IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and in-
structions 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. Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of
35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of this treadmill are adequately
informed of all warnings and precautions.
3. Use the treadmill only as described.
4. 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.
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. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.
7. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the treadmill at all times.
8. The treadmill should be used only by persons weighing 350 lbs. (159 kg) or less.
11. When connecting the power cord (see page
14), plug the power cord into a surge suppressor (not included) and plug the surge suppressor 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.
12. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that
meets all of the specifications described on
page 14. To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local PROFORM dealer or call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see your
local electronics store.
13. 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.
14. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.
15. 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 28 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
9. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.
10. 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.
16. Read, understand, and test the emergency
stop procedure before using the treadmill (see
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 16).
17. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.

8. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
1
Adjust the speed in small increments to
void sudden jumps in speed.
a
9. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
1
Various factors, including the user's move-
ent, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
m
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as an exercise aid in determining heart
rate trends in general.
20. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
is running. Always remove the key, unplug
the power cord, and switch the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position when the
treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on
page 6 for the location of the reset/off circuit
breaker.)
ther than the procedures in this manual
o
should be performed by an authorized service
representative only.
27. The treadmill is intended for in-home use
nly. Do not use the treadmill in any commer-
o
cial, rental, or institutional setting.
28. 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 (35° C).
29. 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.
21. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the
treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See
ASSEMBLY on page 7, and HOW TO FOLD
AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 26.) You
must be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to

23. When folding or moving the treadmill, make
sure that the storage latch is holding the
frame securely in the storage position.
24. Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the
treadmill regularly.
25. Never insert or drop any object into any
opening on the treadmill.
26. 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
30. If an outside antenna or cable system is connected, be sure that the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static
charges. Section 810 of the National
Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides 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.
31. 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, extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits, as
contact with them might be fatal.
32. 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.

33. 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.
• Use No. 10 AWG (5.3 mm2) copper, No. 8
WG (8.4 mm
A
2
mm
) copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or
2
aluminum, No. 17 AWG (1.0
)
larger as a ground wire.
• 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.
• Mount an antenna discharge unit as close
as possible to where the lead-in enters the
house.
Power Lines
• 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).
ote to CATV system installer: This reminder is
N
provided to call the CATV system installerʼs attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Assembly requires two persons. Set the treadmill in a cleared area and remove all packing materials. Do not
dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. Note: The underside of the treadmill walking
elt is coated with high-performance lubricant. During shipping, a small amount of lubricant may be transferred to
b
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.
Assembly requires the included hex key and your own Phillips screwdriver .
Use the drawings below to identify the assembly hardware. The number in parentheses below each drawing is
the key number of the part, from the PART LIST near the end of this manual. The number after the parentheses
is the quantity needed for assembly. Note: If a part is not in the hardware kit, check to see if it is preattached
to one of the parts to be assembled. To avoid damaging plastic parts, do not use power tools for assembly. Extra hardware may be included.
