unit, as shown in the inset draw-
ing. Press the end of the sensor unit under the buckle
on the chest strap. The tab should be flush with the
front of the sensor unit.
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor 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 chest pulse sensor.

sor should be under your clothes, 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.
• 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 arm’s 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 covered by shallow ridges).
Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens so-
lution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor unit
to a position against your chest.
• The chest pulse sensor 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.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be
affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.
• Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each
use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate
monitor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off
when it is removed and the electrode areas are

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 REEBOK dealer or call 1-877-994-4999
and order part number 146148, or see your local
electronics store.

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, accelerate, or stop
unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and seri-
ous injury.

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

the four heart rate pro-
gram indicators lights.
When you are finished using the treadmill,
switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the reset
position and unplug the power cord.
The upper four profiles on the right side of the ma-
trix show how the target heart rate will change
during the programs. During heart rate programs
1, 2, and 3, your heart rate will reach up to 85% of
your estimated maximum heart rate; during the
Self Select program, your heart rate will remain
near a target heart rate that you select. Note: Your
estimated maximum heart rate is determined by
subtracting your age from 220. For example, if
you are 30 years old, your estimated maximum
heart rate is 190 beats per minute (220 – 30 = 190).
During heart rate pro-
grams, the matrix will
show a graphic that rep-
resents your heart rate.
Each time a heartbeat is
detected, an additional
peak will appear.

During each segment, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the current target heart
rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or
above the target heart rate setting, the speed of
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 setting of the program (see step 4 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.

EXERCISE 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 or 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 or incline
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle
number in your training zone.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user's move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids 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 or 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
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 highest 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
handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
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-

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
3
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
tendons and ankles.
