??? DANGER: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury, it is imperative to connect each product to a properly grounded electrical outlet.

??? WARNING: Keep the area six feet (two meters) by three feet (one meter) behind the treadmill clear of any obstructions, including walls, furniture, and other equipment.

??? WARNING: Be sure the emergency stop lanyard is clipped to the user and in proper position on the tread- mill before beginning any workout.

???To disconnect, turn power OFF at the ON/OFF switch, then remove plug from electrical outlet.

???Never operate a Life Fitness product if it has a damaged power cord or electrical plug, or if it has been dropped, damaged, or even partially immersed in water. Contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services.

???Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces. Do not pull the equipment by the power cord or use the cord as a handle. Do not run the power cord on the floor along the side of the treadmill. Refer to Section 1.2 for proper power cord routing.

???If the electrical supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, an authorized service agent, or a similarly qualified person to avoid a hazard.

LOCATION

???Position this product so that the power cord plug is accessible to the user.

???Never operate a Life Fitness product with the air openings blocked. Keep air openings free of lint, hair, or any obstructing material.

???Do not use this product in areas where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is being adminis- tered. Such substances create the danger of combustion and explosion.

???Close supervision is necessary when used near children, invalids or disabled persons.

???Do not use this product outdoors, near swimming pools or in areas of high humidity.

???Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments that have not been recommended by the manufacturer.

5

OPERATION

???Always follow the console instructions for proper operation.

???Never insert objects into any opening in this product. If an object should drop inside, turn off the power, unplug the power cord from the outlet, and carefully retrieve it. If the item cannot be reached, contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services.

???Do not reach into, or underneath, the unit or tip it on its side during operation.

???Never place liquids of any type directly on the unit, except in an accessory tray or holder. Containers with lids are recommended.

???Do not use this product in bare feet. Always wear shoes. Wear shoes with rubber or high-traction soles. Do not use shoes with heels, leather soles, cleats or spikes. Make sure no stones are embedded in the soles.

???Keep all loose clothing, shoelaces, and towels away from moving parts.

???Handrails may be held to enhance stability as needed, but are not for continuous use.

???Never mount or dismount the treadmill while the running belt is moving. Use the handrails whenever additional sta- bility is required. In case of an emergency, such as tripping, grasp the handrails, and place the feet on the side plat- forms.

???Never walk or jog backwards on the treadmill.

???The system issues immobilization of the treadmill when a pre-defined hard key sequence has been activated by the club manager. This sequence is currently defined as 3 STOP key presses followed by 3 SPEED DOWN ARROW key presses. To prevent false toggling of the Immobilized feature, this sequence should be limited to a pre-defined time period (i.e. sequence must be done in a 5-10 second period). Sequence should also enforce that only PRESSED events are used (i.e. if HELD or RELEASED are detected during the sequence then, the sequence is rejected). Once the Workout Logic sees this event, it toggles the Immobilization configuration item, saves it in the registry, and then issues an ImmobilizationStatus event to the system.

1.2SETUP

Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness Treadmill. Place the treadmill where it will be used before begin- ning the setup procedure.

ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS

The Life Fitness Treadmill requires a dedicated* line according to the elec- trical configurations listed in the chart below.

* One individual branch circuit for each treadmill per NEC article 210-21 (b) (1) and 210-

23 (or other appropriate, country specific electrical compliance guidelines). The hot, neu- tral and ground wires must each be routed independently (not looped or tied to other cir- cuits.)".

NOTE: Do not modify the plug provided with this product. If the plug does not fit into an available electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This Life Fitness product must be properly grounded. If the unit malfunctions or breaks down, proper grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current, which reduces the risk of shock to anyone touching or using the equipment. Each unit is equipped with an electrical cord, which includes an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordi- nances.

A temporary adapter MUST NOT BE USED to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle in North America. If a properly grounded, 20-amp outlet is not available, one must be installed by a qualified electrician. Models drawing 16 amps or more must be installed on a dedicated line.

IL EST ABSOLUMENT INTERDIT d'employer un adaptateur temporaire pour brancher cette fiche sur une prise bipolaire en Am??rique du Nord. Si aucune prise de 20 A correctement mise ?? la terre n'est disponible, en faire installer une par un ??lectricien qualifi??. Les mod??les utilisant 16 A ou plus doivent ??tre branch??s sur un circuit sp??cialis??.

DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor. Check with a qualified electrician if in doubt as to proper grounding technique. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit an electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Any modification to the electrical plug will result in a voided warranty.

DANGER:Un branchement incorrect du conducteur de mise ?? la terre peut entra??ner des risques de d??charge ??lectrique. Consulter un ??lectricien si des doutes subsistent quant ?? la technique de mise ?? la terre. NE PAS MODIFIER la fiche fournie avec l'appareil. Si elle ne s'adapte pas ?? une prise, faire installer une prise correcte par un ??lectricien qualifi??. Toute modification ?? la fiche annule la garantie.

