This addendum accompanies your equipment documentation and is additional
information concerning the heart rate features for your equipment and console.
Important
The heart rate features are intended for reference only. They may not be accurate
for every user or at every speed and are not intended for use as a medical device.
Holding the heart rate handle touch sensor while exercising at higher intensity
may also decrease accuracy of the heart rate reading and is not recommended.

CHOOsE A WORKOUT
• Determine your level of tness: beginner,
intermediate, or advanced.
• Determine your immediate goal: endurance
training, cardio-conditioning, or weight loss.
If you are a beginner, start with a cardio-conditioning
workout to gradually adjust your body to the demands of
exercise. Over a recommended eight-week period, you will
increase your endurance and strength.
For all tness levels, plan to exercise at an appropriately
challenging pace for 20 to 30 minutes a day. Wear a chest
strap to monitor your heart rate. Supplement your plans
with tness workouts from the Precor web site
(www.precor.com). The Precor web site also provides
expert advice to help you reach your tness goals.
MONITOR YOUR HEART RATE
The SmartRate and heart rate displays provide visual cues
that help you adjust your tness routine to reach your
goals. Use these features to keep your heart rate within
the target zones.
Wear a Chest Strap
During a workout, the heart rate features appear on
the display when you wear a chest strap. To receive an
accurate reading, the chest strap needs to be in direct
contact with your skin. After you put on the chest strap,
face the display console for a minimum of 15 seconds. This
allows the receiver in the console to recognize the signal
from the chest strap.
1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap
water (Diagram A).
IMPORTANT: Do not use deionized water. It does
not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct
electrical impulses.
2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest.
The strap should feel snug, not restrictive
(Diagram B).
3. Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies
horizontally across your chest, and is centered in
the middle of your chest (Diagram C).
When these steps are complete, you are ready to view
your heart rate.
Touch-Sensitive Handrail Grips
Several Precor products incorporate touch-sensitive
heart rate grips on the handrails. If you prefer to use
the touch-sensitive handrail grips, use both hands.
Make sure both hands are moist (not dry) and avoid
grasping the sensors too tightly.
Note: For the best heart rate monitoring results, wear a
chest strap.
sMARTRATE® FEATUREs
When you begin an exercise session, a blinking
segment in the SmartRate display appears if you
entered your age during the setup phase. The blinking
segment indicates the current zone of your heart rate.
The calculation used for the heart rate target zone is
your maximum aerobic heart rate:
207 - (your age x 0.67), multiplied by a percentage.
For the ideal weight loss range, your heart rate should
remain between 55% and 69% of your maximum
aerobic heart rate. To improve your overall
cardiovascular and respiratory tness level, maintain
your heart rate between 70% and 85% of your
maximum aerobic heart rate. For the greatest benets,
maintain your heart rate in either zone for 30 minutes or
more at least three times a week.
CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed
85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate or go
above your target zone (Diagram D).
COOl DOWN AFTER YOUR WORKOUT
Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout
because it helps reduce muscle stiness and
soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the
working muscles. Cooling down for at least three
minutes helps provide a smooth transition that allows
your heart rate to return to its normal, non-exercising state.

Measuring Your
Heart Rate
Precor cardio equipment can measure your heart rate
in one of two ways:
If you have a chest strap (for use with a fitness
watch, for example), the equipment can receive
the heart rate signal the strap transmits.
You can grasp the heart rate sensors on the
handlebars.
When the equipment detects your heart rate, the
following things happen:
The heartbeat indicator (icon) begins to flash.
After a few seconds, the console displays your
current heart rate.
If SmartRate is on, a second heartbeat icon
appears over your current heart rate zone (refer to
Using SmartRate).
Before you start working out, make sure you know your
maximum heart rate. Then, as you work out, be sure to
reduce the intensity of your exercise if you reach or
exceed that number.
CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed 85% of
your maximum heart rate.
You can use the following formula, provided by the
American College of Sports Medicine®, to figure out
your maximum heart rate:
Maximum heart rate = 207 – (your age × 0.67)
Your typical target heart rate is 70% of your maximum
rate.
Measuring Your Heart Rate
29
If SmartRate is on, you will see a heart rate indicator
(
) over the SmartRate zone bar during your workout.
This indicator shows where your current heart rate
falls within the active zone. You can then change the
intensity of the workout to stay within the zone you
want.
Figure 16: SmartRate zone bar
To make sure that SmartRate works correctly, you
need to make sure of the following things:
Your age is properly set in your user profile.
The equipment can read your heart rate properly. If
you are using a chest strap, you must moisten and
position it properly. If you are using the
touch-sensitive grips on the equipment, you must
maintain contact with both grips for five to ten
seconds.
Note: SmartRate is on by default, but it is not available
if the Guest account is selected.
To turn on SmartRate:
1. During your workout, touch Options.
2. At the Options screen, touch SmartRate On.
3. Touch Back to return to your workout.
Note: There is only one SmartRate button on the
Options screen. If SmartRate is currently on, the button
is named SmartRate Off. If SmartRate is currently off,
the button is named SmartRate On.
