HANDLEBAR AND METER

Connect the wire coming out of the left handlebar with the connector in the meter and push the connected wire inside the handlebar. NOTE! Do not remove the screws on the sliders. Place the handlebar/meter unit on the handrails so that the sliders located at the sides of the handlebars fit the handrail grooves. Attach 2 screws (E) to both slide parts. Fasten all screws of the sliders. Fasten the handrail bolts. Remove the protective film from the display.

Move the equipment by wheeling it on the transportation wheels (see Moving and Storage).

SAFETY KEY

The treadmill cannot be used if the key is not properly installed on the meter; if the key is removed from its place, the treadmill will immediately stop. Insert the safety key into the key holder at the left side of the meter. Ensure that the clip of the safety key is properly attached to your clothing; as the cord tightens, make sure the clip does not detach itself from your clothing before the safety key disconnects from the user interface. Always hold the handrail for support when getting on or off the treadmill and when changing the speed during exercise. Do not jump off the running belt while it is moving!

POWER CORD AND GROUNDING

INSTRUCTIONS

Plug the socket end of the power cord into the treadmill at the left front corner. Before connecting the device to a power source, make sure that local voltage matches that indicated on the type plate. Turn on the power using the switch next to the socket on the treadmill. This treadmill must be grounded.

If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce

the risk of electrical shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounded conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes

and ordinances. Do not use extension cables when connecting the equipment to the power source.

DANGER! Improper connection of the equipment- grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman, if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

BASICS ON EXERCISING

Before training on a motor-driven treadmill, you should familiarise yourself with its functions and operation.

Working out with this equipment is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness.

Aerobic exercise should above all be pleasant. You should perspire, but your heart rate should stay at a comfortable level. This will allow for a longer training session. Three 30 to 60 minute sessions a week is recommended, depending on your goals, fitness level and schedule.

If you prefer a walking exercise, you can increase the versatility and effort level of your workout by adjusting the elevation. For a more versatile walking exercise, you

can also use light dumbbells to work your arm muscles. Remember to pay attention to safety concerns, such as

maintaining your balance.
