• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.  
Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag  
or other container that may trap moisture.  
• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct  
sunlight for extended periods of time; do not expose  
it to temperatures above 122° Fahrenheit (50°  
Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit (-10° Celsius).  
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit  
when using or storing the heart rate monitor.

heart rate moni-  
tor should be under your clothing, tight against your  
skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or  
breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the logo on  
the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-side-up.  
• As you walk or run on the treadmill, position your-  
self near the center of the walking belt. For the  
console to display heart rate readings, the user  
must be within arm’s length of the console.  
Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches  
and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side.  
The electrode areas are the areas covered by shallow  
ridges. Using saline solution such as saliva or contact  
lens solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the  
sensor unit to a position against your chest.  
• The heart rate monitor is designed to work with  
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate  
reading problems may be caused by medical  
conditions such as premature ventricular contrac-  
tions (pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.  
HEART RATE MONITOR CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
• The operation of the heart rate monitor can be  
affected by magnetic interference caused by high  
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that  
this is a problem, try relocating the treadmill.  
• Thoroughly dry the heart rate monitor after each  
use. The heart rate monitor is activated when the  
electrode areas are wetted and the heart rate  
monitor is put on; the heart rate monitor shuts off  
when it is removed and the electrode areas are  
dried. If the heart rate monitor is not dried after each

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT  
THE PERFORMANT LUBETM WALKING BELT  
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord  
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a  
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge  
protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap-  
propriate outlet that is properly installed and  
grounded in accordance with all local codes and  
ordinances.  
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with  
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.  
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other  
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-  
form. They will deteriorate the walking belt and  
cause excessive wear.  
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 protector to a 2-pole recep-  
tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out-  
let is not available.  
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD  
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 in-  
stalled by a qualified electrician.  
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.  
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 re-  
sult from weather conditions or from other appliances  
being turned on or off.  
To decrease the pos-

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
Fat Burning  
WARNING:  
Before beginning  
To burn fat, you must exercise at a low intensity level  
for a sustained period of time. During the first few  
minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible  
carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few  
minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored  
fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust  
the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is  
near the low end of your training zone as you exercise.  
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.  
The heart rate monitor is not a medical de-  
vice. Various factors may affect the accuracy  
of heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor  
is intended only as an exercise aid in deter-  
mining 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 intensity of your exercise until your heart  
rate is near the middle of your training zone.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your ex-  
ercise program. For more detailed information about  
exercise, obtain a book or consult your physician.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or strengthen your car-  
diovascular 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. For effective exercise, your heart rate  
should be maintained at a level between 65% and 85%  
of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is  
known as your training zone. You can find your training  
zone in the table below. Training zones are listed ac-  
cording to age and physical condition.  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Each workout should include the following three impor-  
tant parts:  
A Warm-up—Warming up prepares the body for exer-  
cise by increasing circulation, delivering more oxygen  
to the muscles, and raising the body temperature.  
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching  
and light exercise to warm up.  
Training Zone (Beats/Min.)  
Training Zone Exercise—After warming up, increase  
the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is in  
your training zone for 20 to 60 minutes. (During the  
first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep  
your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20  
minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exer-  
cise—never hold your breath.

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 to prevent post-  
exercise problems.  
Exercise Frequency  
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.
