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 a surface that blocks any air openings. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the treadmill. 4. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from moisture 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 be used only by persons weighing 113 kg (250 lbs.) or less. 8. Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time. 9. Wear suitable exercise clothes whilst 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 9), plug the power cord into an earthed circuit. 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 3conductor, 1mm2 (14-gauge) cord that is no longer than 1.5 m (5 ft.). 12. Keep the power cord away from heated surfaces. 13. Never move the walking belt whilst 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 treadmill is not working properly.) 14. Never start the treadmill whilst you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails whilst 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 movement, 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 whilst it is running. Always remove the key, unplug the power cord and move the on/off switch to the off position when the treadmill is not in use. (See the drawing on page 5 for the location of the on/off switch.) 18. Do not attempt to raise, lower, or move the treadmill until it is properly assembled. You must be able to safely lift 20 kg (45 lbs.) to raise, lower, or move the treadmill. 19. When folding or moving the treadmill, make sure that the storage latch is fully closed. 20. Whilst using iFIT.com CDs and videos, an electronic "chirping" sound will alert you when the speed and/or incline of the treadmill is about to change. Always listen for the "chirp" and be prepared for speed and/or incline changes. In some instances, the speed and/or incline may change before the personal trainer describes the change. 3
