2.4 Care and maintenance
Belt tension
The belt must be tensioned if it slips during usage. Your treadmill is equipped with
tension bolts that can be reached from the back of the treadmill. Before you tension
the belt, start the treadmill and set the speed to 4.8 km/h (3 mph). With the help of a
6 mm Allen key, which is included in the hardware bag, turn the right and left tension
bolts a half rotation clockwise.
Once you have set both sides with a half rotation, test the treadmill to see if it slips any
more. If it still slips, repeat the step and test it again.
If you turn one side more than the other, the belt will drift o the side and must be
centered /aligned again. Do NOT tighten MORE THAN two full rotations on each side.
If it still slips, please contact your contract partner.
NOTE: An over-tensioning of the belt may cause unnecessary friction and wear on the
belt, motor and electronic system.
Aligning the running mat
Make sure that the running mat is always centered on your treadmill. The running
style and uneven oors are two things that may cause a drifting of the running mat.
Small adjustments to the bolts (on the back of the treadmill) are required if the belt
moves away from the center.
1. Press “START and increase the speed of the treadmill to 4.8 km/h (3 mph).
2. Stand behind the treadmill in order to determine which direction it moves away
from.
3. If the belt drifts o to the left, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise and the right
adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise (see gure 1).
4. If the belt drifts o to the right, turn the left adjusting bolt 1/4 counterclockwise and
the right adjusting bolt 1/4 clockwise (see gure 2).
5. Watch the belt run for about two minutes. Repeat steps 3 to 5 if necessary.
TX40e
17
Belt lubrication
Use only 100% silicone and avoid silicone sprays that contain additives and oil
distillates. An ounce of silicone should be used per application.
The running belt should be lubricated every three months (independent of usage) or
every 50 operating hours depending on what occurs rst. Even if the treadmill is not
used, the silicone will evaporate after some time and the belt dries out.
Note: Even though the running belt was already lubricated by the manufacturer,
the running mat should be lubricated before rst use - just in case the belt dried out
within the production time and the purchase date.
Lubricate the silicone on the underside of the running belt. Do NOT apply it to the
running surface. To do this, put the treadmill upright and apply the silicone to the
inner side of the belt. Spray the silicone downwards and across the belt. Turn the belt
around half-way and repeat the step. About an ounce of silicone should be used for
application.
Note: When you do the belt lubrication, make sure that the treadmill is on a surface
that can be cleaned easily. After you have lubricated the belt, remove excess silicone
from belt and frame.
Move the belt to the right Move the belt to the left

Innovative characteristics
ENERGY SAVING MODE
The energy saving mode turns o the power of the treadmill - except for a weakly
illuminated scan lighting. The power consumption here is also stopped below 0.1
watts.
BLUETOOTH
The treadmill has an integrated Bluetooth module in order to support the Strength
Master apps. These can be downloaded in the Apple Store or on Google Play (optional).
eFOLD FUNCTION
eFold is a simple and electronic folding system. It helps you fold and unfold the
treadmill.
INTELLI-GUARD™
This treadmill is equipped with the Intelli-Guard safety function. This function detects
when you stop running on the treadmill and stops the treadmill automatically due
to safety reasons in order to avoid falls and the resulting injuries. The Intelli-Guard
function is triggered when the treadmill detects that you are no longer walking or
running on it.
NOTE:
The Intelli-Guard function is automatically removed when the speed on the treadmill
is below 1.0 mph (1.6 km/h). If you are in this speed level, the step sign will be
illuminated. When the sign is illuminated, the treadmill will not stop automatically.
If the speed is more than 1.0 mph (1.6km/h), Intelli-Guard is rst activated after 25
counted steps.

