to an electrical source. Adherence to these requirements is necessary to ensure
the user’s safety and to prevent damage to your treadmill.
Electrical Specifications and Precautions
This treadmill requires a grounded 20-amp/120-volt NEMA 5-20 receptacle [North
America] or 15-amp/ 230-volt NEMA 6-15 receptacle [Europe] dedicated circuit for
each machine. The treadmill ships with the appropriate cord and plug to permit
connection to the proper electric circuit. The treadmill must be plugged into an
outlet designated to accept the appropriate plug and voltage configuration. Do
not, under any circumstances, use an adaptor to make this connection. Do not
modify the plug provided with the treadmill. If it will not fit the outlet, contact an
electrician to have the circuit and outlet changed to accept the plug. The voltage
rating for the treadmill is included in the serial tag that is affixed to the rear cross
member of the treadmill.
Circuits with a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) are not recommended for use with-
