IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance.

DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your Spirit treadmill from the

electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, re, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the treadmill on a at 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.

The treadmill should be the only appliance in the circuit in which it is connected.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE GROUNDED PLUG BY USING IMPROPER ADAPTERS, OR IN ANY WAY MODIFY THE CORD SET. A serious shock or re hazard may result along with computer malfunctions. See Grounding Instructions, page 3.

 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 xed 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 treadmilll 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, 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 hand pulse sensors are not medical devices. Their purpose is to provide you

with an approximate measurement in relation to your target heart rate. Use of a chest

transmitter strap is a much more accurate method of heart rate analysis . 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 treadmilll. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

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 rst 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 treadmilll 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 operating temperature specication is 40 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit, 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 rst 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If the treadmilll 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 qualied 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 t the outlet; have a proper outlet installed by a qualied 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 qualied 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.  Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your

desired work level 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 treadmilll components. Unplug the

treadmill during an electrical storm as a precaution.  Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmilll;

such as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose

balance which may result in serious injury.  Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to

function properly with little nger pressure.

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 tread-belt. Pulling this safety tether cord will stop tread-belt

movement. To Use:

1. Place the magnet into position on the round metal 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 Stop / Pause switch in normal operation.

XT485 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

!!ATTENTION: IMPORTANT UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS. PLEASE READ BEFORE UNPACKING YOUR FOLDING TREADMILL!!

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 at 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.

Cut the banding straps with a short box cutter (razor knife); separate the carton from the one underneath it by prying up on the staples (if applicable). Pull the carton over the treadmill parts and locate the hardware pack. The hardware pack is separated into ve sections; one section containing tools and four sections labeled steps 1-4 which contain the hardware needed for assembly of each step. The assembly steps below are numbered one through four and correspond to the hardware in the numbered sections of the hardware pack. Remove only the hardware for the step you are currently assembling to avoid confusion and mix ups.

Then remove the treadmill from the carton and lay it on a level surface.
