Important Safety Instructions
When using the treadmill, always take basic precautions, including the following:
•Read all instructions before using the treadmill. These instructions are written to ensure your safety and to protect the unit.
•Before beginning any fitness program, see your physician for a complete physical examination.
Il est conseillé de subir un examen médical complet avant d’entreprendre tout programme d’exercise. Si vous avez des étourdissements ou des faiblesses, arrêtez les exercices immédiatement.
•Do not allow children or those unfamiliar with its operation on or near the treadmill. Do not leave children unsupervised around the unit.
•Wear proper exercise clothing and shoes for your workout and avoid loose clothing. Do not wear shoes with heels or leather soles. Check the soles of your shoes and remove any dirt and embedded stones. Tie long hair back.
•Use care when getting on or off the treadmill. Always grasp the handrail when stepping on the running belt and keep the initial speed at or below 1 mile per hour (mph) or 1 kilometer per hour (kph). Never step off the treadmill while the running belt is moving.
•Before the running belt begins moving (before your workout), and after it stops (at the end of your workout), straddle the belt by placing your feet firmly on the right and left trim strips.
•Keep your body and head facing forward. Never attempt to turn around on the treadmill.
•The security clip must be attached at waist level before your workout. A lanyard connects the security clip to the red STOP button on the display console. If you encounter difficulties, a strong tug on the lanyard stops the running belt.
•Do not rock the unit. Do not stand on the handrail(s), display console, or hood.
•Do not overexert yourself or work to exhaustion. If you feel any pain or abnormal symptoms, stop your workout immediately and consult your physician.