Precision Series / Energy Series Treadmill Owner's Manual: TRM 445 / 243 30
Getting Accurate Heart Rate
Readings
To work reliably, heart rate sensors need to be
securely in contact with your skin. Use the following
guidelines to make sure they are.
To attach a chest strap:
WARNING
Signals used by the chest strap
transmitter (or heart rate strap) may
interfere with pacemakers or other
implanted devices. Contact your
doctor, the manufacturer of the chest
strap, and the manufacturer of the
implanted device before using a chest
strap transmitter.
Important: Precor cardio equipment works with 5 KHz
chest straps only. It does not work with Bluetooth
®
-based
chest straps, which are designed for use with mobile apps.
Note: To receive an accurate reading, the strap needs
to be in direct contact with the skin on the lower
sternum (just below the bust line for women).
1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap
water. Refer to the following figure.
Note: Do not use deionized water. It does not have
the proper minerals and salts to conduct electrical
impulses.
Figure 17: Moisten chest strap
Measuring Your Heart Rate
31
2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest.
The strap should feel snug, not restrictive. Refer to
the following figure.
Figure 18: Adjust chest strap
3. Make sure that the chest strap is right side up, lies
horizontally across your chest, and is centered in
the middle of your chest. Refer to the following
figure.
Figure 19: Fasten chest strap
4. After you put on the chest strap, face the display
console for a few seconds. This allows the receiver
in the console to recognize the signal from the
chest strap.
If you use the touch-sensitive grips, be sure to grasp
them securely (but not tightly—use a loose, cupping
hold) on both sides. You may need to wait for 15 to 20
seconds before your heart rate is displayed.
Important: The touch-sensitive grips work well for most
people. However, because of their body chemistry or
erratic heartbeats, a few people cannot use the grips. If this
applies to you, a chest strap may provide better results.
However, do not grasp the touch-sensitive grips while
wearing a chest strap—using both at the same time can
cause erratic heart rate readings.
Measuring Your Heart Rate
33
Troubleshooting Heart Rate
Readings
If your heart rate readings look wrong, or if you do not
see any readings at all, check the following list for
possible causes. If the solutions in this list do not solve
the problem, contact your dealer or Precor Customer
Support.
No Heartbeat Icon or Heart Rate Display
The heart rate sensors may not be in secure contact
with your skin. Try the following solutions.
For touch-sensitive grips:
Make sure that your hands grasp the
touch-sensitive grips continuously and firmly (but
not tightly) for at least five to ten seconds.
Check that the palms of your hands are not
covered with any sort of salve, rub, or lotion. If they
are, wash them.
Check that your hands are not too dry. If they are,
moisten them slightly.
For a chest strap:
Make sure the strap is fastened, positioned, and
moistened correctly.
Make sure the strap is compatible with the
equipment. It must be a 5 kHz strap. Heart rate
straps that function at other frequencies, and
Bluetooth-based straps, are not compatible with
this equipment.
The Displayed Heart Rate Is Wrong Or
SmartRate Doesn’t Work
The touch-sensitive grips may not be making secure
contact. Try the following solutions:
Make sure that your hands are clean, slightly
moist, and positioned as described earlier in this
table.
Try using a chest strap instead of the grips.
If you are trying to use the grips and an active chest
strap at the same time, choose one or the other. Either
do not grasp the touch-sensitive grips, or remove or
turn off the chest strap.
Precision Series / Energy Series Treadmill Owner's Manual: TRM 445 / 243 34
Choosing and
Completing a
Workout
The instructions shown earlier in this manual (refer to
Getting Started) provide the simplest possible steps for
getting started with your new fitness equipment. In
most cases, you’ll want to start with one of the
preprogrammed workouts available on the equipment.
This chapter explains how to select a workout and
describes the changes you can make as it progresses.
Note: If you’re signed in under your user profile, you
can save your completed workout as a personal
favorite and use it again later (refer to Finishing Your
Workout). If you’ve made any adjustments to the
intensity of the workout, your changes will be stored as
well.
The human body is extremely efficient. If it makes the
same motion regularly over many days or weeks, it
learns to make that motion with less and less effort.
This process, called muscle adaptation, has one
drawback—the longer you stick to the same workout,
the less good that workout does you.
To prevent muscle adaptation from setting in as you
work out, try different kinds of workouts on different
days. By keeping your muscles guessing, you’ll keep
your energy use up, promoting faster weight loss and
better conditioning.
Precision Series / Energy Series Treadmill Owner's Manual: TRM 445 / 243 36
Choosing a Workout
When you start your workout, the following options
are available on the home screen:

Maintenance
71
Cleaning the Equipment
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside
the hood and base of the treadmill. However, for
efficient operation, the treadmill relies on low friction.
To keep the friction low, the unit’s running belt, staging
platforms, and internal mechanisms must be as clean
as possible.
Precor recommends the treadmill be cleaned before
and after each workout to remove dust, dirt, water, and
sweat. Use mild soap and water to dampen a soft cloth
and wipe all exposed surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor
Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on
any part of the treadmill, and remove any accumulated
sweat from the treadmill after use. Allow the treadmill to
dry completely before using it again.
