Step 18: Calibration (TC3000 and TC5000 only)

Note: During calibration, observe the walking belt alignment. Belts do not need to be perfectly centered, but if they are far enough from center to cause a scraping sound, follow the belt alignment instructions in the Owner’s Manual.

Failure to calibrate your machine prior to use could result in machine failure and could cause injury.

During the entire calibration process, stand on the side foot support platforms or rubber mat only. Do not stand on the walking belts during this entire process.

Note: Re-calibration is also neccessary in the event of a power outage or if a component like a belt or motor has been replaced.

18-1Plug the power cord into the the wall outlet.

18-2Turn on the Main Power Switch (See Figure 18-1).

18-3Stand on the side foot support platforms or rubber floor mat. Do NOT stand on the belts.

18-4Hold down the POWER and SLOWER buttons. Insert the Safety Key.

Note: If the Safety Key is not fully inserted into the safety

keyhole, the TreadClimber® will not operate.

18-5Release the POWER and SLOWER buttons. The TIME display will read “CAL”, PrSS”,”Strt”.

18-6Press the START/STOP button to start calibration.

Note: The belts will start and stop and the displays will show various numbers that relate to the calibration process. Do NOT interrupt calibration.

18-7Calibration will take about 3 minutes. When calibration has finished “CAL” “PASS” will show in the TIME display.

18-8Remove and re-insert the Safety Key to clear the display.

When the Bowflex® TreadClimber® exercise machine has completed calibration, you may begin your workout.

Note: During calibration the 30 meter LED on the TC5000 signifies the belt speed sensor, 305 meters LED is the step sensor. Some models of the TC 3000 will show the step sensor in the DISTANCE window as a heart and the speed sensor in the SPEED window as a heart.
