Maintenance
The maintenance menu allows you to see the average value of the current drawn by the motor. It also allows you to reset
this counter.
A first threshold has been set to make sure that the normal high limit of current drawn by the motor will not be exceeded.
When that level is reached, the user will get the message DECK MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED and a diamond sign will be
displayed on the main screen. The message and sign will be displayed between each new exercise. After the maintenance
has been done and reset in the diagnostics menu, the notice will go away until there is a new rise of current.
If the maintenance is not done on the deck surface when required, a second threshold will trigger not too high above the
first one. Another notice with a square sign on the main display will come up. At that point the machine will not start again
until the deck maintenance is done and the maintenance has been reset in the diagnostics menu.
1. To access the Maintenance menu, you have to enter into diagnostics and choose MAINTENANCE and press ENTER.
There is two sub menu items: AVERAGE and RESET.
2. If you want to see the average current drawn by the motor simply go into the AVERAGE menu that will display the
average current in the motor from the last time it has been reset. To get out of that menu simply press STOP.
3. If you have done the maintenance, you need to reset the maintenance counter by accessing the RESET MAINTENANCE
menu and enter that menu and confirm that it has been done. You will then get a message that the “MAINTENANCE
COUNTER HAS BEEN RESET”. You can now restart the treadmill.

General Care
Your T240–T260 has been designed and built to give you trouble free use. For maximum safety however, you should
periodically check your unit for signs of wear.
Here’s a quick check list followed by reference Table 2:
• After each workout, you should wipe down your T240–T260 using a mild, non-abrasive liquid cleanser applied on a soft
cotton cloth. Do not spray cleansers directly on the unit or use an excessively damp cloth. Do not clean the unit with the
power ON, be sure that it is OFF.
• Be sure that the treadmill is on a level surface and that it is not rocking. Excessive rocking may cause the running belt to
track to one side of the deck resulting in accelerated wear of the running belt.
• Keep liquids including excessive sweat away from the computer console.
• The running belt and deck surface should be kept clean. Dirt and other debris can cause slipping when exercising.
• Check that each handle bar is secure on the frame.
• Do not put any lubricating product other than the Bodyguard
®
lubricant.
• Place a carpet or rubber mat under the treadmill to avoid any build up of debris from your exercise shoes. Under
extreme conditions, some debris may collect on the floor just behind the rear roller. It is also recommended to periodically
remove any dust that may have accumulated under the treadmill. Excessive amounts of dust may enter into the motor
assembly and cause the motor to overheat.
• It is very important to periodically remove any dust that may have accumulated under the motor cover. Use compressed
air to blow out the accumulated dust in the motor and board area.
WARNING – To prevent electrical shock or risk of fire, always turn the power OFF and disconnect the power cord whenever
you are inspecting and repairing your T240–T260.
