NOTE: Do not modify the plug provided with this product. If the plug does not fi t into an available electrical
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed 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
ordinances.
A temporary adapter MUST NOT BE USED to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle in North
America. If a properly grounded, 15-amp outlet is not available, one must be installed by a qualifi ed
electrician. For use on a nominal 120-V circuit, this product has a grounding plug that looks like the
one in the accompanying illustration. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the
same confi guration as the plug.
IL EST ABSOLUMENT INTERDIT d’employer un adaptateur temporaire pour brancher cette fi che sur
uneprise bipolaire en Amérique du Nord. Si aucune prise de 15 A correctement mise à la terre n’est
disponible,en faire installer une par un électricien qualifi é.
DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor. Check with a qualifi ed electrician if in doubt as to proper grounding technique. DO NOT
modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fi t an electrical outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualifi ed electrician. Any modifi cation to the electrical plug will result in a voided war-
ranty.
Un branchement incorrect du conducteur de mise à la terre peut entraîner des risques de décharge
électrique.Consulter un électricien si des doutes subsistent quant à la technique de mise à la terre.
NE PAS MODIFIER lafi che fournie avec l’appareil. Si elle ne s’adapte pas à une prise, faire installer une
prise correcte par un électricienqualifi é. Toutemodifi cation à la fi che annule la garantie.

How to Position and Stabilize the Life Fitness Treadmill
Following all Safety Instructions in Section 1.1 and move the treadmill to the location in which it will be used. See
Specifi catons for the dimensions of the product footprint (assembled dimensions).
Safety Clearances
The following information is supplied as regional reference data regarding safety
clearances around the exterior of the treadmill.
EU: The European EN957 Safety Standard requires a 2 meter (6.5 feet)
minimum from the rear of the treadmill to any object or surface.
U.S. and other regions: The ASTM International (ASTM ) F2115 - 05 Standard
recommends the minimum dimensions to be 0.5 meter (1.64 feet) on each
side of the treadmill and 1 meter (3.28 feet) behind the rearward most portion
of the usable moving surface or 2 meters (6.5 feet) behind the furthest rear-
ward obstruction to emergency egress from the treadmill.
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 fl oor. To
adjust, loosen the JAM NUT (A), and turn the STABILIZING
LEG (B) until the rocking motion ceases, and both stabilizing
legs rest fi rmly on the fl oor. 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.
Turning the Unit On
To turn the treadmill on, locate the ON/OFF 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. Switch it to the ON position.
NOTE (INTERNATIONAL UNITS ONLY): Treadmill will go into Energy Saving Mode after 5 minutes of inactivity. To wake
up the console, step on the treadmill belt. The treadmill will automatically wake up and the console will light up. Waking
up the treadmill takes approximately 10 seconds after stepping onto the belt.
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 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
clockwise, and then turn the left tension bolt (C) 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 quarter-turn counter-clockwise to start the striding belt tracking back to center of roller.
Repeat these adjustments until striding belt appears centered. Allow the belt

The two interchangeable type RJ45 networking ports (A) are located on the back of the
display console. These network ports, located behind the display console rear access
door, allow for console software updates.
Power Cord Routing
The power cord can be run straight from the treadmill, shortened and exited out the
user-front left side, or run under the frame using the power cord clips and exited out the
user right-rear side of the treadmill. For effi cient cord management, the following routing
options are recommended:
With the power cord unplugged, insert the clips in the appropriate holes. See the illustration below. Use Hole Pattern 1
or 2 to locate the clips and secure the power cord with the clips, taking up any slack between clips.
NOTE: It may be necessary to tip the treadmill to route the power cord properly.
To plug the power cord into an outlet in front of the treadmill, use Hole Pattern 1 for outlets located at the front of the
machine.
NOTE: To accommodate treadmill incline, at least two feet (24”) of power cord is required between the outlet and the
last power cord clip for outlets in front of the treadmill.
To plug the power cord into an outlet in rear of the treadmill, use Hole Pattern 2 for outlets located at the rear of the
machine.
WARNING: Make sure that there is a 6.5 foot clearance behind the treadmill.
Contact Life Fitness Customer Services for an optional longer power cord if necessary.
