IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read
all important precautions and instructions 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. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of this treadmill are adequately
informed of all warnings and precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or persons
with pre-existing health problems.
3. Use the treadmill only as described in this
manual.
4. The treadmill is intended for home use only.
Do not use the treadmill in any commercial,
rental, or institutional setting.
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. 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.
7. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.
8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the treadmill at all times.
9. The treadmill should be used only by persons weighing 400 lbs. (181 kg) or less.
10. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.
11. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while
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. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor
(not included), and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet (see page 21).
To avoid overloading the circuit, do not plug
other electrical devices, except for low-power
devices such as cell phone chargers, into
the surge suppressor or into an outlet on the
same circuit.
13. Use only a surge suppressor that meets all of
the specifications described on page 21. To
purchase a surge suppressor, see your local
NORDICTRACK dealer, call the telephone
number on the front cover of this manual, or
see your local electronics store.
14. 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.
15. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.
16. 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 39 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
17. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill
(see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on
page 23).
18. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.
19. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to
avoid sudden jumps in speed.
3
20. The heart rate monitor is not a medical
device. Various factors, including the user’s
movement, may affect the accuracy of heart
rate readings. The heart rate monitor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
21. Never leave the treadmill unattended while
it is running. Always remove the key, press
the power switch into the off position (see
the drawing on page 8 for the location of the
power switch), and unplug the power cord
when the treadmill is not in use.
22. Do not attempt to move the treadmill until
it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY
on page 10 and HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE
THE TREADMILL on page 38.) You must be
able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to move the
treadmill.
23. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the storage latch is holding the
frame securely in the storage position.
24. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by
placing objects under the treadmill.
25. Never insert any object into any opening on
the treadmill.
28. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience
pain while exercising, stop immediately and
cool down.
29. 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 (32° C).
30. 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.
31. If an outside antenna or cable system is
connected, make sure that the antenna or
cable system is grounded to provide some
protection against voltage surges and builtup static charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, or
your local codes and ordinances provide
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.
26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the
treadmill regularly.
27. 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.
32. 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, use extreme care to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits, as
contact with them might be fatal.
33. 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.
4
34. 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.
38. Use a jumper wire not smaller than No. 6
AWG (13.3 mm2) copper, or the equivalent,
when a separate antenna-grounding electrode is used. See NEC Section 810-21 (j) or
your local codes and ordinances.
35. Use No. 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) copper, No. 8 AWG
(8.4 mm2) aluminum, No. 17 AWG (1.0 mm2)
copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or larger as
a ground wire.
36. 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.
37. Mount an antenna discharge unit as close
as possible to where the lead-in enters the
house.
