IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and in-

structions in this manual and all warnings on your treadmill before using your treadmill. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

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

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of this treadmill are adequately informed of all warnings and precautions.

3. Use the treadmill only as described.

4. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at least 8 ft. (2.4 m) of clearance behind it and 2 ft. (0.6 m) 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.

5. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a garage or covered patio, or near water.

6. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

7. Keep children under age 12 and pets away from the treadmill at all times.

8. The treadmill should be used only by persons weighing 350 lbs. (159 kg) or less.

11. When connecting the power cord (see page

14), 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.

12. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local EPIC dealer or call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see your local electronics store.

13. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may slow, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

14. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.

15. 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 28 if the treadmill is not working properly.)

9. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

10. 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.

16. Read, understand, and test the emergency stop procedure before using the treadmill (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 16).

17. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.

8. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

Adjust the speed in small increments to

void sudden jumps in speed.

9. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.

Various factors, including the user's move-

ent, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

m readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

20. 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 treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 6 for the location of the reset/off circuit breaker.)

ther than the procedures in this manual

o should be performed by an authorized service representative only.

27. The treadmill is intended for in-home use nly. Do not use the treadmill in any commer-

o cial, rental, or institutional setting.

28. Do not store the television in temperatures

below -40° F (-40° C) or above 140° F (60° C). Do not operate the television in temperatures below 23° F (-5° C) or above 90° F (35° C).

29. To protect the treadmill and television during

lightning storms, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and disconnect the cable system. This will prevent damage due to lightning and power line surges.

21. 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 26.) You must be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

26. 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

30. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected, 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.

31. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal.

32. 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.

33. 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.

• Use No. 10 AWG (5.3mm2) copper, No. 8

WG (8.4mm

A (1.0mm

) 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 1.83 m) apart.

• Mount an antenna discharge unit as close

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