Product Specifications:

The Cybex LCX 425T treadmill has 2 distinct display consoles. The upper one reports on distance, calories, calories per hour, METs, pace and heart rate. The lower display shows time, speed and distance. A wireless heart rate transmitter is available to complement the treadmill's inbuilt receiver. The console also has a multi-colour LED display that provides colour-coded feedback. For safety, the machine has a lanyard and key set-up that stops the treadmill instantly should you fall.

The deck has the ability to flex at the point of impact, rather than along its entire length. This means increased stability. A 15" personal entertainment monitor is available as an option. For home use, the machine carries a 10 years parts, frame and motor, along with 3 years labour. If used in a light commercial setting, the warranty is 10 years on the frame, 3 years on the motor and 3 years on the belt, deck and labour.
