b. If the walking belt slips when walked on, first re-
move the key and UNPLUG THE POWER CORD.
Using the hex key, turn both rear roller bolts clock-
wise, 1/4 of a turn. When the walking belt is correctly
tightened, you should be able to lift each edge of the
walking belt 3 to 4 in. (8 to 10 cm) off the walking
platform. Be careful to keep the walking belt cen-
tered. Then, plug in the power cord, insert the key,
and carefully walk on the treadmill for a few minutes.
Repeat until the walking belt is properly tightened.
PROBLEM: The console displays remain lit when you remove the key from the console
SOLUTION: a. The console features a display demo mode, designed to be used if the treadmill is displayed in a
store. If the displays remain lit when you remove the key, the demo mode is turned on. To turn off
the demo mode, hold down the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays are still lit, see THE
INFORMATION MODE on page 21 to turn off the demo mode.
PROBLEM: Television reception is poor
SOLUTION: a. For the television to operate properly, good reception is necessary. If you are using an antenna,
make sure that it is properly connected and adjusted for optimal reception. (See HOW TO CON-
NECT AN ANTENNA on page 10.)
b. Check for the problems listed below and follow the applicable instructions.
• Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)—Usually
this is caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drifts, or
other electric appliances. Try changing the position of the treadmill or other electric appliances to
correct the problem.
• Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path
and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects. Change the direction or posi-
tion of the antenna to improve reception.
• Blue Screen—If the treadmill is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is
weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue screen may appear. If the signal is weak, it may
be necessary to install an external antenna to improve the picture.
Note: If one of these symptoms appears when the cable from a CATV company is connected, the
symptom may be caused by the local company broadcast.
