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 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 the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.

8. The treadmill should not be used by persons
weighing more than 350 lbs. (160 kg).

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.

11. When connecting the power cord (see page

13), plug the power cord into a surge suppres­sor (not included) and plug the surge sup
pressor 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 13. To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local GOLD’S GYM 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 change
speed, 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 22 if the tread­mill is not working properly.)

16. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 15).

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

18. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to
avoid sudden jumps in speed.

19. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
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.

20. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
s running. Always remove the key, unplug

i

he power cord, and switch the reset/off cir-

t
cuit 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

reaker.)

b

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

22. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by

placing objects under the treadmill.

23. When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the frame is held securely by the
pin on the latch knob.

24.

Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the
treadmill regularly.

25. Never insert or drop any object into any

opening on the treadmill.

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.

uctors, location of antenna discharge unit,

onnection to grounding electrodes, and re-

c
quirements for the grounding electrode.

29. An outside antenna system should not be lo­ated in the vicinity of overhead power lines

c
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.

30. 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.

31. 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 (5.3mm
AWG (8.4mm2) aluminum, No. 17 AWG
(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 1.83 m)
apart.

• Mount an antenna discharge unit as close
as possible to where the lead-in enters the
house.

27. The treadmill is intended for in-home use
only. Do not use the treadmill in any commer­cial, rental, or institutional setting.

28. 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 struc
ture, grounding of the lead-in wire to an an-

• Use a jumper wire not smaller than No. 6
AWG (13.3mm2) copper, or the equivalent
when a separate antenna-grounding elec
trode 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
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particu­lar, 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.
