TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshooting
In the following cases, the machine is not broken. Be sure to check the following before asking for the machine to be serviced.
Trouble Check items
Action
Refer to page 10. Adjust the belt so the bal-
ance between the left and right sides is im-
proved.
The LCD screen is completely blank.
Is the power source connected?
Check that the plug is inserted into an out-
let.
Is the power switch ON? Turn the power switch ON.
Are the cords all plugged in correctly?
Correctly connect all cords to the circuit
board under the motor cover.
Has the circuit breaker been
tripped?
Next to the power switch on the front of the
main unit there is a button for recovery
when the breaker has been tripped.
Press this button.
The data card is inserted, but nothing ap-
pears except "CARD ERROR" or
strange displays.
Has the card been inserted correctly?
Insert the card slowly with the arrow on the
card facing upward and in the direction in-
dicated by the arrow.
Were multiple programs selected?
Or some unnecessary parts scratched off?
Refer to page 34. Be sure to record the data
correctly.
The pulse rate is not measured. It shows
only zero.
The pulse rate is abnormally high.
Has the chest-belt heart rate sensor been
put on correctly?
Refer to page 12. Be sure the chest-belt
heart rate sensor is worn properly.
Has the sensor's battery power run out?
Refer to page 38. Replace the chest-belt
heart rate sensor battery.
Is the distance too far for the receiver to
detect?
Reception becomes poor when the dis-
tance from the control unit exceeds 80 cen-
timeters. Exercise within an arm's reach
distance from the control unit.
The screen display (language) is strange.
Are the dip switches in the wrong posi-
tion?
Refer to page 39. Check the positions of
the dip switches inside the control unit.
During training, was the pulse rate upper
limit exceeded and the pulse alarm func-
tion activated?
When the pulse rate upper limit has been ex-
ceeded, the machine decides that the pulse
rate has reached a dangerous level. The
safety mechanism automatically reduces
speed and incline to the minimum levels.
If this happens, rest for a while.
The exercise stops in the middle of HR
control training.
Was your age and pulse rate upper limit
input correctly?
Correctly set the age and pulse rate upper
limit. Avoid reaching an unnecessarily high
pulse rate.
The running belt is too close to one side
or the other; or the running belt is rub-
bing against the side.
Has the belt-adjustment been done?
3
Has the electrode belt been damaged? Refer to page 38. Replace the electrode
belt.
This has happened due to a power voltage
failure. Use a power socket directly, for ex-
ample one on the wall. Never use multiple
plugs in a single socket.
The running belt moves abnormally.
Are two or more electric appliances con-
nected to the power outlet?
Insert the safety key or card.
Has the safety key function been acti-
vated?