Frequently vacuum the floor underneath the unit to
prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt, which can
affect the smooth operation of the unit. Use a soft
nylon scrub brush to clean the running belt.
Storing the Chest Strap
Store your chest strap in a place where it remains free
of dust, dirt, and moisture, such as in a closet or
drawer. Be sure to protect the chest strap from
extremes in temperature. Do not store it in a place that
may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F (0° C).
To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth
dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface
thoroughly with a clean towel.
Maintenance
73
5. Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe
the belt for a few minutes. The belt should be
centered on the running belt. If the belt drifts off
center, you must make adjustments (refer to
Adjusting the Running Belt).
Important: Failure to align the belt may cause the belt
to tear or fray, which is not covered by the Precor
Limited Warranty.
6. To stop the running belt, press the STOP switch.
7. Turn the treadmill off.
Adjusting the Running Belt
If you are unsure about adjusting the running belt, call
Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
CAUTION: For your safety, use the power switch to turn
Off the treadmill before making any adjustments. Do not
adjust the running belt when someone is standing on the
unit.
To adjust the running belt:
1. Locate the right belt adjustment bolt in the rear
end cap of the treadmill. Refer to the following
figure.
Figure 38: Location of the adjustment bolt
Precision Series / Energy Series Treadmill Owner's Manual: TRM 445 / 243 74
To determine left and right, stand at the rear of the
treadmill and face the display. Make all belt
adjustments on the right rear corner bolt using the
hex key provided.
– If the belt is off center to the LEFT, turn the
adjusting bolt ¼ turn counterclockwise, which
moves the running belt to the right.
– If the belt tracks off center to the RIGHT, turn
the bolt ¼ turn clockwise; this moves the belt to
the left.
Important: Do not turn the adjusting bolt more than
¼ turn at a time. Overtightening the bolt can damage
the treadmill.
2. Recheck the alignment of the running belt.
Long-Term Storage
When the equipment is not in use for any length of
time, turn it off. Make sure that the power cord is
unplugged from its power source and is positioned so
that it will not become damaged or interfere with
people, furniture, or other equipment.

Checking the Alignment
Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and ensures smooth
operation. Realigning the belt takes a few simple adjustments. If you are unsure
about this procedure, call Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
CAUTION: Special care must be taken when aligning the running belt. Turn Off the
treadmill while adjusting or working near the rear roller. Remove any loose clothing and
tie back your hair. Be very careful to keep your fingers and any other object clear of the
belt and rollers, especially in front of the roller and behind the deck. The treadmill will
not stop immediately if an object becomes caught in the belt or rollers.
To check the alignment:
1. The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Make sure that the running surface is
level before aligning or adjusting the running belt. For more information, see
Leveling the Treadmill.
2. Connect the power plug to an appropriate dedicated circuit and turn the unit
On.
3. Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.
Note: If needed, enter the password. Refer to your owner’s manual. The
running belt starts automatically after a 3-second countdown appears on the
display.
4. Increase the treadmill belt speed until the display shows a speed of 3 mph (5
kph).
CAUTION: If you hear any chafing or see that the running belt appears to be getting
damaged, stop the running belt immediately by pressing the red STOP button.
Contact Precor Customer Support.
5. Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt for a few minutes.
The belt should run centered along the running bed. If the belt drifts off center,
you will need to make adjustments. Refer to the next section.
Important: If the belt needs alignment, make the adjustments at once. Failure to
align the belt may cause the belt to tear or fray, which is not covered by the Precor
Limited Warranty.
6. To stop the running belt, press the red STOP button.
7. Turn the treadmill Off.
Adjusting the Running Belt
If you are unsure about adjusting the running belt, contact Precor Customer
Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
CAUTION: For your safety, use the power switch to turn Off the treadmill before
making any adjustments. Do not adjust the running belt when someone is standing on
the unit.
To adjust the running belt:
1. Locate the right belt adjustment bolt in the rear end cap of the treadmill.
Figure 24: Belt adjustment bolt location
2. To determine left and right, stand at the rear of the treadmill and face the
display. Make all belt adjustments on the right rear corner bolt using the
6 mm hex key.
– If the belt is off center to the LEFT, turn the adjusting bolt ¹₄ turn
counterclockwise, which moves the running belt to the right.
– If the belt is off center to the RIGHT, turn the bolt ¹₄ turn clockwise,
which moves the belt to the left.
Important: Do not turn the adjusting bolt more than
¹₄
turn at a time.
Overtightening the bolt can damage the treadmill.
3. Recheck the alignment of the running belt.
Treadmill 200 Series Assembly Guide 16
Breaking in the Equipment
Precor equipment does not require an actual break-in period. However, moving
components such as belts, gears, and bearings can settle while the equipment is
being stored or shipped. This can cause the equipment to operate with a small
amount of roughness or noise when it starts up for the first time.
The equipment usually returns to smooth operation after a day or two of normal
use. If it does not, contact your dealer for assistance. For more information, refer
to your owner’s manual.
