Troubleshooting & Quick Fixes
Incline is stuck / Reset the incline motor / Incline is not working
Calibrating the incline
If the incline is stuck or no longer responds correctly, you can reset the incline motor as follows:
- Press and hold the Start and Stop buttons at the same time.
- Then also press the Incline button.
The incline mode will now automatically start calibration. During this process, the incline moves all the way up and then back down.
Note:
Please do not interrupt this process, and make sure there are no objects on or underneath the treadmill.
