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 in this
manual.
3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at
least 2.5 m (8 ft.) of clearance behind it and
0.5 m (2 ft.) 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. The roller guards should be 32mm (1/8 in.)
from the rear roller. Adjust the position of
the roller guards, if necessary. (The drawing
on page 5 shows the location of the roller
guards.)
7. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the treadmill at all times.
8. The treadmill should not be used by persons
weighing more than 115 kg (250 lbs.). Never
allow more than one person on the treadmill
at a time.
9. When connecting the power cord (see page
7), 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.
10. Use only a CUL-listed surge suppressor of
450 joules minimum surge dissipation with
voltage rating of 400 volts or less, rated at
15 amps, with a 1 mm
2
(14-gauge) cord of 1.5
m (5 ft.) or less in length. Do not use an
extension cord.
11. 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 or stop unexpectedly, which
may result in a fall and serious injury.
12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.
13. 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
BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the treadmill is not working properly.)
14. Wear appropriate exercise attire when using
the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothing
that could become caught in the treadmill.
Athletic support clothes are recommended
for both men and women. Always wear athletic shoes. Never use the treadmill with
bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.
15. Never start the treadmill while you are
standing on the walking belt. Always hold
the handrails while exercising on the treadmill.
16. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.
17. Adjust the speed in small increments.
18. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it
is running. Always remove the key when the
treadmill is not in use.
19. To change the incline level of the treadmill,
refer to the instructions on page 10. Do not
use the treadmill with the incline pins
removed.
