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 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.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor protector 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

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.

15. 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 where oxygen is being

administered.

16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust

the speed in small increments to avoid sudden

jumps in speed.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should not be used by persons

weighing more than 275 pounds.

17. To reduce the possibility of the treadmill over-

heating, do not operate the treadmill continu-

ously for longer than one hour.

8. Never allow more than one person on the

treadmill at a time.

18. The heart rate monitor is not a medical de-

vice. Various factors, including the user's

movement, may affect the accuracy of heart

rate readings. The heart rate monitor is in-

tended only as an exercise aid in determining

heart rate trends in general.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth-

ing 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.

19. 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.)

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.

20. Do not raise, lower, or move the treadmill

until it is properly set up. (See HOW TO SET

UP THE TREADMILL 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.

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 REEBOK dealer or call 1-800-806-

3651 and order part number 146148.

21. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by

placing objects under the treadmill.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

26. Always remove iFIT.com CD’s and videos

from your CD player or VCR when you are not

using them.

23. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the

treadmill regularly.

27. Never drop or insert any object into any

opening.

24. When using iFIT.com CD’s 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.

28. This treadmill is intended for home use only.

Do not use this treadmill in any commercial,

rental, or institutional setting.

29.

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.

25. When using iFIT.com CD’s 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.

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.

HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE MONITOR

HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR

HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Before you use the heart rate monitor, please read all

instructions on this page and the following page.

• 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

use, it may remain activated longer than necessary,

draining the battery prematurely.

The heart rate mon-

itor consists of two

components: the

chest strap and the

sensor unit.

Chest Strap

See drawing 2 and

attach the chest

strap to the sensor

unit. Insert one of

the tabs on the

chest strap through

one end of the sen-

sor unit. Make sure

to press the end of

the sensor unit

• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. 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 the heart rate monitor to tempera-

tures above 122° Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below

14° Fahrenheit (-10° Celsius).

under the buckle on

the chest strap—

the tab should be

almost flush with

the sensor unit.

• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit

when using or storing the heart rate monitor.

Sensor

Unit

Buckle

• Clean the sensor unit periodically using a damp

cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.

The chest strap may be hand washed and air dried.

Next, wrap the heart

rate monitor around

your chest and at-

tach the other end of

the chest strap to

the sensor unit.

Adjust the length of

the chest strap, if

necessary.

HEART RATE MONITOR TROUBLESHOOTING

The instructions on the following pages explain

how the heart rate monitor is used with the console.

If the letters “PLS” appear in the PULSE display or if

the displayed heart rate is excessively high or low,

try the steps below.

• Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate moni-

tor exactly as described at the left. If the heart rate

monitor does not function properly when positioned

as described, move it slightly lower or higher on your

chest.

The heart rate moni-

tor should be under

your clothing, tight

against your skin, and as high under the pectoral mus-

cles 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.

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.

• 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.

• 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.

Locate the battery cover

on the back of the sen-

sor unit. Insert a coin

into the slot in the cover

TREADMILL OPERATION

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 appli-

ances being turned on or off. To decrease the pos-

sibility of your treadmill being damaged, always

use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see

drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge sup-

pressor, see your local REEBOK dealer or call

1-800-806-3651 and order part number 146148.

Adapter

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 console also offers six preset workout programs—

two fat-burning programs that automatically control the

speed and incline of the treadmill to give you effective

fat-burning workouts; two aerobic programs that control

the speed and incline of the treadmill to provide optimal

aerobic exercise; and two pulse programs that change

the speed and incline to keep your heart rate near tar-

get heart rate settings during your workouts.

In addition, you can connect the treadmill to your VCR

and TV and play iFIT.com video programs (videocas-

settes are available separately). Video programs offer

the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, but add

the excitement of working out with a class and an

instructor—the hottest new trend at health clubs.

can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and ac-

cess programs directly from the internet. Additional op-

tions are soon to be available. See www.iFIT.com for

details.

You can even create your own custom workout pro-

grams and save them in memory for future use.

The console also features new iFIT.com interactive

technology. iFIT.com technology is like having a per-

sonal trainer right in your home. Using the included

d. Make sure that the on/off switch is in the on position (see d. above).

e. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our Customer Service Department, toll-free.

PROBLEM: The walking belt slows when walked on

SOLUTION: a. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 9.

b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE

POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both

rear roller adjustment bolts counterclockwise 1/4 of a

turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened, you

should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 3 to

4 inches off the walking platform. Be careful to keep

the walking belt centered. Plug in the power cord, in-

sert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.

Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.

PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on

SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-center, first remove the key

and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking

belt has shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to

turn the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if

the walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the

bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to

overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord,

insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes.

Repeat until the walking belt is centered.

b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove

the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using

the allen wrench, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise,

1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly tight-

ened, you should be able to lift each side of the walk-

ing belt 3 to 4 inches off the walking platform. Be

careful to keep the walking belt centered. Plug in the

power cord, insert the key and carefully walk on the

treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walking

belt is properly tightened.

PROBLEM: The SPEED/PACE display on the console does not function properly

SOLUTION: a. Remove the key from the console and unplug the

power cord. Remove the screws from the hood and

carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch

(17) and the Magnet (12) on the left side of the Pulley

(11). Turn the Pulley until the Magnet is aligned with

the Reed Switch. Make sure that the gap between

the Magnet and the Reed Switch is about 1/8”. If

necessary, loosen the Reed Switch Screw (26) and

move the Reed Switch slightly. Retighten the Screw.

Re-attach the hood and run the treadmill for a few

minutes to check for a correct speed reading.

REEBOK UNIVERSITY

Reebok University was launched in 1993 to fulfill a

vision to establish a “university without walls” that

develops quality, researched, state-of-the-art fitness

programming for the fitness industry throughout the

world.

