GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This Life Fitness product must be properly grounded. If the unit malfunctions or breaks down, proper grounding provides a path of least resistance for the electric current, which reduces the risk of shock to anyone touching or using the equipment. Each unit is equipped with an electrical cord, which includes an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all loc a l cod es and ordinances.
A temporary adapter MUST NOT BE USED to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle in North America. If a properly grounded, 12 AMP outlet is not available, a qualified electrician must install one.
DANGER: A risk of electrical shock may result from improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor. Check with a qualified electrician if in doubt about proper grounding technique. DO NOT modify the plug provided with the product. If it will not fit an electrical outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER : Tout branchement incorrect du conducteur de mise à la terre de lappareil peut causer un risque de décharge électrique. Consul ter un électr icien qualifié en cas de doute sur la technique de mise à la masse. NE PAS modifier la fiche de l’appareil. Si elle ne sadapte pas sur une prise électrique, faire installer une prise correcte par un électricien qualifié.

HOW TO STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS TREADMILL
After placing the unit where it will be used, check its stability. If there is even a slight rocking motion or the unit is not stable, determine which stabilizing leg is not resting on the floor. To adjust, loosen the JAM NUT (A) and turn the STABILIZING LEG (B) until the rocking motion ceases and both stabilizing legs rest firmly on the floor. Retighten the JAM NUT.
NOTE: It is extremely important that the stabilizing leg be correctly adjusted for proper operation. An unbalanced unit may cause striding belt misalignment.
POWER SWITCH
Located on the front panel at the base of the treadmill, the ON/OFF switch has two positions - "I" (one) for ON and "0" (zero) for OFF.
IMMOBILIZING THE TREADMILL
The treadmill can be immobilized if necessary as follows: If the MESSAGE CENTER does not display SELECT A WORKOUT, press the STOP key twice until that prompt appears. Then, press and hold down the SPEED DOWN key and press the STOP key. The MESSAGE CENTER displays “IMMOBILIZED”. The immobilized treadmill cannot be operated, and it remains in this state across resets, power cycles, etc. The main motor and incline are disabled. To restore normal operation, repeat the same key sequence: Press and hold down the SPEED DOWN key, and press the STOP key. The MESSAGE CENTER displays SELECT A WORKOUT, indicating that the treadmill is ready for use.