WARNING: Insure that the power cord (A)
does not contact the striding belt or get pinched between the
frame (C), lift arm (B) or the wheel. 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 pincé entre le cadre, le bras de levage ou la roue. Le non-
respect de cet avertissement peut provoquer de graves blessures.

3 Heart Rate Zone Training®
3.1 Why Heart Rate Zone Training Exercise?
Research shows that maintaining a specifi c heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor the intensity of a
workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training® approach
to exercise.
Zone Training identifi es an exerciser’s ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fi t-
ness. The zone is a percentage of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), and its value depends on the workout. The maxi-
mal Heart Rate formula is defi ned by the American College of Sports Medicine’s “Guidelines for Exercise Testing and
Prescription”, 8th Edition, 2010. HRmax equals to 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age.
HR Max = 206.9 - (0.67 *age)
The Life Fitness Treadmill features fi ve exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the benefi ts of Heart Rate
Zone Training+ exercise:
• FAT BURN • HEART RATE HILL™ • EXTREME HEART RATE™
• CARDIO • HEART RATE INTERVAL™
Each workout offers different benefi ts, as discussed in Section 4, The Workouts.
NOTE: Consulting a fi tness trainer is recommended for defi ning specifi c fi tness goals and designing a workout pro-
gram.
To change the target heart rate during a workout, simply enter a new target heart rate using the NUMERIC KEYPAD.
To switch between programs during a workout, use the WORKOUT SELECTION KEYS.
The Heart Rate Zone Training® workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the optional Polar® telemetry heart rate
chest strap, or grip the Lifepulse™sensors, to enable the treadmill’s on-board computer to monitor the heart rate
during a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the incline level to maintain the target heart rate based on the
actual heart rate.

3.2 Heart Rate Monitoring
The Lifepulse™ System
To use the treadmill’s Lifepulse system to check the heart rate during a workout, grasp the stainless steel sensors on the
Ergo™ front handlebar. Two sensors are located on each of the handlebars. Contact must be maintained with all four
sensors to obtain a heart rate. The console displays a heart rate within 20 to 30 seconds of contact with the sensors.
Do not attempt to grasp the sensors at speeds above 4.5 mph or 7.2 kph. For these speeds, the use of a heart rate
chest strap is recommended.
The Optional Polar® Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap
The Life Fitness Treadmill is equipped with Polar® telemetry, a heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes,
pressed against the skin, transfer heart rate signals to the treadmill console. These electrodes are attached to a chest
strap that the user wears during the workout. The Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is optional. Contact Life Fitness
Customer Support Services to order.
See the diagram below for correct positioning of the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap. The electrodes (A), which
are the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, must remain wet to transmit accurately the electrical im-
pulses of the heart back to the receiver. Moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap
as high under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal
breathing.
The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart rate reading when the electrodes are in direct contact with bare skin.
However, it functions properly through a thin layer of wet clothing. If it becomes necessary to re-moisten the Polar
telemetry heart rate chest strap electrodes, grasp the center of the strap, pull it away from the chest to expose the two
electrodes, and re-moisten them.
During the setup of a heart rate zone training workout, the user will be required to enter a start-up speed. If a Polar te-
lemetry heart rate chest strap is not detected, the maximum allowable speed is 4.5 mph. If a Polar telemetry heart rate
chest strap is detected, the maximum speed is 12 mph.

4.3 Workout Descriptions
QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising. After the QUICK START key is pressed, a MANUAL workout begins,
at a very slow speed with the incline level set to zero by default. Change the speed using the PRESET SPEED keys on
the Activity Zone to jump to a preset speed. Use the SPEED ARROW keys on the console or on the Activity Zone to
gradually move the speed up or down as desired, or use the NUMERIC KEYPAD to enter a new speed value. Use the
INCLINE ARROW keys on the console or on the Activity Zone to move the incline gradually up or down as desired. For
accurate caloric expenditure, enter your weight using the enter weight button. The preset speeds are as follows:
English Default Units Metric Default Units
2.0 mph 3.0 kph
4.0 mph 6.0 kph
6.0 mph 9.0 kph
MANUAL
The MANUAL program is a constant effort workout in which the user can change incline level or speed at any
time.
RANDOM
The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million
different patterns are possible.