WALKING AND REDUCED RISK FOR CARDIOVAS-

CULAR DISEASE

Several studies have found that regular walking at any

speed can increase HDL-C cholesterol (a high-density

lipoprotein which removes excess cholesterol from the

body) and can lower concentrations of blood triglyc-

erides (a storage form of fat), thus reducing the risk for

Working with the world’s best professionals, Reebok

University has created a host of original programs,

such as Step Reebok^®, Walk Reebok^SM, Slide Reebok^SMcardiovascular disease.

and Reebok City Jam^SM. The industry has adopted

Reebok programming as the “gold” standard. Our

guidelines and terminology are used by fitness profes-

sionals and participants around the world, and our

exceptional programming has been approved in the

United States by AFAA and ACE for continuing educa-

tion credits.

Duncan and his colleagues³concluded that exercise

does not have to be vigorous to reduce cardiovascular

risk factors. In other words, people who choose to

stroll rather than walk briskly can reduce their risk for

cardiovascular disease.

After studying the physical activity patterns of 17,000

Harvard alumni over a 20-year period, Paffenbarger

and his colleagues⁴concluded that walking as little as

five city blocks per day can reduce the risk of cardio-

vascular disease, and walking 2 miles per day can

reduce the risk of a heart attack by 28% or more.

Therefore, while walking at a fast pace will improve

aerobic fitness, walking at any speed (slow or fast) can

reduce a person's risk for heart disease.

WALKING AND CARDIORESPIRATORY

ENDURANCE

Scientific studies confirm that

walking at a moderate to brisk

pace can enhance aero-

bic fitness. Rippe and

his colleagues¹found

that of 500 subjects

tested, 67% of the men

and 90% of the women

were able to reach their

target heart rates by

walking 4 to 4.5 miles

per hour.

WALKING AND WEIGHT REDUCTION

Walking is an excellent activity for burning calories.

The steeper the incline and/or the faster the speed, the

more calories are burned. For example, a 150-pound

person walking at 3.5 miles per hour on flat ground will

burn about 300 calories per hour. This same person

will burn 400 calories per hour on a gentle 4% incline

and 500 calories per hour on a steeper 10% incline. If

this person speeds the pace up to 4 miles per hour on

level ground, 350 calories will be burned in one hour.⁵

Pollock and his colleagues²found that middle-aged

men who walked at a pace of 3.5 to 4.5 miles per hour

for 40 minutes four times per week had the same car-

diovascular improvements as men the same age who

jogged for 30 minutes three times per week. Although

the intensity of exercise was lower for the walkers than

the runners, the increased duration and frequency of

walking provided the walkers with similar aerobic ben-

efits as the runners.

It should be noted that participants who do not wish to

walk at faster speeds can burn a comparable number

of calories by walking for longer periods of time.

WALKING AND BONE DENSITY

Osteoporosis is a major health problem in the United

States, affecting an estimated 15 to 30 million people.

An age-related disorder, osteoporosis reduces the

density of bones. This disease can be life-threatening

since many older people die as a result of complica-

tions suffered from broken bones. Adequate calcium in

the diet and weight-bearing exercises seem to reduce

the risk of osteoporosis.

On the basis of current research, it seems clear that

walking at a moderate to brisk pace can be an excel-

lent aerobic activity.

Several studies have reported that regular walking at

moderate to brisk speeds appears to increase bone

density. Specifically, Fradin and his colleagues⁶found

that 70-year-old subjects who walked at least 30 min-

utes per day had higher bone mineral content than

subjects who walked less than 30 minutes per day.

Jones and his colleagues⁷reported that sedentary

women (aged 30 to 61 years old) who began a regular

walking program and continued for one year increased

their bone density.

During a 24-week study, not one of 59 participants

who walked five days a week at speeds between 3 and

5 miles per hour sustained a walking-related injury that

necessitated consulting with a physician. Carroll and

his colleagues¹⁰reported that 14% of the elderly sub-

jects participating in a walking study suffered training-

related orthopedic injuries, mostly to the lower leg and

foot. The majority of injuries occurred in the group as-

signed to "fast walking."

It is important to note that all forms of exercise have

some degree of risk associated with the activity.

Generally, the less mechanical stress on the muscu-

loskeletal system, the less risk of becoming injured.

Because of the low-impact nature of walking, the inci-

dence of injury appears to be low when compared to

other high-impact activities.

Since walking can be comfortably performed by people

of any age, walking appears to be practical and effec-

tive in reducing a person's risk for developing osteo-

porosis.

WALKING AND STRESS REDUCTION

There are many stressors in today's society, including

economic concerns, work-related pressures and the

need to balance career goals with home responsibili-

ties. People who are unable to cope with these types

of stressors are often tense and anxious, and may

even become physically or psychologically ill.

WALKING AND INJURIES

Walking is often associated with a low injury rate.

Walking is considered to be a "low impact" activity be-

cause one foot remains in contact with the ground at

all times. Walking at speeds of 3 miles per hour pro-

duces vertical impact forces that are around 1.25 times

body weight, whereas running at 7 miles per hour in-

creases vertical impact forces to more than 2.5 times

body weight.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

During the first few minutes of exercise, your body

uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-

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.

The heart rate monitor is not a medical de-

vice. Various factors, including the user's

movement, may affect the accuracy of heart

rate readings. The heart rate monitor is in-

tended only as an exercise aid in determining

heart rate trends in general.

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.

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 pro-

longed 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, ad-

just 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 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-ex-

ercise problems.

You can measure your heart rate using the heart rate

monitor.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three

workouts each week, with at least one day of rest

between workouts. After a few months, you may

complete 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.
