DANGER —
WARNING —
• Do not allow children or those unfamiliar with its operation on or near the treadmill. Do not leave children unsupervised around the treadmill.
• Never leave the treadmill unattended. Unplug the unit from the power outlet when it is not in use, before cleaning it, and before putting on or taking off parts. Do not adjust the running belt when someone is standing on the unit.
• Assemble and operate the treadmill on a solid, level surface. Locate the treadmill a few feet from walls or furniture. Check the unit before each use and verify that all fasteners are secure. Maintain the treadmill in good working condition.
• Use the treadmill only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use accessory attachments that are not recommended by the manufacturer; such attach­ments might cause injuries.
• If you purchased the optional POLAR® chest strap, review the guidelines found in the
Precor Heart Rate Option Owner’s Manual
• Never operate the unit if it is damaged, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped, or if it has been dropped in water. Return the unit to a service center for examination and repair.
• Keep all electrical components such as the motor, power cord, and I/O switch, away from liquids to prevent shock. Do not set anything on the handrail, display console, or hood. Place liquids, magazines and books in the appropriate receptacles.
• Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.
• Do not use outdoors.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• The security clip must be attached at waist level prior to beginning a workout. A cord connects the security clip to the red STOP button on the console. If a user encoun­ters difficulties, a strong tug on the security cord or a quick tap on the red STOP button will stop the running belt.
• Use care when getting on or off the treadmill. Use the stationary handrail whenever possible. Place your feet firmly on the right and left side platforms before the run­ning belt begins moving (prior to a workout). Step onto the running belt when the speed is at or below 1 mph (1.6 kph).

When identified with the ETL-c logo, the treadmill has been tested and conforms to the require­ments of CAN/CSA-E-335-1/3-94, Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The C956 or C954 treadmill must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current which reduces the risk of electrical shock. The C956 or C954 treadmill is equipped with a power cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. If you do not follow these
DANGER —
or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the treadmill is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the treadmill. If it doesn’t fit the outlet, get a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.

Correct power outlet for U.S. Markets: 120-volt and 240-volt plugs.
120V Units and 240V Units Designated for U.S. Markets
The C956 or C954 treadmill must be connected to a dedicated, grounded circuit. A 20 amp dedicated circuit is recommended. The treadmill is factory-equipped with a specific power supply cord to permit connection to a proper electric circuit as shown in Diagram 1. Make sure that the treadmill is connected to an outlet having the same configurations as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.
Grounding Instructions
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician

RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE (RFI)
Federal Communications Commission Part 15
The treadmill has been tested and found to comply with:
The IEC EMC Directive (international electromagnetic compatibility certification)
The limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a commercial installation. The treadmill generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accor­dance with the owner’s manual instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of the treadmill in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference. If this occurs, the user will be required to correct the interference at his or her own expense.
CAUTION —
Per FCC rules, changes or modifications to the treadmill not expressly approved by Precor, could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Canadian Department of Communications
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

Unpacking the Treadmill
Thank you for purchasing the Precor C956 or C954 treadmill. Built to the exacting standards of the health club environment, the treadmill is intended for commercial use and can withstand the rigors of daily club use with little maintenance.
Important: Before using the treadmill, we urge you to familiarize yourself and your staff with the entire Owner’s Manual. Understanding this manual will help you and your customers use the treadmill safely and successfully.
CAUTION: This unit weighs over 350 pounds (158 kilograms). To prevent injury to yourself or damage to the equipment, obtain appropriate assistance before removing the unit from the pallet.
The treadmill is carefully inspected before shipment so it should arrive in good operating condition. Precor ships the unit in the following pieces:
Base frame assembly with hood Hardware kit
Two upright supports Owner’s Manual
Display console with cable Power cord
Two handrails (left and right)
If any items are missing, refer to
STANDARD EQUIPMENT
The treadmill incorporates the Precor SmartRate® and Heart Rate features into its display console. Devices, such as FitLinxx®, that are CSAFE compatible, can also be attached.
The Precor “touch” heart rate is standard on the C956 and provides electrode strips, called “grips,” on the center handrail. When a user grasps the metal-portion of the center handrail, a heart rate is transmitted to the receiver.
Note: If a user does not wish to use the touch-sensitive hand grips, an optional POLAR® chest strap can be purchased and worn. The chest strap transmits the user’s heart rate and it appears as a number in the HEART RATE display.
Important: The Precor “touch” heart rate is not available on the C954 treadmill, but the SmartRate® and heart rate features will appear on the display if the user wears the optional POLAR® chest strap.
