  If your ProForm Treadmill turns off during use, check the reset/off circuit breaker. If it has tripped, wait five minutes and then press the switch back in. Also, ensure the power cord is securely plugged in. If it is, unplug it, wait five minutes, and then plug it back in. Try removing and reinserting the key from the console. If the treadmill still won’t run, please see the front cover of this manual.

  If the incline on your ProForm Treadmill isn't changing correctly, try recalibrating the incline system. With the key in the console, press one of the Incline buttons. While the incline is changing, remove the key. After a few seconds, re-insert the key. The treadmill will automatically rise to the maximum incline level and then return to the minimum level.

Why does my ProForm STYLE 8000 walking belt slow down when I walk on it?

  If your ProForm Treadmill's walking belt slows down when you walk on it, ensure you're not using an inadequate extension cord. If an extension cord is necessary, use only a 3-conductor, 1 mm[2] (14-gauge) cord that is no longer than 1.5 m (5 ft.). Also, the walking belt might be overtightened. To correct this, remove the key and unplug the power cord. Use the hex key to turn both rear roller bolts counterclockwise by 1/4 of a turn. When properly tightened, you should be able to lift each edge of the belt 2 to 3 inches (5 to 7 cm) off the walking platform. Keep the belt centered. Plug the power cord back in, insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat until the belt is properly tightened.

To disable it, press and hold the Stop button for a few seconds. If the displays are still lit, refer to THE INFORMATION MODE on page 16 to turn off the demo mode.

Avoid overtightening the belt. Plug the power cord back in, insert the key, and run the treadmill for a few minutes. Repeat this process until the walking belt is centered. If the walking belt slips when you walk on it, start by removing the key and unplugging the power cord. Use the hex key to turn both rear roller bolts clockwise by 1/4 of a turn.
