MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING

Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please call our Customer Service Department toll- free at 1-800-999-3756, Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. until 6 p.m. Mountain Time (excluding holidays).

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge protector, and that the surge protector is plugged into a properly grounded outlet. (See HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 7.) Use only a UL-listed surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less in length.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the con- sole. (See step 1 on page 8.)

c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill near the power cord. If the switch protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.

SOLUTION: a. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see 1. c. above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.

b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in.

c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key fully into the console. (See step 1 on page 8.)

d. If the treadmill still will not run, please call our Customer Service Department, toll-free.

PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly

SOLUTION: a. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Next, remove the screws from the hood and carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch (97) and the Magnet (9) on the left side of the Pulley (10). Turn the Pulley until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. Check the gap between the

Magnet and the Reed Switch—it should be about 1/8”. If necessary, loosen the Screw (43) and move the Reed Switch slightly. Retighten the Screw.

Reattach the hood and run the treadmill for a few min- utes to check for a correct speed reading.
