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 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 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. 11. 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 unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury. 12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor 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 treadmill is not working properly.) 5. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered. 6. The roller guards should be 32mm (1/8 in.) from the rear roller. Adjust the position of the roller guards, if necessary. (The drawing on page 5 shows the location of the roller guards.) 7. Keep children under 12 and pets away from the treadmill at all times. 8. The treadmill should not be used by persons weighing more than 115 kg (250 lbs.). Never allow more than one person on the treadmill at a time. 9. When connecting the power cord (see page 7), 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 CUL-listed surge suppressor of 450 joules minimum surge dissipation with voltage rating of 400 volts or less, rated at 15 amps, with a 1 mm2 (14-gauge) cord of 1.5 m (5 ft.) or less in length. Do not use an extension cord. 14. Wear appropriate exercise attire when using the treadmill. Do not wear loose clothing 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. 15. Never start the treadmill while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while exercising on the treadmill. 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. Adjust the speed in small increments. 18. Never leave the treadmill unattended while it is running. Always remove the key when the treadmill is not in use. 19. To change the incline level of the treadmill, refer to the instructions on page 10. Do not use the treadmill with the incline pins removed. 3
