IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the

following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
hat all users of this treadmill are adequately

t
informed of all warnings and precautions.

2. Use the treadmill only as described.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at

least eight feet of clearance behind it and two
feet on each side. Do not place the treadmill
on any surface that blocks air openings. To
protect the floor or carpet from damage, place
a mat under the treadmill.

4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois-

ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.

5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol

products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

away from the treadmill at all times.

7. The treadmill should not be used by persons

weighing more than 350 pounds (159 kg).

8. Never allow more than one person on the

treadmill at a time.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes
that could become caught in the treadmill.
Athletic support clothes are recommended for
both men and women.

Always wear athletic
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,
wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 13),
plug the power cord into a surge suppressor
(not included) and plug the surge suppressor
into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15
or more amps. No other appliance should be on
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that
meets all of the specifications described on
page 13. To purchase a surge suppressor, call
the toll-free telephone number on the front
cover of this manual

12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
uppressor could result in damage to the con-

s
trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys­tem is damaged, the walking belt may change
speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly,
which may result in a fall and serious injury.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

14. Never move the walking belt while the power

is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if
the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the
treadmill is not working properly. (See
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 22 if the tread­mill is not working properly.)

15. Read, understand, and test the emergency

stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 15).

16. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.

17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.

18. The pulse sensor is not a medical devices.

Various factors, including the user's move­ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.

19. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug the
power cord, and switch the reset/off circuit
breaker to the “off” position when the tread
mill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 6
for the location of the reset/off circuit breaker.)

20. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the

treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See
ASSEMBLY on page 7, and HOW TO FOLD
AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 21.) You
must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to
raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

21. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by
lacing objects under the treadmill.

p

22. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the frame is held securely by the pin

n the latch knob.

o

or other electric light or power circuits, or

here it can fall into such power lines or cir-

w

uits. When installing an outside antenna sys-

c
tem, extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits, as
contact with them might be fatal.

23. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the

readmill regularly.

t

24. Never insert or drop any object into any

opening.

25.

DANGER: Always unplug the power

cord immediately after use, before cleaning
the treadmill, and before performing the main­tenance and adjustment procedures de­scribed in this manual. Never remove the
motor hood unless instructed to do so by an
authorized service representative. Servicing
other than the procedures in this manual
should be performed by an authorized service
representative only.

26. The treadmill is intended for in-home use

only. Do not use the treadmill in any commer­cial, rental, or institutional setting.

27. If an outside antenna or cable system is con-

nected, be sure that the antenna or cable sys­tem is grounded to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, pro­vides information with respect to proper
grounding of the mast and supporting struc­ture, grounding of the lead-in wire to an an­tenna discharge unit, size of grounding con­ductors, location of antenna discharge unit,
connection to grounding electrodes, and re­quirements for the grounding electrode.

28. An outside antenna system should not be lo-

cated in the vicinity of overhead power lines

29. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not re­move the cover or the back of the television.
There are no user serviceable parts inside.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

30. Upon completion of any service or repairs to
the treadmill or the television, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to con­firm that the unit is in proper operating con­dition.

AWG (8.4mm

) aluminum, No. 17 AWG

) copper, No. 8

(1.0mm2) copper-clad steel or bronze wire,
or larger as a ground wire.

• Secure an antenna lead-in and ground wires

to the house with stand-off insulators
spaced from 4 to 6 feet (1.22 to 1.83m)
apart.

• Mount an antenna discharge unit as close

as possible to where the lead-in enters the
house.

• Use a jumper wire not smaller than No. 6

2

AWG (13.3mm

) copper, or the equivalent
when a separate antenna-grounding elec­trode is used. See NEC Section 810-21 (j).

Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is
provided to call the CATV system installer’s at­tention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particu

­lar, specifies that the cable ground shall be con­nected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed.

Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal
condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off
the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