4.2 Button functions
NOTE:
After 20 seconds, the console emits a beeping sound every ve seconds and the
treadmill will then stop automatically. These sounds serve as a reminder that the
running mat will soon stop. If you are still on the treadmill, please put your feet on the
side rails and prepare for the running mat to stop. The Intelli-Guard function neither
replaces the usage of your safety key nor appropriate measures to stop the treadmill
when it is not being used.
INTELLI-STEP™
The treadmill has the INTELLI-STEP counting function. This function records all
resistance on the running mat when you step on it. There are dierent factors that
inuence the accuracy of this function, for example, running style, weight and habits
of the user.
Example: The data of a light user and specically a light user running with an incline is
more dicult to record for INTELLI-STEP. The higher the incline, the more dicult it is
for this function to record the steps. It also applies to slow speeds. In summary, it can
be stated that INTELLI-STEP represents a great function for users who place value on
a step count program (walking or running). However, it depends on many variables in
regards to accuracy. The accuracy of the count depends on individual characteristics
as well as variables in regards to the treadmill usage.

After you have selected the program and the speed control, the speed will change during
training, whereby it follows the respective program prole. If you select the incline control
for the program, the incline changes depending on the respective incline prole of the
program during training. It applies for all programs except for user-dened programs. It
allows for the advance selection between the speed and incline program.
Sport training
P-01: Long, slow distance
Long, slow distance: (40-minute default)
Long, slow distance is great training for everyone! Beginners can easily begin their training
program. The training should be done at least once a week in order to maximize the
complete development of cardiovascular endurance. Training sessions with long, slow
distance are also wonderful for advanced users who do this training on days that follow a
harder, more intense training session.
P-02: Short interval
Short interval: (20-minute default)
Short intervals are ideal for beginners who would like to prot from the benets of interval
training, but are not yet prepared for harder and longer intense interval training. Short
intervals are also ideal for advanced users in order to develop their speed and anaerobic
condition. Short interval exercises are particularly fun after days with exercises with a longer
duration and slow speed. Remember that it is important to vary your training i ntensity
and duration in order to maximize your tness development. Make sure to integrate a few
interval training sessions in your training program - at least one to two times a week.
TX40e
34
P-03: Moderate interval
Moderate interval: (30-minute default)
As soon as you complete regular training and you can determine an improvement in
your general tness, you are ready for training in the moderate intensity interval”. Start
with a low intensity and increase your training intensity to the level that represents
a challenge, but is not too dicult. Remember that for this training, you change
between a recovery interval followed by a high intensity interval. You should feel
comfortable challenging yourself while training, because the next recovery interval is
waiting for you. This training improves your overall aerobic endurance and maximizes
your anaerobic tness.
P-04: Long interval
Long interval: (40-minute default)
Long interval exercises are ideal to maximize the calories burnt and to improve your
anaerobic tness - you can train harder on a level with higher intensity. Similar to
moderate intervals, you must remember that a recovery interval follows every
intensive interval. Thus, you can comfortably prepare for exercises with an increasingly
higher level.
TX40e
35
P-05: Negative interval -1
Negative interval -1: (30-minute default)
The negative interval -1 provides you with the benets of a training with an even
speed. Simultaneously, it motivates you to slowly reach an increasingly higher training
intensity. This allows for a slow decline in the training intensity. You can improve your
overall health and tness and motivate yourself in a comfortable manner to a higher
overall intensity of your training.
P-06: Negative interval -2
Negative interval -2: (30-minute default)
The negative interval -2 was designed in order to oer you training that begins with
a slight increase in the training intensity, continues the training with a set intensity
and nally ends with a progressive decrease in intensity. Training that is based on
an increase at the beginning and a decrease at the end of the training develops
your overall aerobic cardiovascular endurance. Training that includes a lowering of
intensity is also ideal to maximize the calories burnt - however, it is most suitable for a
longer duration, for example, 40 or 50 minutes.
TX40e
36
P-07: Fartlek
Fartlek: (30-minute default)
The varying training intensity with a constantly changing interval exercise, beginning
with a slow speed and increasing to a moderate to high speed, will enrich to your
training. Your training sessions can be completed faster than you can imagine,
whereby your body and your mind will be provided with excellent tness benets.
Brain research proves that a constantly varying intensity while training has many
benets for your entire brain tness. The body experiences wonderful growth in
anaerobic cardiovascular tness thanks to the increase of training intensity with
constantly varying intervals with a subsequent lowering of intensity.
Healthy lifestyle
P-08: Uphill
Uphill: (30-minute default)
Increase your training intensity gradually and with a lot of fun with the uphill
training. The goal of this training is to stimulate your body to improve your overall
