Lift the treadmill running deck until it is secured by the locking telescoping tube assembly in center back of base.
Operation of Your Treadmill Getting familiar with the control panel XT385 Console XT485 Console 14 XT385/XT485
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. When the power is turned on, all the lights on the display will light for a short time. Then the Time and Distance windows will display Odometer readings for a short time.
Incline Feature: Incline may be adjusted anytime after belt movement. Press and hold the Adjust ▲ ▼ keys (console or hand rail) to achieve desired level of effort. You may also choose a more rapid increase / decrease by selecting desired key, 2 through 12, on left hand side of console (incline). The display will indicate incline percent as adjustments are made. Incline will remain in it’s position when display is turned off.
Auto-Pilot feature This unique feature allows the user to instantly enter the Heart Rate Control mode at any time with the press of a button. The HR2 program button also doubles as the Auto-Pilot button. During any program the user may press the Auto-Pilot button to enter the HRC program. Your current heart rate (the heart rate you are at when you press Auto-Pilot) will be maintained automatically by the Auto-Pilot program.
STEP 3: The Calorie window will now be blinking a value, indicating your Body Weight. Entering the correct body weight will affect the calorie count. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust, then press enter. A note about the Calorie display: No exercise machine can give you an exact calorie count because there are too many factors which determine exact calorie burn for a particular person. Even if someone is the exact same body weight, age and height, their calorie burn may be very different than yours.
Target Heart Rate ● The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their choice of exercise intensity is either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Using a Heart Rate Transmitter How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 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 Polar logo centered in the middle of your body facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
Rate of Perceived Exertion Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout. If you listen to your body, it will tell you all of these things.
Heart Rate Control Heart rate Auto-Pilot feature This unique feature allows the user to instantly enter the Heart Rate Control mode at any time with the press of a button. The HR2 program button also doubles as the Auto-Pilot button. During any program the user may press the Auto-Pilot button to enter the HRC program. Your current heart rate (the heart rate you are at when you press Auto-Pilot) will be maintained automatically by the Auto-Pilot program.
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, wipe the edge of the belt and the area between the belt edge and the frame. Also reach as far as practical directly under the belt edge. This should be done once a month to extend belt and bed life. A mild soap and water solution along with a nylon scrub brush will clean the top of the textured belt.
TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT: The treadmill is designed so that the tread-belt remains reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while in use, depending on a user’s gait and if they favor one leg. But if during use the belt continues to move toward one side, adjustments are necessary. TO SET TREAD-BELT TRACKING: (A 6 mm Allen wrench is provided for this adjustment). Make tracking adjustments on the left side bolt. Set belt speed at 3 mph.
Belt/deck lubrication procedure: Do not lubricate with other than Spirit approved lubricant. Your treadmill comes with one tube of lubricant and extra tubes can be ordered directly from Spirit or your authorized Spirit dealer. There are commercially available lube kits, but the only one currently approved by Spirit is Lube-N-Walk. These kits come with an application wand that makes applying the lubrication easier. The kits can be purchased directly from Lube-N-Walk here: http://www.jadfitness.com/.
