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

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 29 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

HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 12).

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 325 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 tread-

mill 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 10),

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 27.) 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 10. 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.

sure that the frame is held securely by the pin

on the latch knob.

player when you are not using them.

26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the

treadmill regularly.

23. When using iFIT 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

speed and/or incline will change to the next

settings of the 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 CDs and videos from your

CD player or VCR and disconnect your MP3

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-

cassettes are available separately). iFIT programs au-

tomatically control the speed and incline of the treadmill

as a personal trainer guides you through every step of

your workout; high-energy music provides added moti-

vation. To purchase and download iFIT MP3 pro-

grams, go to www.iFIT.com. To purchase iFIT CDs

or videocassettes, call the toll-free telephone num-

ber on the front cover of this manual.

The treadmill console offers an impressive array of

features designed to make your workouts more effec-

tive and enjoyable. When the manual mode of the con-

sole is selected, the speed and incline of the treadmill

can be changed with the touch of a button. As you ex-

ercise, the console will display continuous exercise

feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using

the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse

sensor (see page 26).

With the treadmill connected to your computer, you

can also go to www.iFIT.com and access iFIT pro-

grams directly from our Web site. See www.iFIT.com

for more information.

In addition, the console features eight preset pro-

grams—two Walk programs, two Jog programs, and

four Run programs. Each program automatically con-

trols the speed and incline of the treadmill as it guides

you through an effective workout. You can even create

Custom programs and save them for future use. The

console also offers two Heart Rate programs that con-

trol the speed and incline of the treadmill to help you

keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings.

Note: The Heart Rate programs require the use of the

optional chest pulse sensor.

To turn on the power, follow the steps on page 12. To

use the main menu of the console, see page 12. To

use the manual mode, see page 13. To use a preset

program, see page 16. To create and use a Custom

program, see pages 17 and 18. To use a Heart Rate

program, see page 19. To use an iFIT MP3, CD, or

video program, see page 23. To use an iFIT program

directly from our Web site, see page 25.

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of

the console, peel off the plastic. To prevent damage to

the walking platform, wear clean athletic shoes while

using the treadmill. The first time the treadmill is used,

observe the alignment of the walking belt, and center

the walking belt if necessary (see page 30).

The console also features iFIT interactive technology.

Having iFIT technology is like having a personal trainer

in your home. Using a stereo audio cable, you can con-

nect the treadmill to your portable stereo, home stereo,

computer, or VCR and play special iFIT MP3, CD, and

video programs (iFIT MP3 programs, CDs, and video-

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 10). Use only a single-outlet surge suppres-

sor that meets all of the specifications described on page 10. Important: The treadmill is not com-

patible 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

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.

mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-

come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE

POWER CORD. Using the hex key, 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

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

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,

then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings,

lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your

hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back

foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move

your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles ten-

dons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles ten-

dons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp

one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your

buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch
