IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the  
following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.  
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure  
that all users of this treadmill are adequately  
informed of all warnings and precautions.  
12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge  
suppressor could result in damage to the con-  
trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys-  
tem is damaged, the walking belt may change  
speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,  
which may result in a fall and serious injury.  
2. Use the treadmill only as described.  
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at  
least eight feet of clearance behind it and two  
feet on each side. Do not place the treadmill  
on any surface that blocks air openings. To  
13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-  
sor away from heated surfaces.  
protect the floor or carpet from damage, place 14. Never move the walking belt while the power

is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if  
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the  
treadmill is not working properly. (See  
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 25 if the tread-  
mill is not working properly.)  
4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois-  
ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a  
garage or covered patio, or near water.  
5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol  
products are used or where oxygen is being  
administered.  
15. Read, understand, and test the emergency  
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see  
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT on page 9).  
6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets  
away from the treadmill at all times.  
16. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-  
ing on the walking belt. Always hold the  
handrails while using the treadmill.  
7. The treadmill should not be used by persons  
weighing more than 300 pounds.  
17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.  
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid  
sudden jumps in speed.  
8. Never allow more than one person on the  
treadmill at a time.  
18. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors, including the user's move-  
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate  
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only  
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate  
trends in general.  
9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when  
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes  
that could become caught in the treadmill.  
Athletic support clothes are recommended for  
both men and women. Always wear athletic  
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,  
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.  
19. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it  
is running. Always remove the key, unplug the  
power cord, and switch the reset/off circuit  
breaker to the off position when the treadmill  
is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for  
the location of the reset/off circuit breaker.)  
10. When connecting the power cord (see page 9),  
plug the power cord into a surge suppressor  
(not included) and plug the surge suppressor  
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15  
or more amps. No other appliance should be on  
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.  
20. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the  
treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See  
ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO FOLD  
AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 23.) You  
must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to  
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.  
11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that  
meets all of the specifications described on  
page 9. To purchase a surge suppressor, see  
your local NordicTrack dealer or call the toll-  
free telephone number on the front cover of  
this manual and order part number 146148, or  
see your local electronics store.  
21. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by  
placing objects under the treadmill.

22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make  
sure that the storage latch is fully closed.  
26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the  
treadmill regularly.  
23. When using iFIT.com programs, an electronic  
“chirping” sound will alert you when the  
speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about  
to change. Always listen for the “chirp” and  
be prepared for speed and/or incline changes.  
In some instances, the speed and/or incline  
may change before the personal trainer de-  
scribes the change.  
27. Never insert or drop any object into any  
opening.  
28.  
DANGER:  
Always unplug the power  
cord immediately after use, before cleaning  
the treadmill, and before performing the main-  
tenance and adjustment procedures de-  
scribed in this manual. Never remove the  
motor hood unless instructed to do so by an  
authorized service representative. Servicing  
other than the procedures in this manual  
should be performed by an authorized service  
representative only.  
24. When using iFIT.com programs, you can man-  
ually override the speed and incline settings  
by pressing the speed and incline buttons.  
However, when the next “chirp” is heard, the  
speed and/or incline will change to the next  
settings of the CD or video program.  
29. The treadmill is intended for in-home use  
only. Do not use the treadmill in any commer-  
cial, rental, or institutional setting.  
25. Always remove iFIT.com CDs and videos from  
your CD player or VCR and disconnect your  
MP3 player when you are not using them.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This  
is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

ASSEMBLY  
Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not  
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.  
Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a  
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal  
condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off  
the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT  
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having  
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding  
plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,  
and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate  
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in  
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.  
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with  
GFCI-equipped outlets.  
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-  
performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-  
icone 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 is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,  
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-  
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that  
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be  
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole  
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly  
grounded outlet is not available.  
DANGER:  
Improper connection  
of the equipment-grounding conductor can  
result in an increased risk of electric shock.  
Check with a qualified electrician or service-  
man if you are in doubt as to whether the  
product is properly grounded. Do not modify  
the plug provided with the product—if it will  
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated  
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by  
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.  
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can  
result from weather conditions or from other appliances  
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of  
your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge  
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at  
the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see  
your local NordicTrack dealer or call the toll-free  
telephone number on the front cover of this man-  
ual and order part number 146148, or see your local  
electronics store.