FAT BURN
The FAT BURN workout is designed to maintain a user’s heart rate at 65% of the theoretical maximum (HRmax) for op-
timal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grasps the Lifepulse™
sensors. If the user is not wearing a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW displays
a heart shape, and the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to grasp the sensors. The console continuously monitors
and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the treadmill to reach and maintain the target. This system
eliminates over- training and under-training, and it maximizes the aerobic benefi ts of exercise by using the body’s fat
stores for fuel.
NOTE: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can only be changed by the user.
CARDIO
The CARDIO workout is virtually identical to Fat Burn, however the target heart rate is calculated at 80% of the
theoretical maximum (HRmax). The higher target promotes cardiovascular improvement by placing a heavier workload
on the heart muscle.
NOTE: The intensity level is changed by incline. Speed can only be changed by the user.
NOTE: Change the target heart rate at any time by using the NUMERIC KEYPAD.
SPEED INTERVAL
This program allows the user to toggle between user defi ned jog and run speeds. The speed interval button will fl ash
throughout the workout. The user can toggle the speeds at any time during the workout by pressing the speed interval
button. The current speed will appear in the speed display window.
The preset JOG and RUN Speeds cannot be changed during a workout. The speed can be adjusted at any time during
a workout using the speed arrow keys. Toggling the JOG and RUN speeds using the speed interval button will reset
the speeds to the preset JOG and RUN speeds.
23
HILL
The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of confi gurations for interval training. Intervals are periods of
intense cardiovascular exercise separated by regular periods of lower-intensity exercise. The WORKOUT PROFILE win-
dow represents these high and low intervals as columns of illuminated LEDs, which together have the appearance of
hills and valleys. The computerized interval training workout has been scientifi cally demonstrated to promote greater
cardiorespiratory improvement than steady-pace training.
The HILL workout goes through four phases, each marked by different intensity levels. The WORKOUT PROFILE win-
dow displays the progress of these phases. As noted in the descriptions below, the heart rate should be measured at
two stages in the workout to gauge its effectiveness. Wear the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or continuously
grip the Lifepulse™ handles. The MESSAGE CENTER does not display a request for a heart rate measurement, as it
does with CARDIO, FAT BURN and the HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING programs.
1. Warm-up is a phase of low, gradually rising resistance, which brings the heart rate into the lower end of the
target zone and increases respiration and blood fl ow to working muscles.
2. Plateau increases the intensity slightly and keeps it steady, to bring the heart rate to the low end of the target
zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.
3. Interval Training is a series of increasingly steeper hills alternating with valleys or stints of recovery. The heart
rate should rise to the high end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.
4. Cool Down is a low-intensity phase that allows the body to begin removing lactic acid and other exercise by-
products which build up in muscles and contribute to soreness.
Each column, as seen in the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW and the chart above, represents one interval. The overall
duration of the workout determines the length of each interval. Each workout is made up of 20 intervals, so the dura-
tion of each interval is equal to the duration of the entire workout divided by 20.
1 to 9 minutes: A workout with a duration of less than 10 minutes is insuffi cient for the HILL program to complete all
four phases adequately. The program therefore condenses a workout of this duration at various stages.
10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations initially are set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every minute over
10, each interval increases by three seconds. A 15-minute workout consists of 20 intervals at 45 seconds each.
20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. If the user adds minutes to the pre-set duration while the workout is in
progress, the program adds hills and valleys that are identical to the fi rst eight intervals of the Interval Training phase.
This pattern repeats until the workout is completed.
24
PERSONAL TRAINER
• CUSTOM WORKOUTS
The treadmill console stores up to six custom workouts. For information on creating these workouts, see Programming
Custom Workouts in Section 5.
To use CUSTOM WORKOUTS, press the PERSONAL TRAINER KEY repeatedly until the MESSAGE CENTER displays
“personal trainer workouts”. Then, press ENTER. The MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to select a custom workout
number, ranging from 1 to 6. Using the ARROW KEYS or the NUMERIC KEYPAD, select the number and press ENTER. If
a workout has not been created for that number, the MESSAGE CENTER simply scrolls to the next number. If a workout
has been created for the selected number, the MESSAGE CENTER displays successive prompts to enter the weight and
choose a speed. After these entries are provided, the workout begins.
• DISTANCE GOAL
This workout is designed to build endurance. The objective is to cover a certain distance in miles. Once the objective is
met, the workout automatically goes into a cool down phase, and ends afterward.