cardiovascular tness and to maximize the muscle cell growth in the stressed muscles.
This uphill training was designed in order to start with a slow intensity, to increase it
constantly to a peak intensity and then to lower this again gradually. During the peak
intensity, you maximize your calories burnt whereby your body can train longer and
still prot from the higher intensity when you slowly decrease the intensity again and
return to the initial level.
TX40e
37
P-09: Pyramid climb
Pyramid climb: (30-minute default)
Gradual increases in intensity during training are ideal for stimulating your body to
improve overall cardiovascular tness, whereby the muscle cell growth in the stressed
muscles is maximized. The pyramid climb was designed in order to begin with a
very slow speed and gradually increase intensity to the peak and nally to gradually
return to the initial level. During the peak intensity, you maximize your calories burnt
whereby your body can train longer and still prot from the higher intensity if you
slowly decrease the intensity again and return to the initial level.
P-10: Climb plateau
Climb plateau: (30-minute default)
The climb plateau training delivers you all of the advantages of consistent training,
but motivates you to maintain a higher, consistent intensity level. You can improve
your overall health and tness and simultaneously slowly and comfortably bring
yourself to a higher overall training intensity. Remember that if you simply use your
treadmill with the same speed and same training duration every day, your body will
only improve to the level that you have created. In order to improve your overall
health and tness, you always have to change your exercises so that you do not do
the same workout the entire week. Slowly increase your overall training intensity and
simultaneously your entire training duration.
TX40e
38
P-11: Ladder
Ladder: (30-minute default)
The biggest advantages of this exercise are the direct advantages for the heart and
cardiovascular system. The heart-health-ladder was designed in order to supply your
cardiovascular system with a series of progressively harder training intensities, which
improve your overall aerobic endurance and simultaneously stimulate your anaerobic
endurance. Remember that if you do this training, it may be challenging for a few
minutes. However, each increase was carefully planned so that recovery intervals
are also included after the highest intensity intervals. Thus, you will feel good during
training and you can motivate yourself to improve your cardiovascular tness.
P-12: Uphill interval
Uphill interval: (20-minute default)
Uphill intervals are unique, because they supply the body with the benets of interval
training as well as the additional benet of a gradual increase of the overall intensity of
the maximum interval during training. Start this training at a level that is comfortable
for you and constantly increase intensity during each maximum interval, whereby
you can motivate yourself every time to a somewhat higher intensity and be aware
of the following recovery intervals. With the help of this training, you can maximize
the calories burnt during each session with higher intensity and improve your overall
anaerobic tness.
TX40e
39
Weight control
P-13 Constant speed
Constant speed: (40-minute default)
Improve your tness and stimulate your body to burn more fat. Exercises with a
constant speed are great to help you improve your overall basic endurance. Most
exercises of this type have the objective of maintaining a set load level throughout
the entire exercise. You start the constant speed” training with a very slow speed
and increase this during training to a moderate speed. Your goal is to train in a low,
moderate to high, moderate intensity.
P-14: Long, slow distance
Long, slow distance: (40-minute default)
Long, slow distance is great training for everyone! Beginners can easily start the
training program, whereby they should train at least once a week in order to maximize
the growth of heart rate endurance. It is equally excellent for experienced users who
do this training on days following a harder, more intense training day.
TX40e
40
P-15: Cardio run
Cardio run: (20-minute default)
Cardio run is a training with a constant speed, however, with a higher intensity than
with the “long, slow distance training. Cardio run is more of a medium or raised
training session designed to motivate you to achieve a challenging, constant speed
and to maintain this speed throughout the entire training time. Cardio run is a great
training program if you want to prepare for a special event.
P-16: Short interval
Short interval: (20-minute default)
Research studies show that short interval exercises are ideal for those who want
to increase their weight reduction and improve their overall cardiovascular tness.
Varying intensities during training - from a moderate, slow stage to high intensity,
in a dened time - and the repetition of these units maximize your overall calories
burnt during training. Another advantage is that the user is not forced to maintain a
high intensity level throughout the entire training. The short recovery intervals allow
your body to do more successful training with high intensity throughout the entire
training.
TX40e
41
P-17: Uphill running
Uphill running: (30-minute default)
The uphill running program gradually increases the intensity of the training peaks with
a high intensity. The goal is to motivate the body to improve the overall cardiovascular
tness, whereby the muscle cell growth of the stressed muscles is maximized as well.
With this training, you start with a slow, comfortable speed and gradually increase it
to the peak intensity, followed by a quick decrease in intensity to a recovery interval.
The total calories consumption is maximized during peak intensity, whereby your
body can train for a longer period of time.

