Troubleshooting - York Fitness MARATHON DELUXE Owner's Manual

IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR TREADMILL, BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE PLEASE CHECK THAT ALL THE CABLES HAVE BEEN
CONNECTED CORRECTLY. LOOSE CABLES ARE VERY COMMON AND MANY PROBLEMS CAN BE SOLVED BY MAKING SURE THE CABLES ARE
PROPERLY CONNECTED.
The following table details the most common problems and how to fix them. If you still have a problem after going through
the troubleshooting guide please call your local YORK distributor for advice.
PROBLEM
TREADMILL WILL NOT START
RUNNING MAT SLIPPING
TREADMILL NOISY
INACCURATE PULSE RATE
MALFUNCTIONS AND ERRORS
The console will display information regarding operational faults with the treadmill. If your treadmill behaves in an unusual
way and seems to have developed a fault, turn it off at the electrical outlet and then back on again. This should clear the
treadmill of incidental errors and prepare it for normal operation. If there is still a problem call your local York distributor for
advice. Please find below some specific error messages you may see on this display:
• EER1 - means there is a problem with the speed function.
In the event of an electrical failure the treadmill will automatically shut off. To restart the treadmill:
1. Unplug the power cable from the treadmill.
2. Push in the safety switch.
3. Re-plug the power cable into the treadmill.
