PROBLEM:

 The treadmill circuit breaker trips during a workout.

SOLUTION:

 

Verify the following:

• Make sure the treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 20-amp circuit.

• Verify that you do not have the machine on an extension cord or surge protector.

• Confirm that the machine is not plugged into a GFCI-equipped outlet or on a circuit that has a GFCI-equipped outlet on it.

PROBLEM:

 The running belt does not stay centered during a workout.

SOLUTION:

 

Verify the following:

• Make sure the treadmill is on a level surface.

• Verify that the belt is properly tightened and centered (Refer to the Adjustment section for detailed directions).

PROBLEM:

 Operating speed appears inaccurate.

SOLUTION:

 

Auto-calibrate the treadmill:

• Power on the treadmill and have the safety key in position on the console. Press 

and hold the elevation “+” and speed “-” buttons for approximately 5 seconds 

to enter the Engineering Mode. The console will beep and “ENG0” appears in 

the display.

• Press the Speed “+” or  “-” button until “ENG2” appears in the display.

•  Press,  “ENTER”  to  select.  Press,  “START”  to  begin.  The  treadmill  running 

belt will begin to move automatically and the auto-calibration sequence will 

properly set and store the speed values.

• Upon successful calibration, the treadmill will beep several times. The console 

will automatically exit Engineering Mode and return to the start-up screen.

TROUBLESHOOTING - HEART RATE

Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as fluorescent lights, computers, underground fencing, home security 

systems or appliances containing large motors. These items may cause erratic heart rate readouts.
You may experience an erratic readout under the following conditions:

•  Gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars.

•  Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate handlebars while exercising. If you are receiving erratic heart 

rate readouts, try to only hold the grips long enough to monitor your heart rate.

•  When you are breathing heavily during a workout.

•  When your hands are constricted by wearing a ring.

•  When your hands are dry or cold. Try to moisten your palms by rubbing them together to warm.

•  Anyone with heavy arrhythmia.

•  Anyone with arteriosclerosis or peripheral circulation disorder.

•  Anyone whose skin on the measuring palm is especially thick.

If the above troubleshooting section does not remedy the problem, discontinue use and turn the power off.

PLEASE CALL CUSTOMER TECH SUPPORT AT THE NUMBER ON THE BACK PANEL.

The following information may be asked of you when you call. Please have these items readily available:

•  Model Name

•  Serial Number

•  Date of Purchase (receipt or credit card statement)

In order for Customer Tech Support to service your treadmill they may need to ask detailed questions about the symptoms that are occurring. 

Some troubleshooting questions that may be asked are:

•  How long has this problem been occurring?

•  Does this problem occur with every use? With every user?

•  If you are hearing a noise, does it come from the front or the back? What kind of noise is it (thumping, grinding, squeaking, chirping 

etc.)?

•  Has the machine been lubricated and maintained per the maintenance schedule?

Answering these and other questions will give the technicians the ability to send proper replacement parts and the service necessary to get 

you and your Horizon Fitness treadmill running again!

WARNING

DO NOT

 

stand on running belt while 

calibrating – stand on the guide 

rails. Treadmill will fluctuate between 

low and high speeds for several 

minutes until calibration is complete.
