PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-center or slips when walked on
SOLUTION:
a. If the walking belt is off-center, remove the key and
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking belt
has shifted to the left,
use the hex key to turn the left
idler roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn;
if the walking
belt has shifted to the right,
turn the left idler roller
bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to
overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord, in-
sert 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
hex key, turn both idler roller bolts clockwise, 1/4 of a
turn. When the walking belt is correctly tightened, you
should be able to lift each edge of the walking belt 3 to
4 in. (8 to 10 cm) off the walking platform. Be careful to
keep the walking belt centered. Then, 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: Television reception is poor
SOLUTION:
a. Make sure that the television settings are set correctly. See HOW TO ADJUST THE TELEVISION
SETTINGS on page 24.
b. For the digital television to operate properly, good reception is necessary. If you are using an an-
tenna, make sure that it is properly connected and adjusted for optimal reception. (See HOW TO
CONNECT AN ANTENNA on page 13.)
c. Check for the problems listed below and follow the applicable instructions.
• Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)—
Usually this is caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric
drifts, or other electric appliances. Try changing the position of the treadmill or other electric
appliances to correct the problem.
• Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path
and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects. Change the direction or po-
sition of the antenna to improve reception.
• Blue Screen—If the treadmill is located in the fringe area of a television station where the sig-
nal is weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue screen may appear. If the signal is
weak, it may be necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.
• Fading—If blocks of the picture are missing, the picture moves around the screen, or the pic-
ture disappears, the signal may be weak. Change the direction or position of the antenna to im-
prove reception. Make sure the television settings are set correctly (see HOW TO ADJUST
TELEVISION SETTINGS on page 24). Do not use a splitter.
Note: If one of these problems appears when the cable from a CATV company is connected, the
problem may be caused by the cable company broadcast.
