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.The treadmill is intended for home use only. Do not use the treadmill in a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

4.Place the treadmill on a level surface, with eight feet of clearance behind it. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the treadmill.

5.Slots and openings in the treadmill and TV are provided for ventilation, to ensure reliable operation, and to help prevent overheating. These openings must not be blocked or cov- ered. Do not place the treadmill on any sur- face that blocks openings or near a radiator or other heat source.

6.Keep the treadmill indoors, away from mois- ture and dust. Do not place the treadmill in a garage or covered patio or near water.

7.Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

8.You must be able to safely lift 45 pounds (20 kg) in order to raise or lower the treadmill.

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

10.The treadmill should not be used by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

11.Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time.

12.Wear appropriate exercise clothing when using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth- ing that could become caught in the tread- mill. Athletic support clothes are recom- mended for both men and women.

13.Always wear athletic shoes when using the treadmill. Never use the treadmill with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

14.Inspect and tighten all parts of the treadmill regularly.

15.The treadmill operates on 120 V, 60 Hz, AC power only. Consult your dealer before con- necting the treadmill if you do not know the AC voltage in your area, as incorrect voltage might damage the treadmill or TV. Never con- nect the treadmill to other than the specified voltage such as 50 Hz or to direct current.

16.When connecting the power cord (see HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 9), plug the power cord into a surge protector (not included) and plug the surge protector into a grounded circuit capable of carrying 15 or more amps. No other appliance should be on the same circuit. Do not overload the wall outlets as this can result in a risk of electric shock, fires, and other hazards.

17.Use only a UL-listed surge protector, rated at 15 amps, with a 14-gauge cord of five feet or less in length. Do not use an extension cord.

18.The power cord and the surge protector should be positioned so they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them; pay particular atten- tion to the cords at the plugs, the conve- nience receptacles, and the point where the power cord exits the treadmill. Keep the power cord and the surge protector away from heated surfaces.

19.Do not operate the treadmill if the power cord or plug is damaged or if the treadmill is not working properly.

20.If an outside antenna or cable system is con- nected, be sure that the antenna or cable sys- tem is grounded so as to provide some pro- tection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,