Surge Suppressor  
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is  
UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-  
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a  
UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less  
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.  
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for  
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-  
toring light on the surge suppressor to indicate  
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a  
properly functioning surge suppressor could result  
in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If  
the control system is damaged, the walking belt  
may change speed, accelerate, or stop unexpect-  
edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.  
Lug  
Metal Screw  
The temporary adapter should be used only until a  
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed  
by a qualified electrician.  
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending  
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent  
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.  
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place  
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box  
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-  
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is  
grounded before using an adapter.  
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-  
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least  
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-

Heart rate program 1 will automatically adjust the speed  
and incline of the treadmill to keep your heart rate near a  
target heart rate that you select. Heart rate program 2  
will keep your heart rate within a preset range.  
Measure your heart rate if desired.  
See step 6 on page 12.  
Turn on the fan if desired.  
See step 7 on page 13.  
CAUTION:  
If you have heart prob-  
lems, or if you are over 60 years of age and  
have been inactive, do not use the heart rate  
programs. If you are taking medication regu-  
larly, consult your physician to find whether the  
medication will affect your exercise heart rate.  
When you are finished exercising, remove the  
key from the console.  
When the program ends, make sure that the in-  
cline of the treadmill is at the lowest setting.  
Next, remove the key from the console and put it in  
a safe place. Note: If the display remains lit  
after the key is removed, the console is in the  
“demo” mode. See page 22 and turn off the  
demo mode.

desired, press the Pulse  
+ and – buttons to change the target heart rate  
setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 28).  
Note: The same target heart rate setting will be  
programmed for the entire program.  
During both heart rate programs, the console will  
regularly compare your heart rate to the current  
target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too  
far below or above the target heart rate setting,  
the speed of the walking belt will automatically in-  
crease or decrease to bring your heart rate closer  
to the target heart rate setting. If the speed of the  
walking belt reaches 7.5 mph and your heart rate  
is still too far below the target heart rate setting,  
the incline of the treadmill will also increase.  
If heart rate program 2 is selected, the maxi-  
mum target heart rate setting of the program will  
flash in the Pulse/Speed display. If desired, press  
the Pulse + and – buttons to change the maximum  
target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTEN-  
SITY on page 28). Note: If the maximum target  
heart rate setting is changed, the intensity level of  
the entire program will change.  
If the speed or incline setting is too high or too low  
at any time during the program, you can adjust the  
setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However,  
each time the console compares your heart rate to  
the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or in-  
cline of the treadmill may automatically change to  
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.  
Press the Start button or the Speed increase  
button to start the program.  
5
If your pulse is not detected during the program,  
the letters “PLS” will flash in the Pulse/Speed dis-  
play and the speed and/or incline of the treadmill  
may automatically decrease. If this occurs, see the  
instructions included with the optional chest pulse  
sensor.  
A moment after the button is pressed, the tread-  
mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and  
incline settings of the program. Hold the handrails  
and begin walking.  
Heart rate program 1 is divided into 40 one-minute  
segments. The same target heart rate setting is  
programmed for all segments. Note: For a shorter  
workout, simply stop the program before it ends.  
Heart rate program 2 is divided into 30 one-minute  
segments. One target heart rate setting is pro-  
grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar-  
get heart rate setting may be programmed for two  
or more consecutive segments.  
To stop the program at any time, press the Stop  
button. The time will begin to flash in the  
Time/Pace display. To restart the program, press  
the Start button or the Speed increase button. The  
walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph. When the

