    BEFORE YOU BEGIN Thank you for selecting the revolutionary PROFORM 540 treadmill. The 540 treadmill combines advanced technology with innovative design to help you get the most from your exercise program in the convenience and privacy of your home. And when you’re not exer- cising, the unique 540 treadmill can be folded up, re- quiring less than half the floor space of other treadmills.
