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
your voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for
testing. See Diagnosis Guide, page 15.

● ●

A red lighted power switch is located on the front base near the power cord. It is not

Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce 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 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A. A temporary adapter that looks like the
adapter illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) 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.

Important Operation Instructions

● ●

●

● ●

NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results

of any operational change you request from the computer.

● ●

●

● ●

Underst and 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 house-

hold power supply that could damage treadmill components.

● ●

●

● ●

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. S pirit treadmills start

with zero 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 grab bar while making control changes (incline, speed, etc.).

Do not use excessive pressure on console control overlays. 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 Spirit dealer; adjustments can be made. All buttons should operate and
control treadmill functions without excessive finger effort. Damage to overlay will result if
excessive control pressure continues.

Safety Tether Cord

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 treadbelt.
Pulling this safety tether cord will stop treadbelt movement.

To Use:

1. Place magnet into position on the yellow portion of the console control head. Y our
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 and
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 S top / Pause switch in normal operation.
