Problem

When I try to save a workout on the USB stick I receive the following message: UNABLE TO SAVE SEE MANUAL. Note: Applies to Track Console only.

The wireless heart rate is not working.

A heart rate reading is initially detected and functioning normally but then is lost.

“OFF” is displayed in the incline window.

“Immobilized” is displayed in window.

iPod is not recognized. Note: Applies to Track Console only.

iPod is not charging while in Energy Saver mode. Note: Applies to Track Console only.

”Low Battery” message is displayed on the console. Note: Applies to Track Console only.

Cause / Solution

The console may not have recognized the USB stick. Try unplugging the USB stick and plugging it back in.

The USB stick may be full.

The USB stick may not be compatible with the product.

Try using a different USB stick.

Potential reasons for the wireless heart rate not to work properly include:

1.The wireless heart rate is turned OFF in the Settings Menu. Enter the Settings Menu and verify that WIRELESS HR is turned ON.

2.There is poor contact between the telemetry heart rate strap and the skin. Refer to Heart Rate Telemetry Strap for details.

3.There is electrical interference from electrical appliances with the telemetry heart rate strap from fluorescent lights, kitchen appliances, etc. Move the treadmill to a different location or move electrical appliances away from the treadmill.

4.The battery in the Heart Rate Telemetry Strap needs to be replaced. The battery is a CR2032 (3V).

Use of personal electronic devices, such as cell phones and portable mp3 players, causes external noise interference.

Equipment is in close proximity to other sources of noise such as audio/ video equipment, fans, two way radios, and high voltage/high current power line

Remove the source of noise or reposition the exercise equipment. This message relates to a problem with the Incline system.

If the incline has been repeatedly moved up and down in a manual program, the lift motor may have activated a thermal protection device.

Simply let the treadmill sit for 30 minutes and cycle power.

Recalibrate the treadmill following the instructions in Section 3.6 Calibration.

The treadmill has been immobilized through software. Press the SPEED DOWN ARROW and STOP on the Activity Zone to exit this state.

This is displayed if your version of the iPod Player is not supported by the treadmill.

It may also be displayed if the connector on the treadmill or iPod is damaged.

Your iPod will not charge if the treadmill enters Energy Saver mode. This is normal.

The console has an internal battery that keeps the real time clock functioning if the treadmill is unplugged. This real time clock is only needed if you use the Life Fitness ”Virtual Trainer” website. You do not need to replace the battery if you do not use the website. Contact Customer Service for guidance on how to change the battery. The battery is a CR1632 (3V).
