7 7 Safety devices and warnings A - Snap-off Safety Stop: located under the control panel, it stops the equipment immediately should a hazardous situation arise. A A cord connects the switch to a clamp that must be attached to the user’s clothing. As a result, if the user moves too far from the control panel, the switch pops out and stops the equipment without having to touch the controls. To reset all the equipment’s functions, return the switch to its position, then touch the screen anywhere.
7 B - Circuit breaker: protects the equipment’s electrical parts. When the current reaches an excessive value, the protection device opens, thus preventing damage to the electronics inside. D C - Main switch: turns the equipment’s power on and off. D - Additional switch: if the main switch is in the on position, this switch turns the equipment on.
8 8 Place of installation To guarantee safe, comfortable and effective use of the equipment, the place of installation must comply with certain specific requirements; in particular, before choosing where to install the equipment it is recommended to check the following: - the temperature is between +10°C and +25°C; - enough air is circulating to keep humidity during exercise to between 20% and 90%; - the lighting is good enough to make the area safe and relaxing place to exercise in; - there is a safety ar
9 9 Moving the equipment The equipment has two fixed front wheels. To move the equipment, lift it up slightly, as shown in the illustration, and push it forwards and backwards. Given the weight of the equipment, we recommend that more than one person be involved in lifting it. If flooring conditions prevent use of the wheels, normal moving procedures must be employed. ! Warnings Move the equipment with great care to avoid it tipping over.
10 10 Levelling The equipment is levelled by adjusting the rear foot on the side shown in the illustration. Loosen the locknut (B). Unscrew or screw the foot (A) until the frame is stable. After adjusting tighten the locknuts (B).
11 11 Electrical connection Before connecting the equipment to the mains power supply, ensure that the electrical installation complies to binding regulations. Check the mains power supply specifications on the equipment identity label. ! Warnings The wall socket must be located in a place where the plugging and unplugging can be done easily and safely. When plugging in, the main switch on the equipment must be in the 0 position (i.e. the equipment must be switched off).
11 The product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. ! DANGER The power supply socket must be grounded .
12 12 Connection to another device Connect the aerial cable to the equipment (A) and to the wall socket. Use an RF coaxial cable for the connection with an F type of connector for the equipment. The wall socket of the aerial cable must be positioned so that the plug can be easily inserted and removed. Each Visio can be connected to many compatible audio/video equipment (e.g.
13 13 Maintenance ! Warnings The safety of the equipment is assured only on the condition that it is carefully inspected every two weeks for any signs of damage and/or wear. Replace defective and worn components immediately, or alternatively remove the equipment from service. For maintenance actions not described in this manual, call in the Technogym Technical Service.
13 Aligning the treadmill When the equipment is running the treadmill must be centrally aligned in relation to the frame. If it tends to move to the right or left or is not centrally positioned, it needs aligning. A The alignment is done with the equipment running. Set the adjustment screw (A), located at the back of the equipment, opposite the control panel support riser, so that the belt is centrally aligned with the back roller.
14 14 Easily solved problems The following table lists a series of problems that may arise during normal use of Run Personal. If the solutions given don’t solve the problem, or if the problems are different, ask for help from the Technical Support Service.
14 Problem Cause Remedy Excessive noisiness Equipment not properly levelled Check the position and level with the adjustment screws Equipment next to source of Data incorrect or unreliable with Move the equipment to another place or move the sources of radio interference (e.g.
15 15 Technical Support Service The Technogym Technical Support Services provides: - telephone consultation - information about which services are covered by the warranty and which must be paid for - on-site servicing - supply of original spare parts. Technogym International Technical support HQ tel: +39 0547650638 fax: +39 0547650150 email: support@technogym.
16-17 16 Storage If a long period of disuse is expected, you are advised to store the equipment in the following way: - in a dry, clean place, covered with a cloth to protect it from dust - at a room temperature between +10°C and +25°C and relative humidity between 20% and 90%. For better storage, use the original packing materials. 17 Scrapping Always ensure that Run Personal poses no danger to people and do not let children play with it.
18 18 Switching on and off To turn the equipment on, switch the main witch to the “I” position (on) and press the additional switch. If the additional switch is lit, the equipment is on. After a quick system check (reset), the equipment is ready for use. To turn the equipment off, switch off the additional switch and switch the main switch to the “0” position (off). The equipment must be switched off only at the end of the exercise, when in standby.
19 19 Monitoring the heart rate The equipment is able to measure heart rate trends, in two different ways: - with a device applied to the central handgrip (hand sensor), that switches on when you grip the handgrip in the sensor region; - with a chest band with a heart rate transmitter (Polar T31). There must be no more than one transmitter in the reception range: otherwise the receiver may receive different signals at the same time and give incorrect heart readings.
19 The following table shows the optimum heart rate levels in relation to age and the goal to be achieved. Theoretical maximum heart rate (100%) is calculated on the basis of age using the formula: 220 - age. Aerobic exercise performed at a heart rate between 60% and 70% mainly burns fat as an energy source. When doing aerobic exercise at a heart rate of 70% to 90% the cardiocirculatory component prevails.
20 20 Using the Run Personal Run Personal is an equipment unit that simulates walking, running and aerobic exercises, which can be performed at different levels of intensity. It is also useful for limb and joint rehabilitation and cardiovascular exercises. This means a wide and diversified range of people can use it, from competitive athletes (for specific cardiovascular training) to ordinary individuals who want to get fit and keep in shape.
20 At a speed of about 6-7 km/h, the fast walking becomes a gentle run, with gradually lengthening steps. The speed will increase gradually as you feel more sure and stable. Do not lean too far forward or back. The correct position is with your head up, shoulders aligned with your hips, arms loose with elbows at 90°, looking straight ahead as if at a point 5 - 6 metres away. ! Warning Any distractions in the area around the equipment may cause the user to lose his/her balance.
