2.Use the treadmill only as described in this manual.
3.Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at least 2 m (8 ft.) of clearance behind it. 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 moisture and dust. Do not place 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.Do not operate the treadmill until it is properly assembled (see HOW TO SET UP THE TREADMILL on page 7).
7.Regularly inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill.
8.Keep children under the age of 12 and pets away from the treadmill at all times.
9.The treadmill should not be used by persons weighing more than 160 kg (350 lbs.).
10.Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.
11.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.
12.When connecting the power cord (see page 10), plug the power cord into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 10 or more amps. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.
13.Keep the power cord 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 BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 6 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
15.Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.
16.The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.
17.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.
18.Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord, and switch the on/off circuit breaker to the off position when the treadmill is not in use.

20.When using iFIT.com CDs, you will be alerted by an electronic “chirping” sound when the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change. Always listen for the “chirp” and be prepared for speed and/or incline changes. In some instances, the speed and/or incline may change before the personal trainer describes the change.
21.When using iFIT.com CDs, you can manually override the speed and incline settings at any time by pressing the SPEED and INCLINE buttons. However, when the next “chirp” is heard, the speed and/or incline will change to the next settings of the CD program.

HOW TO MOVE THE TREADMILL
Before moving the treadmill, make sure that the power cord is unplugged. Note: It may be necessary to disconnect the CATV cable from the treadmill, depending on how far the treadmill will be moved.
Due to the size and weight of the treadmill, moving it requires two persons. While one person lifts the indicated end, firmly hold the handrails and tip the treadmill forward until it rolls on the front wheels. Carefully move the treadmill to the desired location and then lower it back to the level position. Note: It may be helpful to change the incline of the treadmill to 5% before moving the treadmill. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, use extreme caution while moving the treadmill. Do not attempt to move the treadmill over uneven surfaces.

To connect the power cord in other countries, refer to the instruction sheet accompanying this manual.
DANGER: Improper connection he equipment-grounding conductor can result in an increased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man 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 dedicated circuit. In the |
||
UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, or France, use a dedi- |
||
cated 10-amp, 240-volt circuit. |
No other appliance |
|
should be on the |
|
|
same circuit. This |

HOW TO CONNECT A CATV CABLE
If your treadmill
has the Workout TV console, a CATV cable must be connected to the treadmill for cable TV stations to be viewed. Locate the cable jack on the front of the treadmill.
Connect the CATV cable to the cable jack using the PAL adapter.
A satellite receiver, VCR, or DVD player can also be connected to the treadmill. Connect a CATV cable from the coaxial output on your equipment (usually labeled TV OUT or RF OUT) to the cable jack on the front of the treadmill.
Note: Audio/video equipment without coaxial outputs (some satellite receivers and DVD players) will require an RF modulator to work correctly with the treadmill. RF modulators are not available from FreeMotion Fitness, but are available at electronics stores. See the owner's manual for the equipment you wish to connect to determine if an RF modulator is needed, or contact your local audio/visual service provider.
