QUICKSTART™
CAUTION: Before using the EFX
®
, read all these instructions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
• Do not allow people unfamiliar with its operation,
or children, on or near the treadmill.
• Before beginning any fitness program, see your
physician for a thorough physical examination. Seek
advice from your physician to learn the target
heart rate appropriate for your fitness level.
• Always face the display and use the
stationary handrail for balance. Never
attempt to turn around on the EFX.
• If you feel pain, faintness, or dizziness,
stop exercising immediately.
User ID Keys
Pick one of two user ID keys and
store workout preferences with your
user number. The next time you
exercise, press the appropriate
USER key when the Precor
banner appears. Your workout
preferences are immediately
restored. Press QUICKSTART
to begin working out.
The Locking Pin on the
Roller Arm
The locking pin on the EFX ramp
secures the roller arm and
prevents it from continuous
travel up or down the ramp.
To prevent unauthorized use,
secure the roller arm with the
locking pin after every workout.
Pull firmly on the pin to slide it
out of the roller arm. A lanyard
attaches the locking pin to the
ramp. Store the locking pin
underneath the ramp once it
is removed from the roller arm.
Workout Tips
• Before and after a workout, gently stretch
your lower body and back to help prevent
stiffness or soreness.
• At the beginning of a workout, take several
minutes to bring your heart rate into your
target zone (shown in Diagram D on the other
side of this card).
• Depending on your level of fitness, consider
maintaining a pedaling speed between 100
and 150 strides per minute. Do not drop
below 20 strides per minute during a workout
or you enter pause mode.
• To pause during your workout, stop pedaling.
Pause mode has a 10-minute limit.
• Incorporate a cool-down period into your
workout to help lower your heart rate and
minimize muscle stiffness or soreness.
