Tread-belt does not stay centered Treadmill belt hesitates when walked/run on

The user may be walking while favoring or putting more weight on either the left or right foot. If this walking pattern is natural, track the belt slightly off-center to the side opposite from the belt movement. See General Maintenance section on Tread-belt Tension. Adjust as necessary.

Motor is not responsive after pressing start 1) If the belt moves, but stops after a short time and the display shows “LS”, run calibration (See procedure on next page).

2)If you press start and the belt never moves, then the display shows LS, contact service.

Treadmill will only achieve approximately 7 mph but shows higher speed on display

This indicates motor should be receiving power to

operate. Low AC voltage to treadmill. Do not use an extension cord. If an extension cord is required it should be as short as possible and heavy duty 16 gauge minimum. Low household voltage. Contact an electrician or your Spirit dealer. A minimum of 110 volt AC current is required.
