Important Safety Instructions

WARNING

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should
always be followed, including the following:
Read all instructions before using this appliance.
DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock:
Always unplug this appliance from the electrical outlet
immediately after using and before cleaning.

WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, re, electric

shock, or injur y 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:

To reduce the risk of burns, re electric shock, or injury to

persons:

• An appliance should never be left unattended when
plugged in. Unplug from outlet when not in use, and
before putting on or taking off parts.

• Do not operate under blanket or pillow. Excessive

heating can occur and cause re, electric shock, or

injury to persons.

• Close supervision is necessary when this appliance

is used by, on, or near children, invalids, or disabled

persons.

• Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use attachments not

recommended by the manufacturer.

• Never operate this appliance if it has a damaged cord
or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been
dropped or damaged, or dropped into water. Return

the appliance to a service center for examination and

repair.

• Do not carry this appliance by supply cord or use cord
as a handle.

• Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.

• Never operate the appliance with the air openings
blocked. Keep the air openings free of lint, hair, and the
like.

• Never drop or insert any object into any opening.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are
being use or where oxygen is being administered.

• Connect this appliance to a properly grounded outlet
only.

• The appliance is intended for household use.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons with
reduced physical, sensory or metal capabilities, or lack

of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the

appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

• Keep children under the age of 13 away from this
machine.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

Fitness Equipment Safety Instructions

• Do not operate equipment on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and equipment may result.

• Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult a physician. This is especially important for persons over the age

of 35 or persons with pre-existing health conditions.

• Do not attempt to use your equipment for any purpose other than for the purpose it is intended.

• Keep hands away from all moving parts.

• The 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 (sold separately) 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.

• Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for use on your equipment. Quality

athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.

Failure to follow all guidelines may compromise the effectiveness of the exercise experience, expose yourself (and possibly
others) to injury, and reduce the longevity of the equipment.

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 par t 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 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 operating temperature specication is 40 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity
is 95% non-condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces).

6

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 par t is available through most electrical supply stores. Examples: Grainger part # 1D237, or available online at

www.squared.com part #QO120HM. The electrical outlet used should have a dedicated 15 amp circuit breaker.

Grounding Instructions

This product must be grounded. If the your equipment 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 dedicated 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 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 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.
