THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT

Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with PERFORMANT LUBE TM, a high-performance lubricant.

IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking plat- form. Such substances will deteriorate the walking belt and cause excessive wear.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

an equipment-groundingconductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor, and plug the surge suppressor into an approprlata

outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Important: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCl-equipped outlets.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus- trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded outlet is not available.

Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home's power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can result from weather conditions or from other appli- ances being turned on or off. To decrease the pos- sibility of your treadmill being damaged, always use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing I at the right). To purchase a surge sup- pressor, see your local SEARS or call ton-free 1- 800-366-7278 and order part number 146148.

Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup- pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.

The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi- cate whether it Is functioning properly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may change speed or stop unexpect- edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc- tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec- tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having

The temporary adapter should be used only until a propedy grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed by a qualified electrician.

The green-colored dgid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used if must be held in place

by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box

covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec- trician to determine if the outlet box cover is

grounded before using an adapter.
