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 front cover of this manual.

PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge suppressor, and that the surge suppressor

is plugged into a properly grounded outlet (see page 10). Use only a single-outlet surge suppres-
sor that meets all of the specifications described on page 10. Important: The treadmill is not com-
patible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

b. Make sure that the key is fully inserted into the console.

c. Check the reset/off circuit breaker located on the frame near the

power cord. If the switch protrudes 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 (see 1. c. 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 and then reinsert it.

PROBLEM: The displays of the console do not function properly

SOLUTION: a. Remove the key from the console and UNPLUG THE

POWER CORD. Next, remove the screws from the hood
and carefully remove the hood. Locate the Reed Switch
(42) and the Magnet (24) on the left side of the Pulley (40).
Turn the Pulley until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed
Switch.

Make sure that the gap between the Magnet

and the Reed Switch is about 1/8”. If necessary, use a
slotted screwdriver to move the Reed Switch slightly.
Reattach the Hood, making sure that the Screws are in-
serted into the same holes from which they were removed.
Run the treadmill for a few minutes to check for a correct
speed reading.
