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

eight feet of clearance behind it. 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 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 not be used by persons

weighing more than 250 pounds. 

8. Never allow more than one person on the

treadmill at a time. 

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when

using the treadmill. Do not wear loose cloth-
ing 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 suppres-
sor 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 is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage
surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppres-
sor must have a UL suppressed voltage rating
of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge dis-
sipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor
must be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and
15 amps.  

12. Keep the power cord and the surge suppres-

sor 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 BE-
FORE YOU BEGIN on page 4 if the treadmill is
not working properly.)

14. Never start the treadmill while you are stand-

ing on the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the treadmill.
