PROBLEM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly
SOLUTION:
a. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons.
While the incline is changing, re-
move the key.
After a few seconds, re-insert the key. The treadmill will automatically rise to the
maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline system.
PROBLEM: The console displays remain lit when you remove the key from the console
SOLUTION:
a. The console features a display demo mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a
store. If the displays remain lit when you remove the key, the demo mode is turned on. To turn off
the demo mode, hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays are still lit, see THE
INFORMATION MODE on page 28 to turn off the demo mode.
PROBLEM: The chest pulse sensor does not function properly
SOLUTION:
a. If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, see TROUBLESHOOTING on page 13.
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 26.
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 12.)
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
THE TELEVISION SETTINGS on page 26). 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.
