Important Safety Instructions WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance. DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your Spirit 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. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS 14AWG OR BETTER, WITH ONLY ONE OUTLET ON THE END.
Important Electrical Information WARNING! NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. Large switching currents of the drive motor will trip GFCI type outlets, as will any appliance with a large motor. 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.
Important Operation Instructions NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results of any operational change you request from the computer. Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will obey the command gradually. NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household power supply that could damage treadmill components.

Operation of Your Treadmill Getting familiar with the control panel ET6 Console ET8 / ET10 Console 13 ET6 / ET8 / ET10
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: l l l l 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 its position when display is turned off.
To Turn Treadmill Off: (1) Display will automatically turn off (go to sleep) after 30 minutes (no key operations). The treadmill will draw very little current in sleep mode (about as much as your television when it is turned off). (2) Remove tether cord. (3) Turn of the main switch on the front of the treadmill, below the motor cover. Programmable Features The New Spirit treadmills offer 7 factory preset programs, 2 user defined programs and one Manual program.
STEP 5: The Speed window will now be blinking the preset top speed of the selected program. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust, then press enter. Each program has various speed changes as you progress through the profile; this allows you to limit the highest speed the program can reach. Now press the start button to begin your workout. User Programs: STEP 1: Select User 1 or User 2 via the PROGRAM key then press Enter.
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 (sold separately) 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).
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. The HRC program automatically changes the speed and elevation gradually to achieve the programmed target heart rate.
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. This should be done once a month to extend belt and bed life. Use water only - no cleaners or abrasives.
TREADBELT TRACKING ADJUSTMENT: The performance of your treadmill is dependent on the frame running on a reasonably level surface. If the frame is not level, the front and back roller cannot run parallel, and constant belt adjustment may be necessary. The treadmill is designed to keep the tread-belt reasonably centered while in use. It is normal for some belts to drift near one side while the belt is running with no one on it.
BELT / DECK LUBRICATION: 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. 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 from Spirit or directly from Lube-N-Walk here: http://www.jadfitness.
