11. Failure to use a properly functioning surge uppressor could result in damage to the con-

s trol system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change speed, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

13. 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.)

14. Read, understand, and test the emergency

stop procedure before using the treadmill (see TREADMILL OPERATION on page 10).

15. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.

16. To protect the treadmill and TV during light-

ning storms, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage due to lightning and power line surges.

17. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.

feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

18.

9. When connecting the power cord (see page 10), 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.

10. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 10. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local PROFORM dealer or call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual and order part number 146148, or see your local electronics store.

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.

19. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord, and move the reset/off circuit breaker to the “off” position when the tread mill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 6 for the location of the circuit breaker.)

20. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the readmill until it is properly assembled. (See

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.

25. The treadmill is intended for in-home use

only. Do not use the treadmill in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

26. If an outside antenna or cable system is con-

nected, 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.

27. An outside antenna system should not be loated in the vicinity of overhead power lines

c or other electric light or power circuits, or

here it can fall into such power lines or cir-

w cuits. When installing an outside antenna

ystem, extreme care should be taken to keep

s from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal.

28. 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.

29. 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 (5.3mm

) copper, No. 8 AWG (8.4mm2) aluminum, No. 17 AWG (1.0mm2) copper-clad steel or bronze wire, or 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 1.83m) apart.

• Mount an antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where the lead-in enters the house.

• Use a jumper wire not smaller than No. 6

AWG (13.3mm

) copper, or the equivalent when a separate antenna-grounding electrode is used. See NEC Section 810-21 (j).

Note to CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particu

lar, 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.
