IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read

the following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of this treadmill are adequately
informed of all warnings and precautions.

2. Use the treadmill only as described.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least eight feet of clearance behind it and two
feet on each side. Do not place the treadmill
on any surface that blocks air openings. To
protect the floor or carpet from damage,
place a mat under the treadmill.

4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois­ture and dust. Do not put the treadmill in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.

5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is being
administered.

6. Keep children under the age of 12 and pets
away from the treadmill at all times.

athletic shoes. Never use the treadmill with
bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in san­dals.

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

Always wear

your local Sears store or call 1-800-366-7278
and order part number 146148, or see your
local electronics store.

12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the con­trol 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.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres­sor away from heated surfaces.

14. 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 page
12 if the treadmill is not working properly.)

15. Never start the treadmill while you are stand­ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.

16. The treadmill is capable of high speeds.
Adjust the speed in small increments to
avoid sudden jumps in speed.

17. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is
running. Always remove the key and unplug
the power cord when the treadmill is not in
use.

18. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the

treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See
ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO MOVE
THE TREADMILL on page 11.) You must be
able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order
to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

19. Do not change the incline of the treadmill by
placing objects under the treadmill.

When folding or moving the treadmill, make
