Note: An EXPLODED DRAWING and a PART LIST are attached in the center of this manual. Save the  
EXPLODED DRAWING and PART LIST for future reference. 

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.

3. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with

eight feet of clearance behind it and two feet
on each side. Do not place the treadmill on a
surface that blocks any air openings. To pro-
tect 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 where oxygen is being
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 250 pounds or less. 

8. Never allow more than one person on the

treadmill at a time. 

9. 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 athletic
shoes. Never use the treadmill with bare feet,
wearing only stockings, or in sandals. 

10. 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. 

11. Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that

meets all of the specifications described on
page 8. To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local SEARS or call 1-800-366-7278 and
order part number 146148.

12. 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.

13. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor away from heated surfaces.

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.
