PROBLEM: The power does not turn on

SOLUTION: a.Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a surge protector, and that the surge protector is plugged into a properly grounded outlet. (See HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 8.) Use only a CUL-listed surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of 1,5 m (5 ft.) or less in length.

b. After the power cord has been plugged in, make sure that the key is fully inserted into the con- sole. See step 1 on page 10.

c. Check the circuit breaker located on the treadmill near the power cord. If the switch protrudes as shown, the circuit breaker has tripped. To reset the circuit breaker, wait for five minutes and then press the switch back in.

d. Check the on/off switch located on the treadmill near the power cord. The switch must be in the on position.
