WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance.
DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your SOLE treadmill from the
electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install
the treadmill on a flat level surface with access to a 110-volt, 15-amp grounded outlet with
only the treadmill plugged into the circuit..
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS A 14AWG OR BETTER, WITH ONLY
ONE OUTLET ON THE END: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE GROUNDED PLUG BY
USING IMPROPER ADAPTERS, OR IN ANY WAY MODIFY THE CORD SET. A serious shock
or fire hazard may result along with computer malfunctions. See Grounding Instructions,
page 4.
• Do not operate treadmill on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and
treadmill may result.
• Do not block the rear of the treadmill. Provide a minimum of 3 1/2 feet clearance between the
rear of the treadmill and any fixed object.
• Keep children away from the treadmill. There are obvious pinch points and other caution
areas that can cause harm.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts.
• Never operate the treadmill if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the treadmill is not working
properly, call your dealer.
• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
• Do not operate where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is being
administered. Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous environment.
Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
Do not use outdoors.
To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, remove tether cord, then remove the
plug from the outlet.
Do not attempt to use your treadmill for any purpose other than for the purpose it is
intended.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user's movement,
may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as
exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in general.
• Use handrails provided; they are for your safety.
• Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for use on
your treadmill. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.
Remove tether cord after use to prevent unauthorized treadmill operation. SAVE
THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

WARNING!
NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. As with any
appliance with a large motor, the GFCI will trip often. Route the power cord away from any moving
part of the treadmill including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels.
NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power.
If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your treadmill may be affected.
Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low, contact
your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper testing.
NEVER expose this treadmill to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors,
near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The maximum operating
temperature specification is 40 degrees c, and humidity is 95% non-condensing (no water drops
forming on surfaces).
Circuit breakers: Some circuit breakers used in homes are not rated for high inrush currents that
can occur when a treadmill is first turned on or even during use. If your treadmill is tripping the house
circuit breaker (even though it is the proper current rating) but the circuit breaker on the treadmill
itself does not trip, you will need to replace the home breaker with a high inrush type. This is not a
warranty defect. This is a condition we as a manufacture have no ability to control. This part is
available through most electrical supply stores. Examples: Grainger part # 1D237, or available
online at www.squared.com part # QO120HM.
This product must be grounded. If the treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This
product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 110-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below may be
used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet, (shown
below) 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. Adapter

• NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results of any
operational change you request from the computer.
• Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired
speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will obey the
command gradually.
• NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household power
supply that could damage treadmill components. Unplug the treadmill during an electrical storm
as a precaution.
• Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill; such as
watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance or stray from
walking in the center of the belt; which may result in serious injury.
• NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. SOLE treadmills start with at a
very low speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply standing on the
belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate the unit.
Always hold on to a handrail or hand bar while making control changes (incline, speed, etc.).
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function
properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go faster or
slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure contact your
SOLE dealer.
A safety tether cord is provided with this unit. It is a simple magnetic design that should be used at
all times. It is for your safety should you fall or move too far back on the tread-belt.
Pulling this safety tether cord will stop tread-belt movement.
To Use:
1. Place the magnet into position on the red oval portion of the console control head. Your treadmill
will not start and operate without this. Removing the magnet also secures the treadmill from
unauthorized use.
2. Fasten the plastic clip onto your clothing securely to assure good holding power. Note: The
magnet has strong enough power to minimize accidental, unexpected stopping. The clip should be
attached securely to make certain it does not come off. Be familiar with its function and limitations.
The treadmill will stop, depending on speed, with a one to two step coast anytime the magnet is
pulled off the console. Use the red Stop / Pause switch in normal operation.

!!ATTENTION: IMPORTANT UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS. PLEASE
READ BEFORE UNPACKING YOUR FOLDING TREADMILLtt
Serious injury could occur if this folding treadmill is not unpacked properly.
There is a Velcro strap installed around the treadmill base that prevents the treadmill from unfolding
accidentally during shipping. If this strap is not removed properly the treadmill could spring open
unexpectedly and cause injury if someone is standing near the treadmill when the strap is removed.
To ensure your personal safety during removal of the shipping strap please make sure the treadmill
is positioned flat on the ground, in the orientation it would be in if you were using the treadmill. Do
not turn the treadmill up on its side while removing the shipping strap. This could cause the
treadmill's folding mechanism to spring open. If the end of the Velcro strap (that you need to grab to
remove it) happens to be under the treadmill deck, reach under the deck to grab it, but do not tilt the
treadmill up to gain access to the strap end.