NOTE: When a user sets this goal with the TIME ARROW keys, the console displays the values in .10-mile increments.
• CALORIES GOAL
This workout is designed to promote weight loss and weight control. The objective is to burn a certain number of calo-
ries in the selected time duration. Once the objective is met, the workout automatically goes into a cool down phase,
and ends afterward.
• TIME IN ZONE GOAL
The Time in Zone Goal program, a feature of Heart Rate Zone Training®, enhances FAT BURN and CARDIO workouts by
setting a duration for staying within the target zone as the workout goal. Once the duration objective is met, the work-
out goes into a cool down phase.
• SPORT TRAINING™
This distance-goal workout is designed for runners training for races. The program creates realistic terrains by set-
ting different incline levels throughout the course. Incline grades depend on the diffi culty levels selected during the
workout setup. A 1.5% incline grade, which is the baseline level, simulates a fl at running surface. A zero percent grade
simulates running downhill. Incline durations range between 30 and 60 seconds. The course ends when the distance
goal is met. Two Sport Training programs are available on the treadmill:
Sport Training (5K) is a 5-kilometer, or 3.1-mile, course.
Sport Training (10K) is a 10-kilometer, or 6.2-mile, course.
25
ZONE TRAINING +
Zone Training workouts target specifi c ranges, or zones, for maintaining a heart rate to achieve maximum exercise
results.
HEART RATE HILL™
This program combines the standard HILL workout profi le with the concept of Heart Rate Zone Training. The default
target heart rate is calculated as 80% of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), but the user can adjust the target rate dur-
ing the workout setup. All hills and valleys are percentages of HRmax. The workout consists of three hills that target
three heart rate goals: The fi rst hill brings the heart rate to 70% of HRmax. The second hill increases the rate to 75%
of HRmax. The third hill matches the Target Heart Rate bringing the heart rate to 80% of HRmax. The valley always is
defi ned as 65 percent of HRmax.
After a standard three-minute warm-up, the workout progresses toward the fi rst hill and heart rate goal. Once the user
reaches 70% of HRmax, the hill continues for one minute. When the minute expires, the level decreases into a valley.
Once the user’s heart rate falls to 65% of HRmax, the valley continues for one minute. Then, the next hill begins with its
corresponding heart rate goal. After the user completes the third hill/valley pair, the program returns to the fi rst hill and
repeats the cycle as long as the duration allows. At the end of the duration, the workout goes into a cool-down phase.
If the heart rate goes above the theoretical maximum for more than 45 seconds, the treadmill automatically goes into
pause mode. If the user does not reach a heart rate goal after fi ve minutes, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt
to increase or decrease speed, depending on whether the workout is in a hill or valley phase. The program does not
proceed to a new heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

HEART RATE INTERVAL™
This program also combines the standard HILL workout profi le with the concept of Heart Rate Zone Training. The
default target heart rate is calculated as 80% of the theoretical maximum (HRmax), but the user can adjust the target
rate during the workout setup. The workout alternates between a hill, which brings the heart rate up to the target
rate of 80% of HRmax, and a valley which brings the heart rate down to 65% of HRmax. After a standard three-minute
warm-up, the workout progresses toward the fi rst hill and heart rate goal. Once the goal is reached, the hill continues
for three minutes, then the level decreases into a valley. Once the 65% of HRmax goal is reached, the valley continues
for three minutes, after which the next hill begins. The user’s fi tness level determines the number of hills and valleys
encountered within the duration. At the end of the duration, the workout goes into a cool down phase. If the heart rate
goes above the theoretical maximum for more then 45 seconds, the treadmill automatically goes into pause mode. If
the user does not reach a heart rate goal after fi ve minutes, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to increase or de-
crease speed, depending on whether the workout is in a hill or valley phase. The program does not proceed to a new
heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

EXTREME HEART RATE™
This intense, varied workout is designed to help more experienced users to break through fi tness improvement pla-
teaus. The workout alternates between two target heart rates as quickly as possible. The effect is similar to that of run-
ning sprints. The user must wear a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grip the Lifepulse sensors throughout the
workout.
NOTE: It is recommended that users who run at speeds faster than 4.5 mph wear the Polar telemetry heart rate chest
strap and do not use the Lifepulse sensors.
