b. If the walking belt is overtightened, treadmill perfor-
mance may decrease and the walking belt may be-
come damaged. Remove the key and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. Using the allen wrench, turn both
rear roller adjustment bolts counterclockwise, 1/4 of a
turn. When the walking belt is properly tightened, you
should be able to lift each side of the walking belt 5 to
8 cm (2 to 3 in.) off the walking platform. Be careful to
keep the walking belt centred. Plug in the power cord,
insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
c. If the walking belt still slows when walked on, call our Customer Service Department.
PROBLEM: The walking belt is off-centre or slips when walked on
SOLUTION: a. If the walking belt is off-centre, first remove the key
and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. If the walking
belt has shifted to the left, use the allen wrench to
turn the left rear roller bolt clockwise 1/2 of a turn; if
the walking belt has shifted to the right, turn the
bolt counterclockwise 1/2 of a turn. Be careful not to
overtighten the walking belt. Plug in the power cord,
insert the key and run the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is centred.
b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first remove
the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD. Using
the allen wrench, turn both rear roller bolts clockwise,
1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly tight-
ened, you should be able to lift each side of the walk-
ing belt 5 to 8 cm (2 to 3 in.) off the walking platform.
Be careful to keep the walking belt centred. Plug in
the power cord, insert the key and carefully walk on
the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the walk-
ing belt is properly tightened.
PROBLEM: The heart rate monitor does not function properly
SOLUTION: a. If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, refer to CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROU-
BLESHOOTING on page 10.
b. If the heart rate monitor still does not function properly, the battery
should be replaced. To replace the battery, locate the battery cover
on the back of the sensor unit. Insert a coin into the slot in the cover
and turn the cover counterclockwise to the "open" position. Remove
the cover. Next, remove the old battery from the sensor unit. Insert
a new CR 2032 battery, making sure that the writing is on top.
Make sure that the rubber gasket is in place in the sensor unit.
Reattach the battery cover and turn it to the closed position.
