Locating the ON and OFF Switch
CAUTION: Always attach the magnetic safety key’s clip to your clothing before each workout. Use the clip provided on the end of the cord.
Use the ON/OFF (I/O) power switch to turn the treadmill ON or OFF. This switch is located at the front of the treadmill, near the power cord.
Note: The running belt will not move until the magnetic safety key is inserted into the electronic console. Refer to the instructions below for more information about the safety key.
Using the Magnetic Safety Key
The magnetic safety key lets you stop the treadmill’s running belt. Use this key in an emergency or when you are finished exercising. Pulling the key out of the console compartment has the same effect as pressing STOP.

Magnetic safety key
Before you can begin a workout, you must insert the magnetic safety key into the electronic console as shown in Diagram 9. The treadmill’s running belt will not move unless the safety key is inserted and secure inside the electronic console. To prevent unauthorized use of the treadmill, store the safety key in a safe place.
Important: Do not force the safety key into position, it should slide easily into place within the electronic console compartment. If you force the connection, you could break the safety key and void the Precor limited warranty.