THE INFORMATION MODE/DEMO MODE  
HOW TO ADJUST THE CUSHIONING SYSTEM  
The console features an information mode that keeps  
track of the total number of miles that the walking belt  
has moved and the total number of hours that the  
treadmill has been operated. The information mode  
also allows you to select miles or kilometers as the unit  
of measurement and to turn on and turn off the demo  
mode.  
The treadmill features a cushioning system that re-  
duces the impact as you walk or run on the treadmill.  
To increase the firmness of the walking platform, step  
off the treadmill and slide the cushion adjustors toward  
the front of the treadmill. To decrease the firmness,  
slide the cushion adjustors toward the back of the  
treadmill. Note: It may be helpful to lift on the plat-  
form as you slide the adjustors. Make sure that  
both adjustors are set at the same firmness level.  
The faster you run on the treadmill, or the more you  
weigh, the firmer the walking platform should be.  
To select the information mode, hold down the Stop  
button while inserting the key into the console.

play will show the total num-  
ber of miles (or kilometers)  
that the walking belt has

play, the console is in the “demo” mode. This mode is  
intended to be used only when a treadmill is displayed  
in a store. When the console is in the demo mode, the  
power cord can be plugged in, the key can be removed  
from the console, and the indicators in the display will  
automatically light in a preset sequence, although the  
buttons on the console will not operate. If a “d” appears

TROUBLESHOOTING  
Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and  
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, see the front cover of this manual.  
PROBLEM: The power does not turn on  
SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor  
is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 9). Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor  
that meets all of the specifications described on page 9. Important: The treadmill is not compatible  
with GFCI-equipped outlets.  
b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is inserted into the console.  
c. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the  
c
treadmill frame near the power cord. If the switch pro-  
trudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped. To  
reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes and  
then press the switch to the reset position.

Locate the Reed Switch (22) and the Magnet (18) on  
the left side of the Pulley (17). Turn the Pulley until the  
Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. Make sure  
that the gap between the Magnet and the Reed  
Switch is about 1/8”. If necessary, move the Reed  
Switch slightly using a slotted screwdriver. Reattach  
the Motor Hood (33), making sure that the 3/4” Screws  
(7) are inserted into the same holes from which they  
were removed. Run the treadmill for a few minutes to  
check for a correct speed reading.

3”–4”  
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-  
come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE  
POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both  
rear roller bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a turn. When  
the walking belt is properly tightened, you should be  
able to lift each edge of the walking belt 3 to 4 inches  
off the walking platform. Be careful to keep the walk-  
ing belt centered. Then, plug in the power cord, insert  
the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes.  
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.  
Rear Roller Bolts  
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, see the front cover of this manual.  
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  
a
UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking belt  
has shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to turn  
the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if the  
walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the left  
rear roller bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be  
careful not to overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the  
power cord, insert 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  
b
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using  
the allen wrench, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise,  
1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly tight-  
ened, you should be able to lift each edge of the  
walking belt 3 to 4 inches 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: 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 sys-  
tem.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
is to burn fat, adjust the speed and incline of the tread-  
mill until your heart rate is near the lowest number in  
your training zone.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this  
or any exercise program, consult your physi-  
cian. This is especially important for individu-  
als over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-  
existing health problems.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust the speed and incline  
of the treadmill until your heart rate is near the middle  
number in your training zone.  
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors, including your movement,  
may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings.  
The sensor is intended only as an exercise aid  
in determining heart rate trends in general.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise  
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for  
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand  
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the  
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,  
adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill until your  
heart rate is near the highest number in your training  
zone.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-  
ercise program. For more detailed exercise informa-  
tion, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
A Warm-up—Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes  
of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up in-  
creases your body temperature, heart rate and circula-  
tion in preparation for exercise.  
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase  
the intensity of your exercise until your pulse is in your  
training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the first few  
weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your  
pulse in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)  
Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise—never  
hold your breath.  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to  
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers  
above your age. The three numbers define your “train-  
ing zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended  
heart rates for fat burning; the higher number is the  
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
A Cool-down—Finish each workout with 5 to 10 min-  
utes of stretching to cool down. This will increase the  
flexibility of your muscles and will help prevent post-ex-  
ercise problems.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
Fat Burning  
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three  
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-  
tween workouts. After a few months, you may com-  
plete up to five workouts each week if desired. The key  
to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable  
part of your everyday life.  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively  
low intensity level for a sustained period of time.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for en-  
ergy. Only after the first few minutes does your body  
begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal
