Important Safety Instructions WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance. DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your Sole treadmill from the electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work. WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the treadmill on a flat level surface with access to a 120-volt, 20-amp grounded outlet.
Important Electrical Information WARNING! NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. Route the power cord away from any moving part of the treadmill including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels. NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your treadmill may be affected.
NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. Sole treadmills start with at a very low speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply standing on the belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate the unit.
Operation of Your Treadmill Getting familiar with the control panel TT8 Console Getting Started: Power the treadmill on by plugging it into an appropriate wall outlet, then turn on the power switch located at the front of the treadmill below the motor hood. Ensure that the safety key is installed, as the treadmill will not power on without it.
Quick-Start Operation: STEP 1: Press and release the Start key to wake display up (if not already on). Note: Installing the tether key will also wake up the console. STEP 2: Press and release the Start key to begin belt movement, at .5 mph, then adjust to the desired speed using the Fast / Slow keys (console or hand rail).
Dot Matrix Center Display (Manual Operation) Twenty rows of Red dots (8 high) indicate each segment of a workout. The dots are only to show an approximate level (speed/incline) of effort. They do not necessarily indicate a specific value - only an approximate percent to compare levels of intensity.
Programmable Features The New Sole's Series offers 7 factory preset programs, 2 user defined programs and one Manual program. Each preset program has a maximum speed level that is displayed when a desired workout is chosen. The maximum speed that the particular program will achieve will be displayed in the Speed window.
User Programs: STEP 1: Select User 1 or User 2 via the PROGRAM key then press Enter. Note that the dot matrix display portion will have a single row of dots at the bottom (Unless there is a previously stored program).
Consult your physician before participating in any exercise program. With all Sole Heart Rate Control treadmills, you may use the heart rate monitor feature without using the Heart Rate Control program. This function can be used during manual mode or during any of the nine different programs.
2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. 3. Position the transmitter with the Sole logo centered in the middle of your body facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center). Attach the final end of the elastic strap by inserting the round end and, using the locking parts, secure the transmitter and strap around your chest.
Heart Rate Control How the Heart Rate Control Program Works: Heart Rate Control (HRC) uses your treadmill's speed and incline systems to adjust your heart rate. Increases and decreases in elevation affect heart rate much more efficiently than changes in speed alone.
General Maintenance Belt and Bed - Your treadmill uses a very high-efficient low-friction bed. Performance is maximized when the bed is kept as clean as possible. Use a soft, damp cloth or paper towel to wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge.