When setting up the workout, the user enters a target heart rate and selects a walk speed and a jog speed. After a stan-
dard three-minute warm-up, the treadmill accelerates to the jog speed, and the incline increases, until the user reaches
the target heart rate goal of 85% of the theoretical maximum (HRmax). That target rate is maintained for a stabilizing
period. Then, the incline is reduced to 0%, and the treadmill slows to the walk speed. When the heart rate falls to the
65% of HRmax goal, it is maintained there for a stabilizing period. The program repeats the alternating of speeds and
incline levels, continuing this pattern throughout the duration.
If the user does not reach a heart rate goal after fi ve minutes, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to increase or
decrease speed, depending on whether the workout is in a hill or valley phase. The program does not proceed to a
new heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

FIT TEST
The treadmill FIT TEST program is another exclusive feature of this versatile treadmill. The Fit Test workout estimates
cardiovascular fi tness and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every four to six weeks. The user must
grasp the hand sensors (if equipped) when prompted, or wear a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap as the test score
calculation is based on a heart rate reading. The workout duration will be fi ve minutes total with a one minute warm-up
at 0% incline followed by four additional minutes at a 5% incline. Immediately afterward, the console will take the user’s
heart rate reading, calculate a fi tness score and display the score in the MESSAGE CENTER.
The Fit Test is considered to be a submax VO
2
(volume of oxygen) test. It gauges how well the heart supplies oxygen-
ated blood to the exercising muscles and how effi ciently those muscles receive oxygen from the blood. Physicians and
exercise physiologists generally regard this test as a good measure of aerobic capacity.
To set up the Fit Test:
Press the FIT TEST button repeatedly until the FIT TEST option appears in the message center. Press ENTER to
select the FIT TEST option.
The message center will prompt for a user weight (ENTER WEIGHT). Use the NUMERIC KEYS or UP/DOWN
ARROW KEYS to input your weight. Press ENTER to accept the weight.
The message center will next prompt for a user age (ENTER AGE). Use the NUMERIC KEYS or UP/DOWN
ARROW KEYS to input your age. Press ENTER to accept the age.
The message center will next prompt for a user gender (SELECT GENDER). Using the UP/DOWN ARROW
KEYS, select a gender. Press ENTER to accept the gender selection.
The MESSAGE CENTER will next prompt for a workout level (ENTER speed)(2-4.5 mph). Consult the following
recommended fi t test level chart for an appropriate effort level based on your age, gender and activity level.
Use the NUMERIC KEYS or UP/DOWN speed ARROW KEYS to enter the corresponding level.
After the fi ve-minute FIT TEST is completed, a FIT TEST score and rating will be displayed.
Fit Test Program Suggested Exertion Levels
Inactive Active Very Active
Treadmill Fit Test Level 2 - 3 mph 3 - 4 mph 3.5 - 4.5 mph
3.2 - 4.8 kph 4.8 - 6.4 kph 5.6 - 7.2 kph
NOTE: Treadmill will incline to 5% after a one minute warm-up.
Suggested exertion levels should be used as a guideline for setting up the Fit Test program. The goal is to elevate the
user’s heart rate to a level that is between 60%-85% of their theoretical maximum heart rate.
Within each suggested range, these additional guidelines can be used:
Lower Half of Range Upper Half of Range
higher age lower age
lower weight higher weight*
shorter taller
* In cases of excessive weight, use lower half of range
The computer will not accept:
heart rates less than 52 or greater than 200 beats per minute
body weights less than 75 pounds (34 kg) or greater than 400 pounds (181 kg)
ages below 10 or over 99 years
data input that exceeds human potential
29
If you make an error when entering any Fit Test data, you can correct it by pressing CLEAR, inputting the correct infor-
mation, and pressing ENTER.
It is important for you to take the Fit Test under similar circumstances each time. Your heart rate is dependent on many
factors, including:
amount of sleep the previous night (at least seven hours is recommended)
time of day
time you last ate (two to four hours after the last meal is recommended)
time since you last drank a liquid containing caffeine or alcohol, or smoked a cigarette (at least four hours is
recommended)
time since you last exercised (at least six hours is recommended)
For the most accurate Fit Test results, you should perform the Fit Test on three consecutive days and average the three
scores.
