IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking plat- form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear. HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD 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 1-800-806- 3651 and order part number 146148. 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 monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi- cate 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 or stop unexpect- edly, which may 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 least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec- 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. 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. 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. 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 installed by a qualified electrician. 1 2 Grounded Outlet Box Grounded Outlet Box Grounding Plug Surge Suppressor Surge Suppressor Grounding Pin Adapter Lug Metal Screw Grounded Outlet Grounding Pin 8 9 FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE The advanced console offers an impressive array of features designed to help you get the most from your exercise.

See step 6 on page 13. 6 5 4 3 2 1 Current Segment 15 HOW TO USE CUSTOM PROGRAMS Insert the key fully into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10. Select one of the custom programs. When the key is inserted, the manual mode will be selected. To select a custom program, press the Select Program button repeatedly until the Learn 1 or Learn 2 indicator lights. For about six seconds after a program is selected, the Incline/Heart Rate display will flash the maxi- mum incline setting for the program, and the Speed display will flash the maximum speed set- ting for the program. The Time/Pace display will show how long the program will last. The program display will show the first ten speed settings for the program. Note: If only three columns of in- dicators are lit in the program display, refer to HOW TO CREATE A CUSTOM PROGRAM on page 14. Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program. A moment after the button is pressed, the walking belt will begin to move. Hold the handrails and begin walking. Each program is divided into several one-minute segments. One speed setting and one incline set- ting are programmed for each segment. The speed setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the pro- gram display. (The incline settings are not shown in the program display.) The speed settings for the next sev- eral segments will be shown in the columns to the right. When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a tone will sound. If the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the Speed/Pace dis- play and/or the Incline/Heart Rate display will flash to alert you, and three tones will sound. When the first segment is completed, all speed settings will move one column to the left . The speed setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the treadmill will automatically adjust to the speed and incline settings for the second seg- ment. The program will continue until the speed setting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column and no time remains. The walk- ing belt will then slow to a stop. If desired, you can redefine the program while using it. To change the speed or incline setting for the current segment, simply press the Speed or Incline buttons. When the current segment is com- pleted, the new setting will be saved in memory. To increase the length of the program, first wait until the program is completed. Then, press the Start but- ton and program speed and incline settings for as many additional segments as desired. Note: While you are adding segments to the program, the speed settings in the program display will not move to the left. Instead, each time a segment is completed, the flashing Current Segment column will move one column to the right. If the Current Segment column reaches the right side of the pro- gram display, when the current segment is com- pleted, all columns of indicators in the program display will move three columns to the left. When you have added as many segments as desired, press the Stop button twice. To decrease the length of the program, press the Stop button twice at any time before the program is completed. To stop the program temporarily, press the Stop button. All displays will pause and the Time/Pace display will begin to flash. To restart the program, press the Start button or the Speed + button. To end the program, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key. Follow your progress with the displays. See step 5 on page 11. Measure your heart rate if desired.

Note: You must wear the optional chest pulse sen- sor (see page 23) to use a heart rate program. Put on the chest pulse sensor. See the instructions included with the optional chest pulse sensor. Insert the key fully into the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 10. Select a heart rate program. When the key is inserted, the man- ual mode will be selected. To se- lect a heart rate program, press the Select Program button repeatedly the HR1 or HR2 indi- cator lights. During heart rate programs, the program display will show a graphic that rep- resents your heart rate. Each time a heartbeat is detected, an additional peak will appear. Enter your age. When a heart rate pro- gram is selected, the let- ters “AGE” and the cur- rent age setting will begin to flash in the Speed display. You must enter your age to use a heart rate program. If you have already entered your age, press the Start button (pressing the Start button at this time will not start the program). If you have not entered your age, press the Age/Weight Set buttons until your age is shown. Then, press the Start button. Your age will then be saved in memory. Adjust the maximum speed limit for the program. After you have entered your age, the letters “SPd” (speed) and the maximum speed limit for the program will flash in the Speed display. If de- sired, change the maximum speed limit by press- ing the 1-step Speed buttons. Press the Start button or the Speed + button to start the program. A moment after the button is pressed, the tread- mill will automatically adjust to the first speed and incline settings for the program. Hold the handrails and begin walking. Each heart rate program is divided into 20 one- minute segments. (The Time/Pace display will show both the time remaining in the program and the time remaining in the current segment of the program.) One target heart rate setting is pro- grammed for each segment. (The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecu- tive segments.) 6 5 4 3 2 1 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. 17 During the program, 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 treadmill will automatically increase or de- crease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If the speed reaches the maxi- mum speed limit for the program (see step 5 on page 16) and your heart rate is still too far below the current target heart rate setting, the incline of the treadmill will also increase to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. The program will continue until no time remains in the program. The walking belt will then slow to a stop. If the current speed or incline setting is too high or too low, you can adjust the setting with the Speed or Incline buttons. However, each time the con- sole compares your heart rate to the current target heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may automatically change to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If your pulse is not detected during the program, the letters “PLS” will flash in the Incline/Heart Rate display and the speed and incline of the treadmill may automatically decrease until your pulse is de- tected. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor. To stop the program at any time, press the Stop button. Heart rate programs should not be stopped temporarily and then restarted. To use a heart rate program again, reselect the program and start it at the beginning. Follow your progress with the displays. See step 5 on page 11. When the program is completed, remove the key from the console.

For more detailed exercise informa- tion, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. EXERCISE INTENSITY 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. 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. To measure your heart rate during exercise, use the pulse sensor. If your heart rate is too high or too low, adjust the speed and incline of the treadmill. Fat Burning 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 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. 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. 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. WORKOUT GUIDELINES 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. 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 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. 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. 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. 29 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 Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back. 2. Hamstring Stretch Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot to- ward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. 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 tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons 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 Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles. 1 2 3 4 5 PART LIST—Model No. NTL11920 R1102B To locate the parts listed below, refer to the EXPLODED DRAWING attached in the center of this manual.