5 WORKOUT INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Heart rate measuring
Pulse measurement through hand sensors
The hand sensors integrated in the handles allow you to determine your heart rate.
You can measure your heart rate by lightly grasping the sensors with both hands at the
same time. Blood pressure changes occur due to the heartbeat. The sensors measure
the changes to the electric skin resistance caused by it. These values are then used to
create an average and are displayed on the screen of the console as a heart rate.
Note:
For some people, the skin resistance change caused by the heart rate is so minimal
that the measurements do not allow for usable values. Strong callus or sweat on the
hands may also impair a correct measurement. In such cases, the heart rate will not be
shown at all or only incorrectly.
If the measurement is incorrect or not taken at all, please check if it happens to only
one person or to several people. If the pulse display only does not work in a single
case, the equipment is not defective. In this case, we recommend using a chest strap
to achieve a permanently correct heart rate display.
CAUTION: Your training equipment is not a medical device. Dierent factors
may inuence the accuracy of the heart rate display. The heart rate display only
serves as a training aid.
Telemetric heart rate measuring
Your treadmill is already equipped with a heart rate receiver as standard. Using a chest
strap makes it possible for you to have a wireless heart rate measuring. This optimal
and ECG-precise type of measuring reads the heart rate directly from the skin through
a transmitting chest strap. The chest strap then sends the impulse to the receiver
integrated in the console.
Positioning the chest strap and moistening the electrodes:
Place the belt directly below the chest, while the transmitter should be placed on the
middle of the chest. The chest strap should sit comfortably, but not too loose. If the
belt is too loose, the contact to the electrodes may be disrupted or the belt may slip
while exercising. The transmitter turns on automatically once it is put on. In order to
TX40e
43
allow for a precise measuring, you should moisten the rubber electrodes. This is best
done with a special chest strap contact gel, which is also used for ultrasound scans.
Note:
If you have not been active in doing sports for a longer period of time, you should
rst go to your physician in order to discuss your training with them. You should also
contact your physician in advance in the event of heart problems, high/low blood
pressure and obesity.
Training with heart rate orientation
Heart rate orientation guarantees an extremely eective and healthy training. Through
your age and the following table, you can quickly and easily read and determine the
optimal pulse for your training. An acoustic alarm will sound if your heart rate exceeds
the set target heart rate. Which target heart rate is important for which training goal
can be found out in the following.
Fat burning (weight management): The main goal here is to burn deposits of fat. In
order to achieve this training goal, a low training intensity (approximately 55% of the
maximum heart rate) and a longer training period are required.
Cardiovascular training (cardio training): The primary goal is to increase endurance
and tness through an improved provision of oxygen through the cardiovascular
system. In order to achieve this training goal, medium intensity (approximately 75%
of the maximum heart rate) with a medium training period is required.
Anaerobic (maximum) load training: The main goal of maximum load training is to
improve recovery after short, intense loads in order to be able to quickly return to the
aerobic zone. In order to achieve this training goal, a high intensity (approximately
90% of the maximum heart rate) with short, intense load is required, which is followed
by a recovery phase in order to prevent muscle fatigue.
TX40e
44
Example:
For a 45-year-old man or woman, the maximum heart rate is 175 (220 - 45 = 175).
The fat burning target zone (55%) is at approximately 96 beats/min.
= (220 - age) x 0.55.
The cardio target zone (75%) is at approximately 131 beats/min.
= (220 - age) x 0.75.
The maximum heart rate for an anaerobic load training (90%) is at approximately
157 beats/min. = (220 - age) x 0.9.