NOTE: To receive a proper Fit Test score, the work done must be within a training heart rate zone that is 60% to 85% of
the theoretical maximum heart rate (HRmax).

and cardiorespiratory fi tness.
WFI Submax Protocol: Submaximal VO
2
The WFI Submax Protocol is a graded submax assessment used to predict a fi re fi ghter’s aerobic capacity. This
test automatically increases speed and incline until a target heart rate is reached. This assessment replaces the
Gerkin assessment.
Physical Effi ciency Battery: 1.5 miles
The Physical Effi ciency Battery is used by U.S. Federal Law Enforcement, U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation,
and other federal organizations for the hiring and maintenance of federal jobs.
Scores for these tests are based on fi nishing time, age, and gender.
To set up one of these tests, press the FIT TEST key repeatedly until the MESSAGE CENTER displays the name of the
desired test, then press ENTER. If the selected test is either the Navy or Marines test, the MESSAGE CENTER displays
a question as to whether or not the test is taking place below a certain altitude. For the Navy test, the altitude is 5,000
feet above sea level; and for the Marines test, the altitude is 4,500 feet above sea level. Press 1 for YES and 2 for NO
then press ENTER.
At the MESSAGE CENTER prompts, enter the weight, age, gender, and desired speed, using the ARROW keys or the
NUMERIC KEYPAD. Press ENTER after each entry. Then, begin the workout. To ensure an accurate test score, do not
change these entries once the workout begins.
For all fi tness tests except WFI SUBMAX PROTOCOL, after the distance goal is reached, the workout program goes into
a cool down. The duration of this phase depends on the amount of time taken to complete the test. For less than fi ve
minutes, the cool down is one minute. For fi ve to fi fteen minutes, the cool down is three minutes. For longer times, the
cool down is fi ve minutes. The user can abort the cool down by pressing the STOP button or the CLEAR key. After the
cool down is aborted or completed, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the fi nishing time and a point score for the PEB,
Army, and Marines tests; or a qualitative score, such as Excellent, for the Navy test.
For the WFI SUBMAX PROTOCOL, once the target heart rate has been exceeded for fi fteen seconds, the program goes
into a cool down. The cool down last for three minutes at 3 mph at a 0% grade. The workout summary includes the fol-
lowing information:
The test time is displayed in the TIME window.
The VO
2
max test score is displayed in the SPEED window.
The recovery heart rate is displayed in the HEART RATE window.

Within each level are seven incline percentages, or hills. During a workout, each hill appears in the WORKOUT PROFILE
window as rows of light stacked in a column. The number of lit rows within a column corresponds to an incline percent-
age. For example, in Level 5 the lowest incline is 0.0% and is represented as one lit row. The highest incline, 4.3%, is
represented by a column with all seven rows lit.
In the HILL and Random workouts, these varying hills occur for equal durations, as discussed in the HILL workout de-
scription. When the workout program brings up a new hill, the incline percentage changes automatically to match that
hill. To change levels during a workout, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad.
Using InstaPace™ Feedback
The InstaPace™ Feedback feature enables users to monitor their pace, or rate of minutes per mile, while running on
the treadmill. This feature must be enabled in the Manager’s Confi guration. See Section 5 for more information. The
MESSAGE CENTER displays the MPH and pace simultaneously when the user adjusts the treadmill speed with the ar-
row keys. If the user adjusts the speed using the NUMERIC keypad, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the pace after the
treadmill reaches the new speed.
Using ZerOut™ Speed Control
If during a workout, a user decreases the speed to the minimum and continues to hold the DECREASE SPEED ARROW,
the speed falls to 0 mph which is pause mode. The minimum speed is 0.5 mph, unless changed in the Manager’s Con-
fi guration. See Section 5 for more information.
32
Cool Down
Life Fitness’ unique Cool Down Protocol automatically customizes every cool down based on each user’s workout
performance. Workout performance factors such as speed, incline, duration and heart rate determine the duration
and intensity of the cool down.
Dimming
The dimming feature controls the brightness of the treadmill console display. To change the default brightness setting,
press the PERSONAL TRAINER button repeatedly until the MESSAGE CENTER displays “DIMMING,” and press ENTER.
Then use the ARROW keys to increase or decrease the brightness to the desired setting, and press ENTER to save the
new setting, or press CLEAR to revert to the default brightness setting.
