IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Read all instructions before using this Treadmill. When using an electrical product, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following: Read all instructions before using this treadmill

WARNING! Connect this exercise product to a properly grounded outlet only.

See grounding instructions.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If a treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical 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 local codes and ordinances.

DANGER! Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of elec-

tric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman 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 product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter such as the one illustrated below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

OPERATION

To reduce the risk of damaging important components on your treadmill, it is strongly recommended that your treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 20amp outlet, without the use of an additional extension cord.

It is essential that your treadmill is used only indoors, in a climate controlled room. If your treadmill has been exposed to colder temperatures or high moisture climates, it is strongly recommended that the treadmill is warmed up to room temperature before first time use. Failure to do so may cause premature electronic failure.

CONGRATULATIONS! on choosing a Horizon Series treadmill.

ASSEMBLY

CAUTION! There are several areas during the assembly process of a treadmill that special attention

must be paid. It is very important to follow the assembly instructions correctly and to make sure all parts are firmly tightened. If the assembly instructions are not followed correctly, the treadmill could have frame parts that are not tightened and will seem loose and may cause irritating noises. There should be no side-to-side play in the console masts or any forward and back play in the console assembly or handlebars. If there is any play in these areas, the treadmill has not been properly assembled.

LEVELING

The treadmill should be level for optimum use. Once you have placed the treadmill where you intend to use it, raise or lower the adjustable levelers located on the treadmill base frame. Once you have leveled the treadmill, lock the levelers in place by tightening the nuts against the frame. To assure the treadmill is level, a carpenter's level is recommended. NOTE: For the Horizon T20 leveling is not

needed.

ING. PULL ON THE SAFETY KEY CLIP FIRST TO MAKE SURE IT WILL NOT COME OFF YOUR CLOTHING.

DO NOT STAND ON THE BELT

While you are preparing to use the treadmill, do not stand on the belt. Place your feet on the side rails before starting the treadmill. Start walking on the belt only after the belt has begun to move. Never start the treadmill at a fast running speed and attempt to jump on!
