OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

THE PRE-LUBRICATED WALKING BELT

The treadmill features a walking belt coated with high-performance lubricant. IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

The treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in a home's power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of the treadmill being damaged, always use a surge suppressor with the treadmill (see drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see a local GOLD'S GYM dealer or call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see a local electronics store.

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indicate whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change speed, accelerate or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

Illustration 1: Diagram of a grounded outlet box with a surge suppressor and grounding pin. Illustration 2: Diagram of a grounded outlet box with an adapter, surge suppressor, and metal screw for temporary grounding.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor, and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. IMPORTANT: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician.

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

   Illustration: Console display showing 'TIME', 'Track', 'CALS' (e.g., 19:58, 107).

   The left side of the display will show the elapsed time, the distance that has been walked or run, and the incline level of the treadmill. Press the Display button to view the desired workout information. Note: When a heart rate, weight loss, or classic workout is selected, the display will show the time remaining in the workout instead of the elapsed time.

   Illustration: Console display showing 'TIME', 'INCLINE' (e.g., 19:58, 2.5).

   The right side of the display will show the approximate number of calories burned, the speed of the walking belt, and pace in minutes per mile. The right side of the display will also show heart rate when using the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

   Illustration: Console display showing 'CALS', 'SPEED' (e.g., 8107, 4.0).

   To reset the display, press the Stop button, remove the key, and then reinsert the key.

7. Measure heart rate if desired.

   Note:

   If both the handgrip pulse sensor and the optional chest pulse sensor are used at the same time, the console will not display heart rate accurately. For information on the optional chest pulse sensor, see page 20.

   Before using the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the sheets of clear plastic from the metal contacts. In addition, make sure hands are clean.

   Illustration: Diagram showing hand placement on metal contacts for pulse sensing.

   To measure heart rate, stand on the foot rails and place hands on the metal contacts—avoid moving hands. When pulse is detected, the heart symbol in the display will begin to flash each time the heart beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds.

8. Turn on the fan if desired.

   The fan features high and low speed settings. Press the fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan. Note: If the fan is on when the walking belt is stopped, the fan will turn off automatically after a few minutes.

9. When finished exercising, remove the key from the console.

   Step onto the foot rails, press the Stop button, and adjust the incline of the treadmill to the lowest setting. The incline must be at the lowest setting or damage to the treadmill may occur when folding it to the storage position. Next, remove the key from the console and put it in a secure place.

   When finished using the treadmill, switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the "off" position and unplug the power cord. IMPORTANT: If this is not done, the treadmill's electrical components may wear prematurely.

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT

1. Put on the optional chest pulse sensor.

   For best results, wear the optional chest pulse sensor to use a heart rate workout. See page 20 for information on the optional chest pulse sensor.

2. Insert the key into the console.

   See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 14.

3. Select one of the heart rate workouts.

   To select one of the two heart rate workouts, press the Heart Rate Control button repeatedly until the desired workout appears in the display.

   As each heart rate workout is selected, the maximum incline setting and the duration of the workout will flash in the display for a few seconds. A profile of the target heart rate settings of the workout will scroll across the matrix.

4. Enter maximum target heart rate if desired.

   Press the Enter button. Then press the increase and decrease buttons next to the display to change the maximum target heart rate (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 25). Note: If the maximum target heart rate setting is changed, the intensity level of the entire workout will change.

5. Press the Start button or the Speed increase button to start the workout.

   A moment after the button is pressed, the treadmill will automatically adjust to the first target heart rate setting for the workout. Hold the handrails and begin walking.

   Each workout is divided into one-minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.

   During each segment of the workout, the console will compare heart rate to the target heart rate setting for that segment. If heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the speed and/or incline will automatically increase or decrease to bring heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Each time the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change, the speed and/or incline setting will flash in the display to alert users.

   The workout will continue in this way until the last segment of the profile flashes in the display and the last segment ends. The walking belt will then slow to a stop.

   If the speed and/or incline settings are too high or too low, users can change the intensity level of the workout at any time by pressing the Speed and Incline buttons; however, when the console compares heart rate to the target heart rate for the current segment, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may change to bring heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

   To stop the workout at any time, press the Stop button. To restart the workout, press the Start button. The walking belt will begin to move at 1 mph; however, when the console compares heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment, the speed and/or incline of the treadmill may change to bring heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

6. Follow progress with the display.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

These guidelines will help users plan an exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult a physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether the goal is to burn fat or to strengthen the cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. Heart rate can be used as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

Table: Recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise, with age ranges (20-80) and corresponding heart rate zones. Example values: 165 155 145 140 130 125 115 ❤️, 145 138 130 125 118 110 103 ❤️, 125 120 115 110 105 95 90 ❤️ for ages 20 30 40 50 60 70 80.

To find the proper intensity level, find age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above age define the "training zone." The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat

To burn fat effectively, exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, the body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does the body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If the goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of exercise until heart rate is near the lowest number in the training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with heart rate near the middle number in the training zone.

Aerobic Exercise

If the goal is to strengthen the cardiovascular system, perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of exercise until heart rate is near the highest number in the training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A warm-up increases body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with heart rate in the training zone. (During the first few weeks of an exercise program, do not keep heart rate in the training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply while exercising—never hold breath.

Cooling down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, users may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of everyday life.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly while stretching—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

   Stand with knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from hips. Allow back and shoulders to relax while reaching down toward toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

   Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward the body and rest it against the inner thigh of the extended leg. Reach toward toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

   With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place hands against a wall. Keep the back leg straight and the back foot flat on the floor. Bend the front leg, lean forward and move hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend the back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

   With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with the other hand. Bring the heel as close to buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

   Sit with the soles of feet together and knees outward. Pull feet toward the groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

Illustration: Diagrams demonstrating five suggested stretches: 1. Toe Touch Stretch, 2. Hamstring Stretch, 3. Calf/Achilles Stretch, 4. Quadriceps Stretch, 5. Inner Thigh Stretch.
