OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
THE PERFORMANT LUBE
TM
WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBE
TM
, a high-performance lubricant.
IMPOR-
TANT: Never apply silicone 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 must be earthed.
If it should malfunction or break
down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric cur-
rent to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a power cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and a
earthing plug.
Two power cords are included. Select the one that will fit your
outlet. See drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord
into the socket on the treadmill. Next, lift the tab on the ferrite
box and clamp the ferrite box around the power cord. Fasten
the included plastic tie just behind the ferrite box and cut off the
excess plastic tie. The plastic tie will prevent the ferrite box
from sliding along the power cord. See drawing 2. Plug the
power cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped
outlets.
Important: If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a
manufacturer-recommended power cord.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the equipment-earthing conductor can result in an in-
creased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as
to whether the product is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

you have
burned (see FAT BURNING on page 18). The dis-

Heart Rate display
—
This display shows your
heart rate when you use
the pulse sensor (see
step 6).
Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stand on
the foot rails and
place your thumb
on the pulse sensor.
Do not press too
hard, or the circu-
lation in your
thumb will be restricted and your pulse will not
be detected.
When your pulse is detected, the
heart-shaped indicator in the Heart Rate display
will flash each time your heart beats, and your
heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on the
pulse sensor for about 15 seconds for the most ac-
curate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor as de-
scribed above. Remember to stand still whilst
measuring your heart rate.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
key.
Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and
adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest
level.
The incline must be at the lowest level
when the treadmill is raised to the storage po-
sition or the treadmill will be damaged.
Next,
remove the key from the console and put the key
in a secure place.
When you are finished using the treadmill, move
the on/off switch to the off position.
