SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND TIPS

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that all users of this treadmill have read the Owner’s Manual and are familiar with warnings and safety precautions.

This treadmill has a user maximum capacity of 275 pounds.

The treadmill should only be used on a level surface and is intended for indoor use only. The treadmill should not be placed in a garage, patio, or near water and should never be used while you are wet. KEYS recommends a treadmill mat be placed under the treadmill to protect floor or carpet and for easier cleaning.

Follow safety information in regards to plugging in your treadmill. Keep the power cord away from the incline wheels and do not run the power cord underneath your treadmill. Do not operate the treadmill with a damaged or frayed power cord.

Wear comfortable, good-quality walking or running shoes and appropriate clothing. Do not use the treadmill with bare feet, sandals, socks or stockings.

Always straddle the belt and allow it to start moving before stepping onto the belt.

Hold on to handrails when adjusting speed, incline, or other controls.

Always examine your treadmill before using to ensure all parts are in working order.

Allow the belt to fully stop before dismounting.

Pets should never be allowed near or on the treadmill.

Do not leave children unsupervised near or on the treadmill.

Never operate the treadmill where oxygen is being administered, or where aerosol products are being used.

Never insert any object or body parts into any opening.

For safety and to prevent damage to your treadmill, no more than one person should use the treadmill at a time.

Always unplug the treadmill before cleaning and/or servicing. Service to your treadmill should only be performed by an authorized service representative, unless authorized and/or instructed by the manufacturer. Failure to follow these instructions will void the treadmill warranty.

Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running.

Before You Start

Thank you for purchasing a KEYS treadmill! The ENCORE 4500/6500HR treadmill was designed to meet your needs for cardiovascular exercise.

Before you start, please read the Owner’s Manual and become familiar with the operation of your new treadmill.

Remember to take the time to perform the stretching exercises provided on Page 6 to avoid injury.

Do not stand on the walking belt while pressing the Power button or Start/Stop button.

Always adjust the speed of the treadmill in small increments as this treadmill is capable of high speeds.

If you are taking medication, consult your physician to see if the medication will affect your exercise heart rate.

If you have heart problems, you are not active, and/or are over the age of 35 years, do not use the pre-set treadmill programs or start an exercise program without first contacting and receiving approval from your physician.

To avoid the risk of electrical shock, always keep the console dry. Do not spill liquids on the console. KEYS recommends a sealed water bottle for beverages consumed while using the treadmill.

Warm Up Exercises

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING! Before beginning this or any exercise program, you should consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.

Warming up prepares the body for the exercise by increasing circulation, supplying more oxygen to the muscles and raising body temperature. Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up. The photos on this page show several forms of basic stretching you may perform before your workouts. In order to achieve an adequate warm-up, perform each stretch three times.

TOE TOUCH STRETCH

Stand bending your knees slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your hamstrings, back of knees , and back.

HAMSTRING STRETCH

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax.

This will stretch your hamstrings, lower back, and groin.

CALF/ACHILLES STRETCH

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. To cause further stretching of the Achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. This will stretch your calves, Achilles tendons, and ankles.

QUADRICEPS STRETCH

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your quadriceps and hip muscles.

INNER THIGH STRETCH

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. This will stretch your quadriceps and hip muscles.

CAUTION! TO AVOID THE RISK OF INJURY, NEVER ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE TREADMILL WHILE IT IS IN THE UNFOLDED OPERATING POSITON. TO REDUCE THE POSSIBILITY OF INJURY WHILE LIFTING, BEND YOUR LEGS AND KEEP YOUR BACK STRAIGHT. AS YOU RAISE THE TREADMILL, LIFT USING YOUR LEGS, NOT YOUR BACK.

Power Requirements

IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT GROUNDING CONNECTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF AN ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE MAN IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE PRODUCT IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED WITH THE PRODUCT, IF IT WILL NOT FIT THE OUTLET, HAVE A PROPER OUTLET INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

This treadmill can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s electrical power. Voltage spikes, surges, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To reduce the possibility of treadmill damage, always use a surge protector (not included) with your treadmill.

Surge protectors can be purchased at most hardware stores. The manufacturer recommends a single outlet surge protector with a UL 1449 rating as a Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) with a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400V or less and an electrical rating of 120VAC, 15 amps.

This treadmill must be grounded to reduce the risk of electrical shock. Grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, should the treadmill malfunction. This treadmill comes with an electrical cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Always plug the power cord into a surge protector, and plug the surge protector into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in the drawing below.
