Before contacting your dealer for aid, please review the following information. It may save you
both time and expense. This list includes common problems that may not be covered under the
treadmill’s warranty.
PROBLEM
SOLUTION/CAUSE
Display does not light
1. Tether cord not in position.
2. Circuit breaker on front grill tripped.
Push circuit breaker in until it locks.
3. Plug is disconnected. Make sure plug is firmly
pushed into AC household wall outlet.

Tread-belt does not stay centered
Treadmill belt hesitates when
walked/run on
The user may be walking while favoring or putting
more weight on either the left or right foot. If this
walking pattern is natural, track the belt slightly
off-center to the side opposite from the belt
movement. See
General Maintenance
section on
Tread-belt Tension
. Adjust as necessary.
Motor is not responsive after
pressing Start
1. If the belt moves, but stops after a short time and
the display shows “E1”, run calibration.
2. If you press
Start
and the belt never moves, then
the display shows “E1”, contact service.
Treadmill will only achieve
approximately 7 mph but shows
higher speed on display
This indicates motor should be receiving power to
operate. Low AC voltage to treadmill. Do not use an
extension cord. If an extension cord is required it
should be as short as possible and heavy duty 16
gauge minimum. Low household voltage. Contact an
electrician or your SOLE dealer. A minimum of 220 volt
AC current is required.
