TROUBLESHOOTING
Most treadmill problems can be solved by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and
follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the dealer contact information on the
b
ack cover of this manual or on the included service card.
PROBLEM: The power does not turn on
SOLUTION:
a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a properly earthed outlet (see page 11). If an exten-
sion cord is needed, use only a 3-conductor, 14-gauge (1 mm
2
) cord that is no longer than 5 ft.
(1.5 m). Important: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.
b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is inserted into the console.
c. Check the resest/off circuit breaker located on the
treadmill near the power cord. If the switch pro-
trudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped. To
reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes and
then press the switch back in.
PROBLEM: The power turns off during use
SOLUTION: a. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the treadmill frame near the power cord (see the
drawing above). If the circuit breaker has tripped, wait for five minutes and then press the switch
back in.
b. Make sure that the power cord is plugged in. If the power cord is plugged in, unplug it, wait for
five minutes, and then plug it back in.
c. Remove the key from the console. Reinsert the key into the console.
d. If the treadmill still will not run, see the front cover of this manual.
PROBLEM: The incline of the treadmill does not change correctly
SOLUTION: a. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons. While the incline is changing, re-
move the key. After a few seconds, re-insert the key. The treadmill will automatically rise to the
maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level. This will recalibrate the incline system.
PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly
SOLUTION:
a. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE
POWER CORD. With the help of a second person,
carefully tip the Uprights (84) down as shown. Next, re
-
move the three Screws (3) and the three 3/4" Screws
(83). Note: A Phillips screwdriver with a shaft at least
5" long is required.
