You'll find information about using your exercise
equipment and what makes for efficient training at
Tunturi's website at www.tunturi.com.
ABOUT THE EXERCISE ENVIRONMENT
•
Make sure the exercise environment has adequate
ventilation. To avoid catching cold, do not exercise in a
draughty place.
•
Place the treadmill on a firm, level surface. Allow
200x100 cm of clearance behind the treadmill and 100
cm on either side and in front of the treadmill. Make
sure that children and pets stay away from this area
while the treadmill is in use.
•
We recommend that the equipment is placed on a
protective base.
ABOUT USING THE EQUIPMENT
•
Always unplug the treadmill from the electrical outlet
after each training session.
•
Only one person may use the equipment at a time.
•
Keep hands clear of any moving parts. Never place
hands, feet or any other objects under the treadmill
•
Never leave the treadmill unattended when plugged
in.
•
Wear appropriate clothing and shoes when exercising.
Make sure your shoelaces are properly tied. To avoid
injury and unnecessary wear on your treadmill, be sure
your shoes are free of any debris such as gravel and small
pebbles.
BEGINNING AN EXERCISE SESSION
•
To avoid muscular pain and strain, begin and end
each workout by stretching.
•
Stand on the landing rails to the left and right of the
running belt. Do not stand on the running belt.
•
Begin each workout at a low speed, and gradually
increase your speed and/or treadmill elevation to a
comfortable level according to your condition.
•
Always hold the handrail for support when getting on
or off the treadmill and when changing the speed during
exercise. Do not jump off the running belt while it is
moving!
•
To avoid numbness and pain in the neck, shoulder
and back area, maintain an upright posture. Try to run
in the middle of the track, within comfortable reach of
the console.
•
If you encounter any operational faults during
exercise, grip the handlebar for support and stand on
the landing rails to the left and right of the running
belt. Turn the power switch off and see the instructions
under Malfunctions.
•
If you experience nausea, dizziness or other abnormal

symptoms while exercising, stop your workout at once
and consult a physician.
FINISHING AN EXERCISE SESSION
•
Finish each workout by gradually reducing the speed.
Don't forget to stretch at the end of the workout.
•
Never leave the safety key in the treadmill.
•
Use the main power switch to turn the unit off.
•
Unplug the electrical cord from the wall outlet and
from the treadmill.
•
If necessary clean the treadmill from sweat with a
damp cloth. Do not use solvents.
•
Store the electrical cord where it is clear from all
pathways and out of childrens' reach.
HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you'll get the best results by
training at the right level of effort, and the best measure
is your own heart rate. The most reliable heart rate
measurement is achieved with a telemetric device, in
which the electrodes of the transmitter fastened to the
chest transmit the pulses from the heart to the console
by means of an electromagnetic field.
If you are fitted with a pacemaker, please consult
NOTE!
a physician before using a wireless heart rate monitor.
If you want to measure your heart rate this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes
on the transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten
the transmitter just below the chest with the elastic
belt, firmly enough so that the electrodes remain in
contact with the skin while exercising, but not so tight
that normal breathing is prevented. If you wear the
transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten the shirt
slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the
shirt. The transmitter automatically transmits the heart
rate reading to the console up to a distance of about 1
m.
If the electrode surfaces are not moist, the heart-rate
reading will not appear on the display. If the electrodes
are dry, they must be moistened again. Allow the
electrodes warm up properly to ensure accurate heart
rate measurement. If there are several telemetric
heart rate measurement devices next to each other,
the distance between them should be at least 1.5 m.
Similarly, if there is only one receiver and several
transmitters in use, only one person with a transmitter
should be within transmission range. The transmitter is
switched to an active state only when it is being used for
measurement. Sweat and other moisture can, however,
keep the transmitter in an active state and waste battery
energy. Therefore it is important to dry the electrodes
carefully after use.
When selecting training attire, please note that some
fibers used in clothes (e.g. polyester, polyamide) create
static electricity, which may prevent reliable heart rate
measurement.
