Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your treadmill.

• Cleaning: Wipe down the console and other surfaces with a damp cloth after each use. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

• Running Belt Tension: The running belt should be properly tensioned. If the belt slips during use, it may need tightening. Use the provided Allen wrench to adjust the rear roller bolts in small increments (quarter turns) until the slipping stops.
• Running Belt Alignment: If the belt drifts to one side, adjust the corresponding rear roller bolt. If it drifts right, tighten the right bolt; if it drifts left, tighten the left bolt. Make small adjustments and test.
• Storage: The Kettler Berlin S1 Treadmill can be folded for storage. Lift the running deck until it locks into the upright position. Ensure it is securely latched before moving.