5.2 10 tips for eective running training
1. Set goals
What would you like to achieve with your training? Weight regulation, improved
endurance, prevent risk of disease, more mobility, cardiovascular training, etc. In order
to achieve your long-term training goal, set individual partial goals, e. g., weekly or
monthly goals.
2. Concentration on training
Try to only dedicate yourself to your training unit and do not be distracted.
3. Correct movement
When you do the movement, you should start at a moderate speed and hold on
the handles if needed. The speed can then be increased gradually. The adjustment
of your natural running style will occur relatively quickly. Beginners and overweight
people should start with a walking program in order to not overload their joints in the
beginning.
4. Correct breathing / appropriate resistance level
Do not overexert yourself physically and mentally by starting with resistance levels
that are too high. Start slowly and increase the resistance steadily. Aim for regular and
calm breathing.
5. Keep yourself properly hydrated
Drink, drink, drink! Have a drinking bottle close by during your workout.
6. Sucient recovery periods
Allow your body and your muscles enough time to recover after your workout. Only a
relaxed muscle will be fully operational again.
7. Choose a diversied program
Dierent program functions of your training console support you in doing this. For
example, you can complete an interval, incline or step counting training session.
8. Creating the right workout
Every training session should have a warm-up phase, a cool-down phase and a
targeted stretching. It increases physical and mental performance and prevents
injuries and sore muscles.
TX40e
46
9. Workout journal
Keep a record of your training sessions. Note the date, resting pulse, active pulse, recovery
pulse, resistance level, time, distance, calories burnt and tness level.
10. Reward yourself
Do something good for you and your body after training or after achieving a partial goal.
Go to the sauna or a swimming pool. Mix a protein shake or enjoy a delicious salad.
5.3 Designing a workout
We recommend two to three training sessions a week. There should be a ve-minute
warm-up phase before every training. The training ends with a cool-down and targeted
stretching.
Warm-Up approx. ve min. Dynamic movement of larger muscle groups at
low intensity. The body core temperature rises
and the metabolism process starts quicker.

Error descriptions
Your tness equipment is developed for long-term, high-quality training. However,
should a problem arise, please rst read the operating instructions. For further
assistance, please contact your contract partner or call our service hotline. To ensure
your problem is solved as quickly as possible, please describe the defect as exactly as

a pure parts warranty applies, which does not include the repair, installation and
delivery costs.

• Home use: solely for private use in private households up to 3 hours per day
• Semi-professional use: up to 6 hours per day (e. g. rehabilitation centers, hotels,
clubs, company gyms)

Warranty service
Within the warranty period, equipment which develops faults as a result of material
or manufacturing defects, will be repaired or replaced at our discretion. Ownership
of equipment or parts of equipment which have been replaced is transferred to us.
The warranty period is not extended nor does a new warranty period begin following
repair or replacement under the warranty.
Warranty conditions
For the warranty to be valid, the following steps must be taken:
Please contact our customer service by email or phone. If the product under warranty
has to be sent in for repair, the seller bears costs. After expiry of the warranty, the buyer
bears the costs of transport and insurance. If the fault is covered by our warranty, you
will receive a new or repaired equipment in return.
Warranty claims are invalid in case of damage resulting from:
• misuse or improper handling
• environmental inuences (moisture, heat, electrical surge, dust, etc.)
• failure to follow the current safety measures for the equipment
• failure to follow the operating instructions
• use of force (e. g. hitting, kicking, falling)
• interventions which were not carried out by one of our authorized service centers
• unauthorized repair attempts

Please make sure that you are able to provide the appropriate receipt when claiming
on your warranty. So that we can clearly identify the model of your equipment, and
for the purposes of our quality control, you will need to give the serial number of
your equipment, when contacting the service team. Where possible please have your
