Important Voltage Information
Before plugging the power cord into an electrical outlet, verify that the voltage requirements for the
site match the voltage of the treadmill that has been received. The power requirements for the unit
include a grounded, dedicated circuit, rated for one of the following:
• 100 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 20A
• 115 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 20A
• 208 VAC, 60 Hz, 15A

Grounding Instructions
This treadmill must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with
a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
WARNING: Shock and electrocution hazard.
• Connect unit to a grounded outlet.
• Do not use voltage adapter or extension cord.
This treadmill is for use on a grounded, dedicated circuit. Make sure that the treadmill is connected to
an outlet having the same conguration as the plug. Do not use a ground plug adapter to adapt the
power cord to a non-grounded outlet.

Emergency Stop Key (e-stop)
The e-stop key functions as an emergency stop. In an emergency situation, the e-stop key
disengages from the console and the treadmill will come to a stop. Before using the treadmill, clip the
e-stop key as described below.
1. Compress the spring and clip the e-stop clamp to your clothing. Ensure the clip engages
enough clothing so it does not fall off in an emergency situation. Be sure the string is free of
knots and has enough slack for you to workout comfortably with the e-stop key in place.

console. If the e-stop clip falls off your clothing then the test has failed. Reclip the e-stop clip to
your clothing and repeat this step.
3. Replace the e-stop key.
4. The treadmill is now ready to be used. Ensure the e-stop clip is secured to your clothing at all
times during use.
