OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENTTHE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply sil-icone spray or other substances to the walkingbelt or the walking platform. Such substances willdeteriorate the walking belt and cause excessivewear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticatedelectronic equipment, can be seriously damaged bysudden voltage changes in your homeʼs power.Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference canresult from weather conditions or from other appliancesbeing turned on or off. To decrease the possibility ofyour treadmill being damaged, always use a surgesuppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 atthe right). To purchase a surge suppressor, seeyour local NordicTrack dealer or call the telephonenumber on the front cover of this manual and orderpart number 146148, or see your local electronicsstore.

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that isUL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have aUL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or lessand a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-toring light on the surge suppressor to indicatewhether it is functioning properly. Failure to use aproperly functioning surge suppressor could resultin damage to the control system of the treadmill. Ifthe control system is damaged, the walking beltmay slow, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, whichmay result in a fall and serious injury.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-tion or break down, grounding provides a path of leastresistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-

tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord havingan equipment-grounding conductor and a groundingplug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriateoutlet that is properly installed and grounded inaccordance with all local codes and ordinances.IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compatible withGFCI-equipped outlets.

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 thatlooks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may beused to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-polereceptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properlygrounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until aproperly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installedby a qualified electrician.

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extendingfrom the adapter must be connected to a permanentground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in placeby a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet boxcovers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-trician to determine if the outlet box cover isgrounded before using an adapter.

DANGER: Improper connectionof the equipment-grounding conductor canresult in an increased risk of electric shock.Check with a qualified electrician or service-man if you are in doubt as to whether theproduct is properly grounded. Do not modifythe plug provided with the product—if it willnot fit the outlet, have a proper outletinstalled by a qualified electrician.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exerciseprogram. For detailed exercise information, obtain areputable book or consult your physician. Remember,proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential forsuccessful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-sity is the key to achieving results. You can use yourheart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.The chart below shows recommended heart rates forfat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at thebottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-est ten years). The three numbers listed above yourage define your “training zone.” The lowest number isthe heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is theheart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highestnumber is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period oftime. During the first few minutes of exercise, yourbody uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only afterthe first few minutes of exercise does your body beginto use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is toburn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until yourheart rate is near the lowest number in your trainingzone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with yourheart rate near the middle number in your trainingzone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exer-cise, which is activity that requires large amounts ofoxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic ex-ercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until yourheart rate is near the highest number in your trainingzone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretchingand light exercise. A warm-up increases your bodytemperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparationfor exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (Duringthe first few weeks of your exercise program, do notkeep your heart rate in your training zone for longerthan 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as youexercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your musclesand helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete threeworkouts each week, with at least one day of rest be-tween workouts. After a few months of regular exer-cise, you may complete up to five workouts eachweek, if desired. Remember, the key to success is tomake exercise a regular and enjoyable part of youreveryday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning anyexercise program, consult your physician.This is especially important for persons overage 35 or persons with pre-existing healthproblems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.Various factors may affect the accuracy ofheart rate readings. The pulse sensor is in-tended only as an exercise aid in determiningheart rate trends in general.