HOW TO POSITION AND STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS TREADMILL

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the treadmill to the location in which it will be used. See Section 3, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of the product footprint (assembled dimensions.) Allow a distance of eight inches, or 21 centimeters, between the treadmill and other units on either side. Allow a distance of six feet, or two meters, from the rear of the treadmill to any object or surface.

After placing the unit where it will be used, check its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion or the unit is not stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen the JAM NUT (A), and turn the STABI- LIZING LEG (B) until the rocking motion ceases, and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor. Retighten the JAM NUT.

NOTE: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be correctly adjusted for proper operation. An unbalanced unit may cause striding belt misalignment. A bubble level is recommended to ensure proper leveling.

POWER SWITCH

Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions: "I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.

CENTERING THE BELT

After installing and levelling the treadmill, check the belt to ensure that it is tracking properly. First, plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet. See Electrical Power Requirements at the beginning of this section for details. Then, turn the treadmill ON.

Have one person stand on the platforms on either side of the treadmill frame. Do not stand on the belt at this time. Press the QUICK START key, and increase the speed to 4.0 miles per hour (MPH), or 6.4 kilometers per hour (KPH), using the SPEED UP arrow.

If the striding belt moves to the right while it is running, have a second person turn the right tension bolt a quarter-turn clock- wise, and then turn the left tension bolt (A) a quarter-turn counter-clockwise. See the illustration below. This action sets the striding belt tracking back to center of the roller.

If the striding belt moves to the left, turn the left tension bolt a quarter-turn clockwise and then turn the right tension bolt a quar- ter-turn counter-clockwise to start the striding belt tracking back to center of roller.

Repeat these adjustments until the striding belt appears centered. Allow the belt to continue running for several minutes to be sure that the tracking is stabilized.

NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If, after one full turn, the belt does not track properly, contact Customer Support Services. The phone numbers are listed in Section 2.7, titled How to Obtain Product Service.

10

STRIDE SENSOR AUTO-SHUTOFF SYSTEM

The Stride Sensor auto-shutoff system detects whether a user is on the belt/deck. If the user leaves the belt/deck during a workout, the system is triggered and the following message is displayed, "User not detected on belt - press ???OK??? to continue workout." If the user presses ???OK??? during this message the workout will continue without interruption. If the user does not press ???OK??? another message will be displayed, "User not detected on belt; RESUME WORKOUT / EXIT WORKOUT". At this point power to the belt will shut off as the treadmill enters Pause mode. If the user presses RESUME WORKOUT during the second message the workout will be resumed. If the user does not press RESUME WORKOUT, the treadmill will continue in Pause mode and eventually end the workout. This feature can be disabled in the Manager's Configuration.

CABLE TV HOOK-UP

Note to the CATV Installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer???s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guide- lines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

NOTE: The TV aspect of the 15??? LCD Console (95 Te) can only receive an analog signal. Digital cable must be external- ly converted to an analog signal. Life Fitness is not responsible for the installation of CATV service or components required for the delivery of CATV service. An external TV signal input via 75-ohm coaxial cable must be present before TV setup can occur. .

11

POWER CORD ROUTING

WARNING: Make sure the power cord is unplugged before attempting to route it around or through the treadmill.

The POWER CORD (A) can be run to the user-front left or right sides. Excess POWER CORD can be bundled and tied to the pre-installed CLIPS (B) located under the front of the treadmill.

The POWER CORD (A) can be run to the rear of the treadmill through the LEFT SIDERAIL (C). The POWER CORD should run under the LEFT UPRIGHT COVER and into the internal channel of the LEFT SIDERAIL as shown.

NOTE: To accommodate treadmill incline, at least two feet (24???) of POWER CORD is required between the outlet and the last power cord CLIP (B) for outlets in front of the treadmill.

WARNING: Make sure that there is a 6-foot clearance behind the treadmill. Contact Life Fitness Customer Service for an optional longer power cord if necessary.

DANGER: Insure that the power cord (A) does not contact the striding belt or get pinched between the frame (D), lift arm (E) or under the wheels (F); failure to follow this warning may result in serious injury.

AVERTISSEMENT: S'assurer que le cordon d'alimentation n'entre pas en contact avec le tapis et ne

soit pas pinc?? entre le cadre, le bras de levage ou la roue. Le non-respect de cet avertissement peut provoquer de graves blessures.

2 SERVICE AND TECHNICAL DATA

2.1PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE TIPS

The Life Fitness Treadmill is backed by the engineering excellence and reliability of Life Fitness and is one of the most rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today. Commercial Life Fitness Treadmills are among the most popular of aerobic trainers, regularly standing up to marathon use - 18 hours a day, seven days a week - in health clubs, colleges and military facilities the world over.

NOTE: Safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear. Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are sub- ject to wear, as outlined below.

REMARQUE : pour conserver un mat??riel s??r, il convient de l'inspecter r??guli??rement afin de d??celer tout signe d'usure ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pi??ces d??fectueuses n'ont pas ??t?? r??par??es ou remplac??es. Portez une attention toute particuli??re aux pi??ces qui s'usent, comme indiqu?? ci-dessous.

