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 in this userÕs manual.

3.Place the treadmill on a level surface, with eight feet of clearance behind it. 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.

7.Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

8.Wear appropriate clothing 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.

9.When connecting the power cord (see How to Plug in the Power Cord on page 10), plug the power cord into a surge protector (not included) and plug the surge protector into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or more amps. No other appliance should be on the same circuit.

10.Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppres- sor must have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dis- sipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15 amps.

11.Keep the power cord and the surge suppres- sor away from heated surfaces.

12.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.)

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

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

15.The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accu- racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

16.Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord and move the on/off switch to the off position when the treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the loca- tion of the on/off switch.)

17.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 18.) You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

18.When folding or moving the treadmill, make sure that the frame is held securely by the storage latch.

19.Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill every three months.

20.Never drop or insert any object into any opening.
