CAUTION: If this is the first time you have operated this treadmill, DO NOT STAND on the running belt until you become familiar its operation.

Before using your treadmill, we recommend that you read these instructions and go through a preliminary demonstration of the treadmill. Then, you will be familiar with the treadmill when you begin your workout.

When using the treadmill, follow these general guidelines:

At the beginning of a workout, take several minutes to bring your heart rate into your training zone, which is shown in Diagram 14 later in this manual.

After your workout, walk slowly for several minutes to cool down your body and lower your heart rate.

Using the clip provided, attach the magnetic safety key to your clothing before each workout. Then, if you encounter difficulties or want to end your workout, you can easily stop the running belt by pulling on the cord.

Gently stretch your lower body and back before and after a workout to help prevent stiffness or soreness.
