WARRANTY REGISTRATION

Your warranty card must be completed and sent to Horizon Fitness within thirty days of purchase or reg-
istered on line at www.horizonfitness.com, before a warranty claim can be processed. Please keep receipt
with owner’s guide as it may be required for a warranty claim. Make sure to send in warranty registra-
tion card to valuate your warranty.

An important step in developing a long term fitness program is to determine your goals. Is your pri-
mary goal for exercising on your Horizon Fitness treadmill to lose weight? Improve muscle? Burn
Stress? Prepare for the spring racing schedule? Knowing what your goals are will help you develop
a more successful exercise program. Below are some common exercise goals:

If possible try to define your personal goals in precise, measurable terms, and then put your goals
in writing. The more specific you can be, the easier it will be to track your progress. If your goals are
long term, divide them up into monthly and weekly segments. Longer term goals can lose some of the
immediate motivation benefits. Short term goals are easier to achieve. Your Horizon Fitness treadmill
console provides you with several readouts that can be used to record your progress. You can track
Distance, Calories or Time. Time is the most important and useful of test functions.

KEEPING AN EXERCISE DAIRY

Photocopy the weekly and monthly log sheets on the following pages to make your personal exer-
cise log book. As time goes by you’ll be able to look back with pride at the work you’ve done. As
your fitness improves, you can look back and see how far you’ve come.
