IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the

following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

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. Use the treadmill only as described in this
manual.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least eight feet 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 put 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. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets

12. Keep the power cord and the surge protector
away from heated surfaces.

13. Never move the walking belt while the power

the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the
treadmill is not working properly. (See
BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the tread­mill is not working properly.)

14. Never start the treadmill while you are stand­ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.

15. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid
sudden jumps in speed.

16. 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.

8. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth­ing 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.

10. When connecting the power cord (see page 7),
plug the power cord into a surge protector (not
included) and plug the surge protector into a
grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or
more amps. No other appliance should be on
the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

11.

Use only a UL-listed surge protector, rated at
15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or

17. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord and move the on/off switch to
the off position when the treadmill is not in
use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the loca­tion of the on/off switch.)

18. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the
treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See
ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO FOLD
AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 18.) You
must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in
order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

19. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by
placing objects under the treadmill.

20. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the storage latch is fully closed.

dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Assembly requires the included allen wrench
and your own phillips screwdriver .

Note: The underside of the treadmill walking belt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a
small amount of lubricant may be transferred to the top of the walking belt or the shipping carton. This is a normal
condition and does not affect treadmill performance. If there is lubricant on top of the walking belt, simply wipe off
the lubricant with a soft cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.

1. With the help of a second person, carefully raise the
Uprights (82) until the treadmill is in the position shown.

2. With the help of a second person, carefully lower the
treadmill frame to the floor.

IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other

DANGER: Improper connection

of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric 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.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home’s power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can re­sult from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off.

To decrease the pos­sibility of your tread­mill being damaged,
always use a surge
protector (not in­cluded) with your
treadmill.

protector, and plug the surge protector into an ap­propriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. Important: The treadmill is not com­patible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus­trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep­tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out­let is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) 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.

covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec­trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
