  If your Life Fitness electronics have no power, first, check that the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position. If that's not the issue, ensure the treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 20 amp circuit and verify power at the outlet using a voltmeter; reset the circuit breaker if necessary. Inspect the power connection at both the wall outlet and the machine. If the line cord is damaged, it should be replaced.

(0.9 m) of the heart rate receiver. * Make sure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is properly attached to the user’s chest and move closer to the heart rate receiver inside the console.