If a new brightness setting is selected for a workout, that setting remains in place until it is manually changed, or the
workout concludes. When a new workout begins the brightness reverts to the default setting.

6.4 Troubleshooting the Optional Polar Telemetry Heart Rate Chest Strap
Malfunction Probable Cause Corrective Action
Heart rate reading is
erratic or absent en-
tirely.
Belt transmitter electrodes are
not wet enough to pick up ac-
curate heart rate readings.
Wet the belt transmitter electrodes (see Section 3.2).
Belt transmitter electrodes are
not laying fl at against the skin.
Ensure the belt transmitter electrodes are laying fl at
against the skin (see Section 3.2).
Belt transmitter needs cleaning. Wash the belt transmitter with mild soap and water.
Belt transmitter is not within
3.25 feet (1 meter) of the heart
rate receiver.
Make sure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap trans-
mitter is within 3 feet (1 meter) of the heart rate receiver.
Polar telemetry heart rate chest
strap battery is depleted.
Contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services for in-
structions on how to have the Polar telemetry heart rate
chest strap replaced.
Polar telemetry heart rate chest
strap did not lock in with the
heart rate receiver.
Make sure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is in-
stalled and move closer to the heart rate receiver. Wait up
to 10 seconds for the heart rate to display on the console.
Notes:
1. Ensure proper adherence of the Polar telemetry heart
rate chest strap to user’s chest.
2. Ensure proper conductivity between the electrodes
and user’s chest.
3. If needed, use the Polar watch to verify the Polar
telemetry heart rate chest strap’s operation.
Heart rate reading is
initially detected and
functioning normally
but then is lost.
Use of personal electronic
devices, such as cell phones
and portable MP3 players,
causes external noise
interference.
Remove the source of noise or reposition the exercise
equipment.
Equipment is in close proximity
to other sources of noise such
as audio/ video equipment,
fans, two way radios, and high
voltage/high current power
lines.
Heart rate readings are
abnormally elevated.
Television sets and/or antennas
generate electromagnetic
interference.
Move the treadmill a few inches away from the probable
cause, or move the probable cause a few inches away
from the treadmill, until the heart rate readings are ac-
curate.
Cell phones generate
electromagnetic interference.
Computers generate electro-
magnetic interference.
Cars generate electromagnetic
interference.
High voltage power lines
generate electromagnetic
interference.
Motor driven exercise equip-
ment generates electromag-
netic interference.
Another heart rate transmitter
within 3 feet (1 meter)
generates electromagnetic
interference.

6.5 How to Adjust and Tension the Striding Belt
Do not move the treadmill or place hands under the 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) without 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 “How To Stabilize the Life Fitness Treadmill” 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 work-
out 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 Life Fitness Customer Support Services.
44
Tensioning an Existing Striding Belt
1. Enter the MANUAL workout and operate the treadmill for fi ve minutes at 5.0 mph (8.0 kph).
NOTE: DO NOT RUN or WALK ON BELT.
2. Reduce 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.
3. Using the STOP key, stop the treadmill. Turn the belt tensioning bolts a quarter-turn clockwise for each side.
4. Repeat 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.
5. Enter the MANUAL workout, and operate the treadmill at 2.0 mph (3.2 kph) and check to insure proper tracking. If
the striding belt drifts to the left or right see Tracking (Centering) A Striding Belt on the previous page.
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.
6.6 Proactive Belt Wear Notifi cation
The treadmill proactively notifi es the facility manager about belt wear through diagnostics. A single indicator is lit on
the treadmill console (if manager-enabled) when a belt check is required. This indicator light is located in the upper left
corner of the workout profi le window.
Automatic belt check reminder at 30,000 miles (48,000 km)
Notifi cation based on “Unable to Attain Target Speed” errors for specifi c user weights/speeds.
To check for notifi cations:
To enter Belt/Deck Info, press and hold the PAUSE key and press the CLEAR key twice. Continue to hold down the
PAUSE key until the MESSAGE CENTER displays the words “SERVICE MENU”. Use the TIME UP and DOWN arrow keys
to navigate to the INFORMATION Menu. Then access the “Belt / Deck Information” submenu.
NOTE: Notifi cations are automatically cleared once they have been displayed.