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the Life Fitness Treadmill operating at peak performance:

???Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces regularly with mild soap and water or a mild household clean- er. Use only a soft cotton cloth. Apply cleaner to the cotton cloth and before cleaning.

???DO NOT use ammonia or acid based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT use paper towels, DO NOT apply cleaners directly to equipment surfaces.*

???Check operation of the emergency stop system once a week.

???Check the operation of the stop button and stop magnet once a week.

???Inspect and vacuum the area directly surrounding and under the unit regularly.

???Vacuum around the striding belt regularly to keep debris from accumulating.

???Inspect exterior parts regularly for wear, particularly the striding belt, deck and line cord.

???Check to make sure the unit is properly leveled.

???Check the position (centering) of the striding belt.

The optimum operating position of the striding belt is from 0.75 inches (19.05 mm) to 1.25 inches (31.75 mm) from either side of the frame. If the striding belt travels beyond this position, see Section 2.5, titled How to Adjust and Tension the Striding Belt, or contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services, for proper alignment instructions, 1-800-351-3737 (USA).

*NOTE: When cleaning the exterior of the unit, a non-abrasive cleaner and soft cotton cloth are strongly recommended. At no time should cleaner be applied directly to any part of the equipment; use non-abrasive cleaner on a soft cloth and then wipe the unit.

2.5HOW TO ADJUST AND TENSION THE STRIDING BELT

Do not move treadmill or place hands under treadmill while it is plugged into an electrical outlet!

THE BELT TENSIONING BOLTS

A 5/16-inch hex key wrench is required for this task. The Life Fitness Treadmill has access holes in the rear roller guards which allow access to the tensioning bolts. These tensioning bolts make it possible to adjust the tracking and centering of the striding belt (A) with- out removing the guards.

NOTE: It is extremely important that the treadmill be correctly leveled prior to any tracking adjustments. An unstable unit may cause striding belt misalignment. See the topic titled "How To Stabilize the Life Fitness Treadmill" in the Section 1.3, titled Set Up, prior to attempting any rear roller adjustments.

Before proceeding, it is helpful to visualize the REAR ROLLER (B) pivot point (C). Each adjustment made to one side of the ROLLER must be met with an equal and opposite adjustment (D) to the other side of the ROLLER to maintain an ideal belt tension at the pivot point.

TRACKING (CENTERING) A STRIDING BELT

Two people are needed to perform this procedure.

1.Locate the two access holes to the belt tensioning bolts on each of the rear roller guards.

2.One person stands on the side rails of the treadmill and straddles the belt. This person presses the MANUAL workout and sets the belt speed to 2.5 MPH (4.0 KPH).

3.If the striding belt has moved to the right, the second person turns the right tension bolt a quarter-turn clockwise and then turns the left tension bolt a quarter-turn counter-clockwise to make the striding belt track back to the center of the roller.

If the striding belt has moved to the left, turn the left tension bolt a quarter-turn clockwise and then turn the right tension bolt a quarter-turn counter-clockwise to make the striding belt track back to the center of the roller.

4.Repeat the adjustments until the striding belt appears centered. Allow the machine to continue running for several minutes at 4.0 MPH. (6.4 KPH) to observe if tracking remains stabilized.

NOTE: Do not exceed one full turn of the adjusting screws in either direction. If after one full turn the belt does not track properly, contact Customer Support Services. The phone numbers are listed in Section 2.7, titled How to Obtain Product Service.

TENSIONING AN EXISTING STRIDING BELT

1Enter the Manual workout and operate the treadmill for five minutes at 5.0 MPH (8.0 KPH).

NOTE: DO NOT RUN OR WALK ON BELT.

2Reduce the speed to 2.0 MPH (3.2 KPH). Walk on the treadmill. Tightly grip the handrails and apply force with feet on the striding belt near the motor cover against the moving belt direction. If the belt slips, continue to Step 3. If it does not slip, the tension is correct.

3Using the STOP key, stop the treadmill. Turn the belt tensioning bolts a quarter-turn clockwise for each side.

4Repeat STEPS 2 and 3 until the belt no longer slips. Do not exceed one full turn (four quarter turns) per side when adjusting the belt tensioning bolts.

5Enter the MANUAL workout and operate the treadmill at 2.0 MPH (3.2 KPH) check to insure proper tracking (See Section 2.5, titled How to Adjust and Tension the Striding Belt). If the striding belt drifts to the left or right see the topic titled Tracking (Centering) an Existing or New Striding Belt..

Do not over-tighten the tensioning bolts while making belt adjustments. Over-tightening of bolts may over stretch and damage the striding belt or roller bearings. Do not exceed one full turn of either bolt in either direction.

18

2.6PROACTIVE BELT WEAR NOTIFICATION

The treadmill proactively notifies the facility manager about belt wear through diagnostics. An indicator icon is displayed on the treadmill console (if manager-enabled) when a belt check is required. This indicator icon is located in the lower left corner of the welcome screen.

???Automatic belt check reminder at 30,000 miles (48,000 km)
