BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT

WARM-UP
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Warming up is an important part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following warm- up and cool-down exercises:

INNER THIGH STRETCH
Sit with the soles of your feet together with your knees pointing outward. Pull your feet as close into your groin as possible. Gently push your knees towards the floor. Hold for 15 counts.

HAMSTRING STRETCH
Sit with your right leg extended. Rest the sole of your left foot against your right inner thigh. Stretch toward your toe as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts. Relax and then repeat with the left leg extended.

HEAD ROLL
Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, and finally, drop your head to your chest for one count.

SHOULDER LIFT
Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift your left shoulder up for one count as you lower your right shoulder. Repeat this action for a few minutes.

CALF-ACHILLES STRETCH
Lean against a wall with your left leg in front of the right and your arms forward. Keep your right leg straight and the left foot on the floor; then bend the left leg and lean forward by moving your hips toward the wall. Hold, then repeat on the other side for 15 counts.

SIDE STRETCH
Open your arms to the side and continue lifting them until they are over your head. Reach your right arm as far upward toward the ceiling as you can for one count. Feel the stretch up your right side. Repeat this action with your left arm.

TOE TOUCH
Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15 counts.

USE THE PRODUCT

TRAINING
If you are a beginner, start by training for several days at a gentle pace; don’t push yourself, and rest if necessary. Gradually increase the frequency and duration of sessions. Ensure the room in which you are exercising is well- ventilated.

STRETCHING/WARMING UP: GENTLE E ORT FOR A MINIMUM OF 10 MINUTES
To maintain fitness or for rehabilitation, train every day for at least 10 minutes. This type of exercise provides a good, gentle workout for muscles and joints and can be used as a warm-up activity before more intense physical exercise. To develop muscle tone in the legs, choose a steeper incline and increase the duration of the exercise.

AEROBIC EXERCISE FOR WEIGHT LOSS: MODERATE E ORT FOR 35 TO 60 MINUTES
This type of training is an e active way of burning calories. There is no point in pushing yourself unduly; for the best results, the most important thing is the frequency of exercise (at least 3 times a week) and the duration of the session (35 to 60 minutes). Exercise at average intensity (moderate e ort so you are not out of breath). In order to lose weight, as well as take regular physical exercise, it’s essential to follow a balanced diet.

AEROBIC TRAINING FOR ENDURANCE: SUSTAINED E ORT FOR 20 TO 40 MINUTES
This type of exercise helps strengthen the heart muscle and improves your respiratory health. Exercise at least 3 times a week at a steady pace (rapid breathing). As your training progresses, you will be able to maintain this e ort for longer and at an improved pace. Training at a faster pace (anaerobic and in the red zone) is reserved for athletes and requires special preparation.

COOL DOWN
After each training session, walk slowly for a few minutes to bring your body gradually to rest. This cool-down phase helps your cardiovascular and respiratory systems, blood circulation and muscles return to normal. It also helps to eliminate side acts such as the accumulation of lactic acid which is one of the major causes of muscle pain (cramps and stiffness).

STRETCHING
Stretching after exercise reduces muscle sti ness caused by lactic acid accumulation and stimulates blood circulation.

MAINTENANCE

ATTENTION:
For procedures that you are not comfortable with or have the tools or experience for, have the unit serviced by a service centre or qualified technician. • To prevent electrical shock, switch OFF and unplug the equipment before cleaning or performing any maintenance tasks. • Before each use, check the running belt for wear.

CLEANING

The equipment can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives, solvents or harsh chemicals. Be careful not to get excessive moisture on the display panel as this may damage it and create an electrical hazard.

After each use, wipe the unit of any sweat, dirt or liquids. Pay extra attention to the edges of the belt, where it meets the running boards on each side of the running belt – keeping this area clean will help prolong the life of the unit and maintain its performance. Keep the equipment, especially the display console, out of direct sunlight to prevent damage to the screen.

MAINTENANCE

BELT LUBRICATION
Treadmill lubrication helps maintain performance and prolongs equipment life. Depending on the hours of use per week you will need to lubricate the treadmill more or less regularly.

To apply lubricant:

Raise the edge of the treadmill so that the running surface is exposed.
Place several drops of lubricant along the center of the running surface.
Wait a few minutes before using the tape for the silicone oil to set.

Lubrication table:

USE/WEEK	TEMPORALITY
Less than 3h	Every 5 months
From 4h to 7h	Every 2 months
More than 8h	Every month

NOTE: Do not over-lubricate. Clean excess lubricant from the treadmill. Only use silicone oil.

BELT ALIGNMENT
To improve the use of the belt, it can be adjusted if a deviation in direction is noticed after continuous use due to unconscious leg pressure. To do this, adjust the bolts at the back of the base with the Allen key provided as shown in the picture below. To make the correction, the treadmill must run at a speed of 8-10km/h.

If the treadmill runs to the left, turn the left adjustment screw 1/4 turn clockwise.
If the belt moves to the right, turn the right adjustment screw 1/4 turn clockwise.
If the treadmill slips during use, turn it off and unplug the treadmill. Using the Allen key provided, turn the left and right rear roller adjustment screws 1/4 turn clockwise, then turn the main power switch back on and run the treadmill at a speed of 8-10 km/h. Run over the belt to determine if the belt is still slipping. Repeat this procedure until the belt no longer slips.

NOTE: The belt should not be too tight as this can cause noise and possible damage to the motor.
