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 in this manual.

3.Place the treadmill on a level surface, with at least eight feet of clearance behind it and two feet on each side. Do not place the treadmill

on any surface that blocks air openings. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, 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 oxygen is administered.

6.Keep children under the age of 12 and pets away from the treadmill at all times.

7.The treadmill should not be used by persons weighing more than 275 pounds. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

8.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 ath-

letic

shoes. Never

use the treadmill with bare

feet,

wearing only

stockings, or in sandals.

 

9.When connecting the power cord (see page 9), plug the power cord into a surge suppressor (not included) and plug the surge suppressor into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or more amps. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

10.Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 9. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local PROFORM dealer or call 1-800-806- 3651 and order part number 146148.

11.Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the con-

trol system of the treadmill. If the control sys- tem is damaged, the walking belt may change speed or stop unexpectedly, which may result

in a fall and serious injury.

12.Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

13. Never move the walking belt while the power

is turned off. Do not operate the treadmill if the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the treadmill is not working properly. (See

BEFORE YOU BEGIN on page 5 if the tread- mill is not working properly.)

14.Never start the treadmill while you are stand- ing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the treadmill.

15.The treadmill is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

16.The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user's move- ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only

as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

17.Never leave the treadmill unattended while it

is running. Always remove the key, unplug

the power cord, and move the reset/off circuit breaker to the off position when the treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the location of the circuit breaker.)

18.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 23.)

You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill.

19.When folding or moving the treadmill, make

sure that the storage latch is fully closed.
