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.
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 open- ings. To protect the floor or carpet from dam- age, place a mat under the treadmill.
4.Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois- ture 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.The treadmill should be used only by persons weighing 115 kg (250 lbs.) or less.
8.Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.
9.Wear appropriate exercise clothes when using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothes 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.
10.When connecting the power cord (see page 13), plug the power cord into an earthed cir- cuit. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. When replacing the fuse, an ASTA approved BS1362 type should be fitted to the fuse carrier. A 13 amp fuse should be used.
11.If an extension cord is needed, use only a 3- conductor, 1mm2
12.Keep the power cord away from heated sur- faces.

14.Read, understand, and test the emergency stop procedure before using the treadmill (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 14).
15.Never start the treadmill while you are stand- ing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.
16.The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.
17.The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including your movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exer- cise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
18.Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key and unplug the power cord when the treadmill is not in use.
19.Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the treadmill until it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY on page 6, and HOW TO FOLD AND MOVE THE TREADMILL on page 18.) You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.
20.When folding or moving the treadmill, make sure that the storage latch is fully closed.
21.Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly.
22.Never insert any object into any opening.
